The results of the exercise will serve as bases for the unit to develop suitable training plans in the future with the aim of raising officers’ commanding ability and staff-work, and strengthen their coordination in combat to meet requirements of training and combat readiness missions in the new period. 

Having checked the unit’s preparations and witnessed their subordinates’ performances, organizers evaluated that the division built reality-based combat plans as regulated, and its participating troops completed all contents of the exercise, meeting all requirements of the exercise while ensuring absolute safety.
