A two-storey extension of the current Navy Training Systems Centre has resulted in developing almost 3,500m² of extra floor space.

The new facility would accommodate training for crews of the RAN’s two new Supply Class auxiliary oiler replenishment ships. It will be used by the Military Operational Speciality Code (MOSC) personnel and will house specialist training rooms and equipment.

Australian Defence Industry Minister Melissa Price said: “The training centre extension includes specialist training rooms and simulators to train navy’s crews in how to operate and maintain the new Supply Class vessels.

“These works are the first to be completed under the Navy Capability Infrastructure sub-programme, which involves approximately $2bn of new facilities and infrastructure works to be delivered across Australia over the next seven years.
