This exercise focused on special airborne operations, demonstrating a high level of operational readiness and multi-military co-ordination.
According to a statement, the training exercise focused on practicing different airborne insertion techniques from both fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft, further enhancing the skills of those participating. The exercise notably marked a first in the Eastern Theater for training on airborne operations from the Chinook Helicopter.
The training session offered a vital chance for troops to improve their skills in military operations, which are crucial for quick mobilization and readiness for missions. The exercise highlighted the important part that airborne forces play in modern warfare planning, allowing for swift and decisive actions in various operational settings, the statement said.
To maintain a high level of readiness and encourage teamwork in response to emerging security threats, such training programs are essential. They help ensure that the country's defence forces remain flexible, responsive, and prepared to address any situation that may arise.
