Israel’s War Simulation Ending This Week

Known as “Chariots of Fire,” a month-long war simulation across all of Israel’s defense forces concludes this week. The most recent drill included sending an advanced Dolphin-class submarine and two warships into the Red Sea for training exercises.

This news article explained this stage of the simulation, which I mentioned in yesterday’s Tipping Point Show:

“Navy fighters from the warship and submarine fleets returned this morning from a complex and continuous training exercise in the Red Sea,” said Israel Navy commander Maj.-Gen. David Sa’ar Salame.

“[It was a] long-range drill that simulated a number of scenarios, including achieving naval superiority and freedom of movement in the Red Sea. The Navy will continue strengthening its operational capability and expand its area of action,” Salame said.

The Chariots of Fire simulation allowed every aspect of Israel’s armed forces—including ground forces, air force, navy, logistics, intelligence and more—to walk through the steps of an all-out war on multiple fronts. It was aimed at strengthening Israel’s defenses and resilience, along with communication between multiple branches.
