*Synopsis | Sending a Message (2024)*
It might not be a conventional tactic, but military forces all around the world love to show off. And it’s exactly what the United States and 28 of its allies, including Australia, is currently doing on and around the Hawaiian islands. RIMPAC 2024, as it’s called, is an extraordinary spectacular of the world’s most lethal weaponry. It’s loud, menacing and quite overwhelming. For this story, reporter Dimity Clancey and her team were granted extraordinary access to the operation, which included filming on board the massive USS Carl Vinson Nimitz-class aircraft carrier, as well as securing a rare interview with the US Chief of Naval Operations and member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Lisa Franchetti. America and its partners view RIMPAC 2024 as the perfect opportunity to send a decisive message to any would-be adversaries: Mess with us at your peril.
