Package about how the roar of the fast jets and the rumble of the naval gun fire has been an extraordinary show of fire power during Exercise Talisman Sabre 2011, but the crucial link to ensuring all assets work together in a cohesive effort is a small group of highly trained personnel known as the Joint Terminal Attack Controller’s or JTAC’s. JTAC’s are trained to call in and direct fire power to attack a known enemy position. The combined Live Fire Exercise held on Townshend Island, in the Shoalwater Bay Training Area, has provided both Australian and US JTAC’s with the opportunity to guide fire support from US FA-18 and Australian FA-18 Super Hornets, Tiger Attack Reconnaissance Helicopters and Australian and US ships. Exercise Talisman Sabre 2011 is a US led, Australian supported bilateral exercise that is aimed at training US and Australian forces in planning and conducting combined operations and improving US-Australian interoperability. Produced by Chris Moore.
