Maritime air power at KAKADU24 - thrilled to have this multinational team join the event! (Yes I’m in there!) #KA24

[Royal Australian Navy @Australian_Navy]

Today, on World Maritime Day, we honour our past and present mariners, and those of our partners.

From RIMPAC and Exercise Kakadu, to overseas operations and regional presence deployments - our people are working round-the-clock with our region, for our region.

[Paul O'Grady @og10952557]

Awesome partners - Stronger Together! Thanks for being part of KAKADU 24 #KA24

If you come to Australia - you have to try our staple foods! 😎

[Royal Australian Navy @Australian_Navy]

To get a true taste of Australia you need to try our most famous foods 🇦🇺 Ex Kakadu participants tried both Vegemite and Tim Tams. We were a bit surprised by how many of them liked both,but we don't recommend them both at the same time! Maximum participation. Maximum benefit. 💪

[Royal Australian Navy @Australian_Navy]

Full steam ahead 🚢

Working together to integrate adaptable and state-of-the-art technologies with our partner nations 🤝
