HMAS Warramunga had her recently upgraded capability put to the test during Exercise Malabar 2021. Joined by ships from partner nations, it was the Warramunga's first major deployment since the completion of her Anzac Mid-life Capability Assurance Program upgrade.
Exercise Malabar, held near Guam saw the Anzac class frigate build interoperability with the US Navy Destroyer USS Barry, Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force Ships Kaga, Murasame, and Shiranui, and Indian Navy ships Kadmatt and Shivalik. The four navies conducted a range of maritime operations involving live firings, and anti-submarine warfare operations.
This is the second consecutive year that Australia has been invited to participate in Exercise Malabar and the third time since 2007.
