- Arnhem Thunder is the Air Force's largest domestic training exercise for 2021.
Operating out of RAAF Bases Darwin and Tindal, approximately 50 aircraft and more than 500 personnel have taken part. It's not just the first time F-35s have deployed to the Northern Territory but the first time Air Combat Group has deployed F-35s, Super Hornets, and Growlers all in one location.
Arnhem Thunder provides Air Force with important force generation training, focusing on high-end collective training and involving multiple Force Element Groups (FEGs).

My missus calls me ‘the growler.’
I dont even own a plane.
Growling is so sexy in bed
Strange... She calls me that too
FFS this went south very quick……
So did your wife 😂
Proud to be an Aussie.
@@ANZACS100 no u :)
@@ANZACS100 it’s cool you can acknowledge without fear your orientation like that.
You’re lucky you live in a country such as Australia and be able to make such gender defining statements.
Good for you gay man 👏
PS enjoy that sweet, sweet burn
@@youwebz who says I am from Australia , you ignorant F
Confidence in Australian air power
The start gave me chills.
Okay but... could you please take it easy on the Hornets?
Those are Canada's future fighter jets of peace.
They should go to RAN🇭🇲 NAVY.
Whoever’s doing the editing on the latest run of videos is doing a top notch job
Same with the camerawork
I love this for its entire rotation, setting the f35s almost daily was awesome!
Another great video showing Australian might
The afterburners at night were a nice touch.
Great opportunity for you all to test your skills , well done everyone :-).
Awesome footage!
YES YES YES.... let's build up our AIR force in our northern part of the country💪
Awesome wow great videos well done stay safe
Gotta love this
YAAAAS ! Aussie Aussie oi oi oi !!!🤠
This exercise is just at the right time.
In this politically unstable world we live in with foreign powers maneuvering in the seas to our north it's comforting to know our ADF is on the job. Australia and New Zealand Canada and United States along with the British have a staunch brotherhood.
Also Australia is loved by the nation's in the Pacific where we always take care of our neighbors and provide humanitarian aid when needed.
Together we can deter totalitarian regimes from bullying our friends and neighbors. Thanks to all members of the ADF for your service.😍
nice job team
Thats the blow right there, go Aussies Go
Yeah when I play up I get growled at by my mother, I loved the dehaviland mosquito, are the Davidson plum in season are they
I want a name like "Wing Commander Matthew Harper"...
Some fast jet demo's would be nice RAAF.
Airmen 🇦🇺❤️
cow long would it take to train me from scratch, to fly the x35, I think I will need a bigger chair cos I'm 130kg, maybe add a XXXL parachute as well.
Beautifully and professionally produced video, showing ranked F/A-18s, a couple of Growlers, some other aircraft... and one F-35A. Sorry, but the question has to be asked. As of March this year, the RAAF had about thirty of them at Williamstown, NSW, less than half the number ordered 18 _years_ ago. How many went to the NT, and how many actually made it off the ground at Tindal or Darwin?
@@chloewinkworthartist They've already announced how many we've ordered and how many we've actually got. Don't you think that if they managed actually to fly, say, five or six of them in the actual NT, where there's serious weather and red dust, they'd want to show it? On account of that would make them look, you know, credible?
@@chloewinkworthartist You accuse me of being a pseudointellectual, while you use words like "subtextural", not to mention "coercsion", whatever you think that means. Of course it is "they" the government, who have announced the numbers we have. Who else could have made that announcement? And it is "they" the RAAF, who are flying them, not you or I, so therefore not "we". But I said that it's "we" who have, that is, own, these aircraft. That is, I am implicitly including the RAAF among us. I spent some time in my long-ago youth actually getting shot at by communists, and occasionally shooting back. It wasn't much, but can you say the same? What am I? I'm an Aussie who wants the best for this country, who's convinced that the F-35 isn't it. The RAAF will do the best with it that can be done, I'm sure, but that's no great comfort in the face of its defects, which are not the RAAF's fault. We've been sold a pup. A very, very expensive one.
