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.

The 17th Field Artillery Brigade pushes its limits during Operation Rocky Mountain Thunder in Idaho on March 25, 2025, firing HIMARS and executing tactical maneuvers. This training hones battlefield skills and strengthens unit cohesion. America’s First Corps prioritizes warfighting readiness, ensuring we dominate in the Pacific’s most challenging environments. Every leader must train their unit for war, reinforcing tactical and operational excellence. Readiness starts at home station—every exercise is a rehearsal, and fundamentals are non-negotiable. We prepare our Soldiers for combat, instilling resilience and lethality. Our Army deters conflict, but if called upon, we will fight and win. (U.S. Army Video by SGT Rebecca Watkins)
