    TS11 is a major bilateral exercise designed to train Australian and United States forces in planning and conducting combined operations across the full spectrum of military operations from conventional conflict to peacekeeping and humanitarian assistance in order to improve Australian–U.S. combat readiness and interoperability.

    Around 22,000 Australian and U.S. personnel are participating in TS11. Personnel and assets from the Australian and U.S. Navy, Army and Air Force as well as the U.S. Marines are training in six defense training areas in central and northern Queensland and the Northern Territory, while maritime forces are also operating in the Coral, Timor and Arafura Seas.