@@chloewinkworthartist What the hell? Neurolinguistics? Fishing for logistics? Are you a screw loose? What on earth does that even mean? I always thought the F-35 was not a good idea. One aircraft was not going to replace at least four or five specialists. Now I _know_ that it wasn't a good idea. It's been "in development" for twenty years, in production for fifteen, and it's still returning totally unacceptable availability, sortie rate and ground-to-air time. The RAAF deserves better. Australia deserves better.
@@chloewinkworthartist So, I'm creating division. That's what anybody does who opposes any government policy whatsoever. Is that your problem? We all have to sing the same tune - your tune? And you have the infernal brass-bound gall to call me a communist. They're totalitarians, just like you. Projection, it's not just for the movies.
@@chloewinkworthartist You're dead right, I'll continue to bag the F-35. There is still free speech in this country, no matter how much semiliterate loons want to shut it down. Word salad? That's rich, coming from someone who averages four punctuation, grammar or spelling errors a line. Where'd you go to school, Hard Knox Junior Primary? And I was the one who told you that communism was totalitarian. Totalitarianism is what _you're_ about, with your "creating division" nonsense. Logistics? It isn't about logistics, mostly, which refers to means of supply. It's about maintenance requirements and readiness. You're only demonstrating that you haven't a clue what you're talking about.
Ok
💪 oz oz oz 💪
Hi again
Great stuff - but the RAAF needs to keep all the aircraft it has and buy more, and put F-35Bs on those two helicopter carriers.
We can defend ourselves for a months or two .
I think we should retain the F-18 Super hornets (next 15+ years) and even moth ball and retain some of the other F-18, they could be transferred to RAAF Pearce for training (or mothballed) and activated in the event of a major conflict. The capacity for Australia to replace aircraft that are destroyed is limited.
I will note we have a potent punch with RAAF's current capability. Be great to see loyal wingman progressed (great idea). I think for Australia given our small population we need 'force multipliers' such as these.
I would have expected more of the planes flying upside down?
So we don't put you guys off - we also hold the cameras upside down...
Is the RAAF keeping the F-18s in service after all the F-35's arrive?
Yes
@Democrats cheated here is the proof puhleeaase. Lame
Super Hornets will stay, classic hornets are no more in Australia
F18 platform forever.
F111c🇭🇲
🇭🇲💪
10/10 , better than the Sub Bullshit
Great Video!
Few points.
Why are we not looking at creating underground storage for our fighter aircraft in Darwin and at Richmond airbase? If there was a conflict between the US and China it has been publicly stated by the Chinese government that our defense infrastructure would be the target of long range missile attack.
Second, why has the government not procured a missile defense operating system for all our major cities? It’s not like we can’t afford it especially since we are spending $90 billion on French submarines.
Third, why haven’t we bought or purchased a small aircraft carrier so as to extend our fighter plane capability into the Indo Pacific. With the limited range of fighter planes and even with the new long range missiles that will be utilised I can’t see the point of all our fighter aircraft except as purely defensive systems operating on or close to the Australian mainland. Sure they are still great in terms of a conflict with Indonesia but they don’t pose any immediate threat.
More orders from US
The Australian version of Red flag??
Exercise Pitch Black is probably the Australian version of Red flag
The timing of all of these new DOD videos showcasing Australian military strength is interesting given the ongoing issues with China. For all of his failings I have to give credit to Scomo for standing up to the CCP. After all the CCP is the modern day version of the Natzi Party.
Do we have any Female fighter pilots
Ofcourse the RAAF has female fighter pilots
Not many. But a decade ago they had none. There is at least one woman F35 pilot. So I guess there aren’t for this video.
Permitted since 1993. First inducted only a few years ago though.
A guy I used to work with at Suncorp became a Super Hornet pilot and he married a woman who also flew the same aircraft in his squadron. 60 minutes did a story on them.
yes but ,there having second thoughts if in a real war.
