The ARF Component Commanders’ Conference was held yesterday at #NRDCITA Headquarters in Solbiate Olona, bringing together @SHAPE representatives and the Commanders of the Allied Reaction Force Components across the 2025, 2026 and 2027 rotation cycle. The event provided an important opportunity to ensure continuity, coordination and operational alignment among Land, Maritime, Air and Special Operations Forces, while sharing lessons learned and strengthening common procedures in support of future Mission Rehearsals.
The conference also marked a key transition moment, thanking outgoing Component Commanders for their contribution and welcoming the incoming leaders who will guide their components through the next readiness cycle (Pictures in comments👇). With a focus on readiness, force projection and upcoming Mission Rehearsal Activities, including Steadfast Dagger 2026 and further deployments in the Western Balkans, the #ARF continues to enhance its ability to provide #NATO with a rapid, credible and flexible response to emerging crises and threats.
