The HMAS Balikpapan, a Balikpapan-class heavy landing craft, holds a notable place in the history of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). Commissioned in 1971, the vessel was part of a class specifically designed to meet the demands of transporting troops and equipment to shore during amphibious operations. Named after the World War II Battle of Balikpapan in Borneo, this vessel played a pivotal role in ensuring the RAN's ability to swiftly deploy forces across the Asia-Pacific region. Throughout its active service, HMAS Balikpapan was involved in a variety of operations that showcased its versatility, including disaster relief missions and regional exercises that emphasized the RAN's strategic and humanitarian capabilities.
