Eagle Partner 24: le truppe statunitensi e armene utilizzano il veicolo blindato per il trasporto di personale Bastion

>Although Bastion armored vehicles are not typically used by the 12th Peacekeeping Brigade, their deployment in these exercises was necessary due to the presence of American personnel, highlighting the importance of adaptability in contemporary military operations.

>The Armenian 12th Peacekeeping Brigade and the Kansas National Guard trained in riot control, armed vehicle convoy exercises, medical pathways, and checkpoint training during Eagle Partner 24 at the Zar training base in Armenia on July 16, 2024. This strategic choice facilitated troop transport, ensuring increased mobility and protection for soldiers participating in the exercise. The Bastions, known for their robustness and adaptability, proved to be a valuable asset in this international cooperation.

>The use of Bastions by U.S. and Armenian troops during Eagle Partner 24 illustrates not only the flexibility of military equipment in multinational contexts but also the commitment of both nations to strengthening their joint operational capabilities. This is particularly important given Armenia’s concerning position regarding its relations with Azerbaijan. Russia, which is supposed to ensure the region’s security and prevent conflict escalation, is increasingly less present due to the concentration of its forces in Ukraine.
