Results show that troops closely followed the commander’s order, made thorough preparation of exercise documents, mastered different weapons and technical equipment, and handled field and map-based situations flexibly and creatively in line with reality, and ensured absolute safety.

The exercise helped raise troops’ command and staff capability, and combat coordination. It also contributed to the assessment of the past training, combat readiness ability, and coordination among forces in order to later adjust combat plans to be close to requirements and missions in the new situation.
