    U.S. Air Force Airmen assigned to the 1st Engineering Installation Squadron dig a trench to lay network cable to operate a mobile Tactical Air Navigation system during Exercise Heavy Rain 2025, Nov. 18, 2025, in Grostenquin, France. This was the first use of a Cyberspace Infrastructure Damage Assessment and Restoral Actions (CIDARA) team in a real-world exercise. Heavy Rain is a squadron-up exercise focused on observing, experiencing, and feeling the real-world impact of communication limitations, forcing participants to work through workflow disruptions, process jams, and complete communication denial.
