AOMORI, Japan – Soldiers with 1st Battalion, 1st Air Defense Artillery Regiment field forward-deployed vital PATRIOT equipment on the fly during Keen Sword/Orient Shield 2021 to rehearse their ability to rapidly deploy in a moment’s notice from Okinawa to northern Japan Oct. 24.
Keen Sword 21 is a joint expeditionary bilateral exercise, which allows Japan Self-Defense Forces and U.S. military forces to work together across a variety of areas, enhancing the interoperability of U.S. and Japanese forces. This year, Orient Shield 21-1 is being executed in conjunction with Keen Sword 21. The exercise will demonstrate the U.S. Army’s ability to integrate into the Joint Force and enabled multi-domain operations that include long-range precision fires and integrated air defense capabilities.
