Morocco and Germany are co-hosting the multinational military exercise Arcane Thunder 24 from August 5th to 16th, according to the official website of the United States Government.
The exercise will feature approximately 200 U.S. Soldiers from the 2nd Multi-Domain Task Force and Multi-Domain Effects Battalion, joined by roughly 100 Allied and partner forces from the United Kingdom, Germany, and Morocco, according to the same source.
Arcane Thunder 24 is a theater-wide exercise focused on refining the precision and synchronization of electromagnetic warfare capabilities.
This exercise, according to the press release, is vital for strengthening strategic relationships and enhancing the ability to ensure that partner forces are equipped with the capability to synchronize as well as employ non-lethal measures across all domains in the face of potential adversaries.
“Arcane Thunder 24 will apply non-lethal effects…to ensure Allied and partner nations have a decisive advantage against potential adversaries across all domains and the human, physical, and information dimensions of the operating environment,” commented Col. Patrick Moffett, 2nd Multi-Domain Task Force commander.
He emphasized that these military exercises are another “opportunity to further strengthen cooperation and highlight the longstanding partnership between the U.S. and Morocco through the testing and synchronization of capabilities.”
The press release mentioned that the 2nd Multi-Domain Task Force will lead Arcane Thunder 24, a joint, combined training exercise focused on the coordinated employment of non-lethal effects across all domains.
It explained that the exercise aims to enhance the ability of joint forces to operate freely within the U.S. European Command theater of operations.
Moffett said that “this year we continue to enhance our interoperability with Allied and partner forces under command structures arrayed across more than 3,000 kilometers from Germany to the North Atlantic Ocean and into Morocco.”
Arcane Thunder 24 marks its second iteration and will be conducted in Morocco for the first time, reads the statement, emphasizing that this exercise further solidifies commitments made to the nation’s security.
