BAE Shipbuilding Site Visit
The Osborne Naval Shipyard is the premier site of
Australia’s Continuous Naval Shipbuilding and Sustainment Enterprise being the
construction home of the Hunter class frigates, the country’s next generation
anti-submarine warfare frigate. It shares a near 40 year history with the Royal
Australian Navy building the Collins class submarines, Hobart class destroyers
and two Arafura class offshore patrol vessels. Presently, HMAS Hobart is
undergoing an upgrade program that is increasing its capability with the installation
of new, advanced technology. This worksite visit will take you through all
aspects of shipbuilding. You’ll need to be wearing steel cap footwear, long
pants and sleeves. Beforehand attending this WSV we will need to supply
the organisation with all participants full name, home address and Nationality.
