1. 1-1 CAV in FTX "Sabre" and "Comanche Ramp"
The 1st Squadron, 1st US Cavalry Regiment "Black Hawk", based in
Germany, conducted two exercises in early 2002. Since the
dissolution of the Warsaw Pact there are no longer many
opportunities for NATO troops to conduct large exercises in open
civilian areas in Germany. However, that all changed with these two
U.S. exercises, where this Cavalry Squadron was able to indulge in
a tactical road march, and conduct combat in forested and 'urban'
areas in a former U.S. base. There are numerous photos of Abrams
M1A1HAs and Bradleys in action, or out of action as the case may be
when they got stuck in the mud!.
2. Sweden's Armor Might in "Operation Vareld 2003"
In March of 2003, the Swedish Army conducted its largest exercise
of the year in central Sweden. Two mechanized battalion-sized
battle groups were put through their paces in a combination of
forested and urban terrain, incorporating such tactical movements
as a breakthrough, flanking movements and seizing a village. The
article feature generous numbers of photos of Swedish vehicles such
as Stridsvagn 122 main battle tanks, CV 9040A armored infantry
fighting vehicles, CV 90s and Brobandvagn scissors
bridge-layers.
3. Black Boar Leopards - Leopards in "Schwarzer Keiler"
In its program of restructuring, the German Armor Branch is
modernizing its fleet of Leopard tanks, including the upgrading of
Leopard 2A5s to a 2A6 specification. In March 2004, Exercise
"Schwarzer Keiler" (Black Boar) was conducted to give
force-on-force maneuver and live-fire training for Panzerbataillion
203. This article covers Leopard 2A6s being prepared for a river
crossing with snorkels, as well as the river crossing itself. In a
fascinating array of subsequent attacks and counter attacks through
forests, plains and over rivers, the objective is finally taken,
action is well described in the text and in photographs. Featured
vehicles include Leopard 2A4s, 2A6s, Fuchs PiFu, Buffel 3 ARV,
