Minister for Defence Stephen Smith and Minister for Defence Materiel Jason Clare announced that the Royal Australian Navy will lease an additional ship, the Windermere, to enhance the Navy’s amphibious capability during the forthcoming cyclone season.
This adds to HMAS Choules which will arrive in Australia in December and HMAS Tobruk which is currently in maintenance in preparation for the cyclone season which commences in November.
The additional ship has been leased to maximise the Royal Australian Navy’s ability to respond to humanitarian and natural disasters over the cyclone period.
It is capable of supporting around 100 passengers and can carry 1000 tonnes of cargo.
The Windermere has been leased from 14 October to 31 January 2012, with the option to extend to the end of February 2012.
