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.

An MH-139A Grey Wolf arrives at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Mont., March 5, 2024. The crew flew roughly 1,600 miles over a course of five days from Duke Field, Florida, where the aircraft underwent extensive training and preparation prior to its arrival. The Grey Wolf was designed to be the replacement for the Air Force’s aging fleet of UH-1N Huey helicopters. It provides the ability to cruise 50% faster and farther than the Huey helicopters, while also having a 30% larger cabin and capability to lift 5,000 pounds more. (U.S. Air Force video by 2nd Lt.
