TAMPA, Fla., April 2, 2018 — About 3,600 U.S. service
members will partner with Jordanian military forces in Jordan April 15-26
during Exercise Eager Lion 18, one of U.S. Central Command’s premier exercises,
Centcom officials announced today.
Eager Lion is a major training event that provides U.S. and
Jordanian military forces the opportunity to improve their collective ability
to plan and operate in a coalition-type environment.
Variety of Scenarios
A wide variety of scenarios -- from long-range bomber
missions to maritime security operations to a ground force attack of a
fictitious adversary -- will occur throughout Jordan during the event.
The U.S. Agency for International Development’s Office of
U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance play a larger role this year, as will Jordan’s
National Center for Security and Crisis Management, which coordinates and
unifies national-level capabilities to confront and manage any crisis Jordan
might face.
