In total, about 3,3 thousand people took part in the exercises, which were positioned as increasing the level of interaction between the Georgian army and the military of NATO countries.

According to the press service of the European command of the United States, the skills of anti-tank operations in units were tested. In particular, American Javelin anti-tank missile systems were used. American colleagues taught Georgian colleagues how to use these anti-tank systems.
After completing the exercises in Georgia, the US European command once again promised its Georgian partners "comprehensive support to strengthen security."
