Oklahoma National Guard Soldiers from the 1st Battalion, 279th Infantry Regiment, 45th Infantry Combat Team take part in Exercise Thunderstruck 2.0 , a live, force-on-force exercise featuring UAS-enabled operations at Camp Gruber Training Center on September 12-13, 2025. The exercise tested concepts for countering an evolving threat environment and drew visitors from across the state and world, including industry leaders, National Guard representatives, active-duty forces, and emergency management officials. Training included a Chinook infill, tactical movement through wooded terrain and clearance of an enemy trench system under simulated multi-domain threats, highlighting the integration of emerging technologies to enhance lethality, improve survivability, and sustain readiness for future conflicts.
