USAREUR-AF International Tank Challenge

U.S. Army Europe and Africa, along with our NATO and Partner Allies, annually host a Tank Challenge. This training event is designed to give participating nations a dynamic and productive environment in which to foster military partnerships, form Soldier-level relationships, and share tactics, techniques and procedures.

The European International Tank Challenge was formerly known as the Strong Europe Tank Challenge. Images, video and stories that are older will appear under that name further down the timeline.

Senegalese soldiers participate in a live-fire zero and grouping weapons range led by U.S. Army Soldiers and members of the Royal Netherlands Army in Dodji, Senegal, May 23, 2024. Basic rifle marksmanship training provided Senegalese soldiers with an opportunity to conduct realistic, dynamic and collaborative readiness training in an austere environment. African Lion 2024 (AL24) marks the 20th anniversary of U.S. Africa Command’s premiere joint exercise, and the fifth year Senegal has hosted. Directed by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF), running from April 19 to May 31 across Ghana, Morocco, Senegal and Tunisia, with over 8,100 participants from 27 nations and NATO contingents, AL24 is the largest annual exercise in Africa.
