RAN Canberra Class Ships
Australia's Canberra Class LHDs (Landing Helicopter Docks) are amphibious assault ships developed for the Royal Australian Navy in a joint venture between Tenix Defence and Navantia (Spain).
Project details
Following the success of the RAN Border Patrol Vessel bid, I was commissioned by Tenix Defence (since acquired by BAE Systems Australia) to create visualisations of the LHD (Landing Helicopter Dock) for the $11.7b joint venture bid with Navantia of Spain.
I developed a comprehensive set of illustrations of the vessels in mission mode as well as internals such as the berthing dock and staff quarters, for the executive summary of the bid.
The bid was successful and the vessels were completed at the Tenix naval ship facility at Williamstown, Victoria. The illustrations were subsequently featured in a wide range of publications globally.
