Preparing for China: Military firepower on show in the Pacific | 60 Minutes Australia

In 2010, the Australian navy showed off their firepower as they took part in war games with the United States and Pacific nations.

Synopsis | Firepower (2010)
Where do you think the next great threat to world peace will come from? Iran perhaps? Or Iraq? Maybe a cave somewhere in the Afghan mountains? Well, there are some who believe that China, the newest superpower on the world block, is the country to watch. And if they're right, Australia better be ready. Michael Usher has just spent some time with our navy, watching in awe as they played war games with the Americans and twelve other nervous Pacific nations and there was some serious fire power on display.
