A Green Beret team sergeant with 2nd Battalion, 10th Special Forces Group (Airborne), U.S. Special Operations Command Europe, operates an unmanned aerial system with a remote device to strike a simulated radar target during Exercise Deep Strike at the Joint Multinational Readiness Center near Hohenfels, Germany, Feb. 22, 2026. SOCEUR conducted the first iteration of special operations deep strike lanes, a pivotal training initiative designed to enhance force readiness by operating in geographically dynamic and complex scenarios, including denied environments with contested electronic warfare spaces. This inaugural training event enhances interoperability and coordination by moving through complex, contested environments undetected while being actively searched for by enemy aerial drones and conventional forces.
