U.S. Army Sgt. Aden Miller, a cavalry scout assigned to 1st Squadron, 2nd Cavalry Regiment, tests the firing mechanism on a Hero-30 tactical loitering munition system on Red Diamond range as a part of Saber Strike 24 at Bemowo Piskie Training Ground, Poland, April 19, 2024. The Hero-30 uses a pneumatic launch tube to send the system into the air, allowing for a small noise and thermal signature when used in the field, reducing operator visibility. DEFENDER is the Dynamic Employment of Forces to Europe for NATO Deterrence and Enhanced Readiness, and is a U.S. European Command scheduled, U.S. Army Europe and Africa conducted exercise that consists of Saber Strike, Immediate Response, and Swift Response. DEFENDER 24 is linked to NATO’s Steadfast Defender exercise, and DoD’s Large Scale Global Exercise, taking place from 28 March to 31 May. DEFENDER 24 is the largest U.S. Army exercise in Europe and includes more than 17,000 U.S. and 23,000 multinational service members from more than 20 Allied and partner nations, including Croatia, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Georgia, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Netherlands, North Macedonia, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
