Allies and partner nations participating are Denmark, Finland, Germany, Israel, Italy, Lithuania, Moldova, Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, and the United Kingdom.
The Allied Spirit exercise series rotates countries as the brigade headquarters leading the exercise, so all participating nations gain experience working together in, and for, a multinational effort.

Allied Spirit X is unique in its ability to provide hands-on experience and testing of secure communications between NATO allies and partners.
