JADEX 21-01 is a bi-annual three day-long training event focused on increasing the readiness of air defense assets using the full complement of surface, space, cyber and missile defense systems in the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) area of responsibility.
“This exercise was critical to the assessment of our joint capabilities in achieving air and missile defense superiority,” said Capt. Micheal Wagner, commanding officer of Port Royal. “It served as an opportunity for our Sailors to work alongside their Army and Air Force counterparts, building experience and creating valuable relationships across our armed forces.”
While the scenarios were simulated, the joint team practiced real-world tactics, techniques, and procedures to defend against various threats including ballistic missiles and small unmanned aerial systems.
