- No matter how skilled our aircrew are, they need munitions that work to hit their targets. That's where our Gunnies come in. 💣
Our aircrew at Exercise Diamond Storm count on a skilled team of armament technicians and engineers-affectionately known as Gunnies and ARMOs respectively-to prep and load weapons, bullets, and chaff and flares that are fit for purpose.
No. 1 and 6 Squadrons have consolidated their armament technician workforces at RAAF Base Darwin to support F/A-18F Super Hornets and EA-18G Growlers during the exercise.
Exercise Diamond Storm is the culmination of the six-month Air Warfare Instructor Course, and will continue over the Northern Territory until 24 June.

Gunnies, the most unique trade in the RAAF. Well done boys from a retired old school Gunnie!
Thanks from across the ditch! 👍✈️🇳🇿
Love the f18s and the bombs they are great 😊
Even the music can't make this seem exciting. Poor blokes got shafted at the recruiting office.
What do you mean? This is awesome! Can’t wait to do this 👍
Pretty cool job right there.
Does anyone else think one of the f18 looked like a top gun? or just me.
Australian Air Force should think about lca Tejas
No we have Super Hornets and Lightning's already
What kind of fuse is on those JDAMs?
They are inert Mk 82 warheads, so no fusing.
@@TheRpg1964 Right, but I don't recall seeing that type of tip before. At least not in the states.
