COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — On September 22, the U.S. Space Force successfully concluded BLACK SKIES 23-3, the third iteration of Space Training and Readiness Command’s exercise series focused on tactical Space Electromagnetic Warfare (SEW).
Established in 2022, BLACK SKIES was conceived as an advanced training forum for tactical units to understand the intricacies between operational planning and tactical tasks.
“The success of BLACK SKIES 23-1 was a catalyst for stimulating interest and collaboration among external partners. The essence of integrated domain warfare became a focal point, fostering a conducive environment for joint participation and partnerships,” said U.S. Space Force Lt. Col. Scott Nakatani, 392d Combat Training Squadron Commander.
BLACK SKIES 23-3, as a result, witnessed a substantial increase in participation, tripling in size with over 170 individuals from diverse units contributing their expertise to the exercise.
