Kenya Defence Forces showcase the seamless coordination between ground forces and air assets, during air ground integration (AGI) training as part of Justified Accord 2025 (JA25) in Archers Post, Kenya, Feb. 17, 2025. AGI included coordination between joint Kenya and U.S. artillery assets and aircraft, highlighting the critical role of communication and precision in a joint operational environment. JA25 is the premier U.S. Africa Command (USAFRICOM) exercise in East Africa, designed to enhance multinational combat readiness, strengthen crisis response capabilities and empower allies and partners in the region. Led by U.S. Army Southern European Task Force, Africa (SETAF-AF) and hosted by Kenya, Djibouti and Tanzania, JA25 integrates high-intensity training scenarios that sharpen warfighting skills, increase operational reach and enhance the ability to execute complex joint and multinational operations. The exercise runs from Feb. 10–21, 2025. (U.S. Army video by Sgt. Zack Stine)
