This exercise, in addition to the flights of the Latvian Air Force flying squadron, included for simulation purposes the aforementioned flights of the 'Ramstein Alloy'.Durante los mismos, también se inyectaron incidencias terrestres que permitieron activar las medidas de protección de la fuerza de la UDAA.

The exercises were a great anti-aircraft training opportunity for the unit, as it was possible to test the defence capabilities of the air base and to further improve joint procedures with Latvian personnel.
