Over the course of two weeks, troops will rehearse various tactical drills, including heliborne operations, employment of surveillance resources and unmanned aerial systems, rock craft operations, mountain warfare, casualty evacuation, combat medical aid, and integrated use of artillery, aviation, and electronic warfare systems. Additionally, subject-matter experts from both armies will conduct working groups on critical domains such as unmanned aerial systems (UAS), counter-UAS operations, information warfare, communications, and logistics.

The exercise will culminate in jointly planned and executed tactical manoeuvres, ranging from live-fire exercises to high-altitude warfare scenarios, with a focus on improving capabilities for United Nations peacekeeping operations and strengthening preparedness for multi-domain challenges.
