US coaches Polish forces in a drone-focused drill based on lessons from Ukraine

The drill uses Ukraine-tested tactics to train 32 NATO nations in drone warfare and infiltration as tensions with Russia rise.

  • On Friday, U.S. Army Green Berets began training Polish special forces in Germany, simulating enemy infiltration and drone strikes using tactical lessons learned from the conflict in Ukraine.
  • Designed months ago, this marks the first time a NATO ally has participated, signaling increased cooperation against potential Russian action as tensions escalate between NATO and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
  • Polish teams must infiltrate past a U.S. airborne unit and traverse 100 kilometers of Bavarian countryside, shedding military uniforms to blend in with civilians in areas like Amberg, population more than 40,000.
  • If spotted, soldiers face simulated threats from military police, dogs, and drones; one enlisted soldier warned, "now you have the entire Russian arsenal coming at you" during training.
  • Military officials expect most of the 32 NATO nations will eventually participate in the exercise, planned to run several times a year as a cornerstone of future alliance tactical standardization.
