U.S. Army paratroopers assigned to 173rd Airborne Brigade and Dutch paratroopers assigned to 11 Luchtmobiele Brigade prepare to perform a joint forcible entry exercise in Greece as part of Swift Response 2023 at Aviano Air Base, in Pordenone, Italy on May 12, 2023.
Swift Response 23 is one of three major exercises that make up the Dynamic Employment of Forces to Europe for NATO Deterrence and Enhanced Readiness 2023 or DEFENDER across the Baltic Sea and Mediterranean regions.
Swift Response is designed to ensure combat credible forces are ready and postured in theater to respond to any threats against NATO Allies partners. Swift Response 23 features the Spanish airborne brigade, Brigada Paracaidista, leading three near-simultaneous airborne operations in Estonia, Greece and Spain. After the successful seizure of objectives, host nation-partnered live fire training will take place.
The 173rd Airborne Brigade is the U.S. Army Contingency Response Force in Europe, capable of projecting ready forces anywhere in the U.S. European, Africa or Central Commands' areas of responsibility.
