Australia's Navy faces a unique task. With our very large coastline comes an enormous amount of water to patrol and defend. Coupled with this we are also tasked with roles in international aid, disaster relief and wartime activities, among many others. These roles require a number of different ships, submarines and aircraft, with these and other equipment and systems being constantly revised and upgraded to better fulfill their tasks and meet the needs of the modern day Navy.
With Australia's uniquely large coastline, the Royal Australian Navy must operate a wide array of vessels to cover the many and varied roles involved in defending Australia's territorial waters and participating in international missions. From advanced long-range Patrol Boats across our northern seas, to modern Frigates and Support Vessels assisting in international operations, life aboard one of our Navy's ships can take you anywhere.