Impressive, but no match for New Zealand’s Air Force.
Lo how many planes do New Zealand have?
Lol,
Yeah those Cessna 152s and PA28s of the NZ Airforce pack some real punch.
@@nickj1663 thanks as an Aussie I feel so much safer now...
@@nickj1663 one day they will get their A-4 Skyhawks back, then we will be in real trouble.
I'm sure the Chinese aren't watching this
They believe they are unstoppable and can do no wrong
@Democrats cheated here is the proof That was funny, but sadly true.
@Delta is the vaccine The chinese airforce is patetic compared to the RAAF and USAF
You ever notice the RAAF never fires a weapon during these exercises ? Billions spent on F35s and F18s including support but don't you dare waste munitions on training .
@@chloewinkworthartist No just facts , every aircraft took off fully armed . And every aircraft returned with the same stores , including their external fuel tanks were still attached . Every other country practices with live munitions except Australia and New Zealand.
@@chloewinkworthartist A childish response from a civilian of course , its not about the boom or the chubby . It's about accuracy and experience , a soldier on the firing range doesn't shout bang at the target and get awarded a bullseye . So grow up
@@chloewinkworthartist Tanks Karen , I served in the Navy and the Army 15 years service in total . The warheads in peace time are removed and fitted with dummies such as yourself .
@@arrow5878 Considering F35 carriers internal weaponry I don't see how you can say this. How are you making this assumption after you've clearly watched two videos of the RAAF before. I've seen plenty of times the Raaf has practiced it's weaponry capability.
@@Bbouy1HD Yeah , I remember an F18 shooting an antiship Harpoon missile at a static target a few years back . And the Media and government ministers condemned it due to cost , $A2,000,000
Do you think it's smart showing fast jet pilots facial features. It's akin to showing faces of special forces members
This has not been RAAF or USAF or French, German or RAF policy for that matter. We are a liberal democracy.
Been reading too many Tom Clancy movies?
@@dj-two-timing-timmy yes, because the movies are draining to read.
Yeah because by the time we find all the pilots bodys we will be invaded right. I agree with the tom clancy comment.
@@russellmiles2861 ah you took it to literal, you know what I meant but thanks for the correction, love people who troll the comments looking for errors
The last word most Western pilots will ever hear SUKHOI its bail out or die from there
@@devonlord99 Really the Su35 is part Stealth is faster more powerful better range payload and weapons than any US or UK fighter they followers the F22 in Syria undetected laughing about how easy it would be to kill them. When the Su57 arrived the US withdrew the F22 from operations. It was withdrawn completely after Sand ate every part of the Aircraft. It requires 40 man hours of service for every hour of flight and can't be fully serviced outside America the F35 35 man hours. They are all fault ridden 15 years past their delivery date with around 600 made 150 designated training only. The Aircraft the US Top Gun school calls the "little Turd" An Aussie think tank described the F35 we have run every scenario in every configuration possible it always ends the same. The F35 short on fuel out of Weapons turns for home the Su35 with superior speed range and payload "simply run them down and kill them" we expect in Combat Operation within 2 weeks the F35 will cease to exist at best its numbers so depleted it ceases to be operational.
@@devonlord99 The J00 K got the Navy Version the most fault ridden of the 3 types they took delivery of 13 so they didn't have to explain why the new Carrier had no Aircraft to an outraged public. Rule Britania the Mouse that Roared 🐭
@@yfelwulf I absolutely love how shitposters like you come up with all these lovely tales. Were you there in Syria, on either side, when these events occurred?
ive noticed your a consistent enermy from the CCP .the bigger they are the harder they fall.
@@aerotuc And Israelistan 🇺🇲 is collapsing so fast they're rapidly pulling troops from all over the world home to save cash. 10 Trillion printed in 6 months just to see another day out. Look up the Weimar Republic to see your future. No one has to attack Israelistan it's all over bar naming they day it happens.
