A Soldier from the Oklahoma Army National Guard and the Malaysian Army’s 5th Infantry Division take aim at enemy positions during a force-on-force exercise during Keris Strike 26 near Kota Belud, Malaysia, July 22, 2026. Also known as tactical engagement simulations, force-on-force exercises use laser transmitters (like MILES) and blank ammunition to realistically simulate direct-fire engagements in a field environment. Keris Strike incorporates warfighting battle drills to build interoperability among American, Australian and Malaysian forces, showcasing the U.S. Army’s commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific.(U.S. Army photo by Sgt.
