Exercise Talisman Sabre 2025 (TS25) is set to be the largest, most strategically significant iteration yet of this biennial joint military exercise. Involving Australian Defence Forces (ADF), the United States military, plenty of other nations (and likely "observers" from China's PLA Navy), TS25 will test interoperability, combat readiness, and strategic coordination across land, sea, air, and cyber domains. With growing tensions in the Indo-Pacific, these war games take on new importance as Australia and its allies prepare for an uncertain future.In this video, we break down what to expect from Talisman Sabre 2025, the likely response from China, and what this massive military drill means for Australia’s national security, defence strategy, and international alliances.Today, we're talking tactics.#TalismanSabre #TS25 #Australia #USMilitary #ADF #WarGames #China #IndoPacific #DefenceStrategy #MilitaryExercise #NationalSecurity #JointOperations #PacificDeterrence #PLA #AustraliaUSAlliance #MilitaryTraining00:00 Australia and the USA Are Going to War...
