Soldiers with the 3rd Battalion, 265th Air Defense Artillery Regiment prepare an AN/TWQ-1 Avenger at a staging area on March 13, 2026, in preparation for an upcoming field exercise at the Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC). The AN/TWQ-1 Avenger system is a mobile, short-range air defense (SHORAD) system designed to protect ground forces from low-flying aircraft, helicopters, drones and cruise missiles. JRTC is one of the Army’s premier combat training centers, using realistic, high-stress scenarios to train units on mission-essential tasks and readiness for large-scale operations.
