The opening ceremony of NATO Tiger Meet 2025 (NTM 25) took place today, September 21, at Air Base No. 11 in Beja. 

The international exercise involves around 1,700 military personnel from 12 different countries.

NTM 25, running from September 21 to October 3, aims to strengthen interoperability between allied forces with training focused on realistic scenarios of integrated air defense, offensive air combat, attack, and support for land and sea components, which are essential to respond to current military defense challenges.

During the event, two synchronized exercises integrated with NTM25 will also take place, namely Ramstein Guard – from NATO's Electronic Warfare training program – and FAST EAGLE 25 – an exercise coordinated by the Joint Planning Cell and focused on Special Operations.
