As a major US intervention in China-Taiwan tensions looks increasingly likely, Australia has joined forces with the US to prepare for potential disaster.
The missiles come out of nowhere, flattening hangars, fuel dumps and barracks. It s a worst-case scenario. But it s one Australia is practising for with the United States. Joint exercise Cope North 2021 began on the remote Pacific island of Guam last week. It ends on February 19. It s a yearly event that brings together the United States, Japan and Australia in cooperative training for humanitarian relief and combat. This year, the controversial F-35A Lightning II strike fighter will take part.
