The exercises will take place in areas of the so-called GIUK line-the NATO anti-submarine defense line in the North Atlantic (GIUK), which passes between Greenland, Iceland and the UK, which hosts the SOSUS (Sound Surveillance System) sonar anti-submarine sound surveillance system.
Last week, warships and submarines from nine NATO countries arrived in the port of Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland, to participate in the exercise.
“The goal of Dynamic Mongoose is to enable participants in complex and realistic combat training to improve their interoperability and combat skills with submarines and surface ships,” the statement said.
During the exercise, ship operations will be conducted to counter enemy submarines to break NATO lines and enter the central part of the Atlantic. They will be attended by three submarines, 11 warships, as well as 16 anti-submarine patrol aircraft from the US, UK, Germany, France, Canada, Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands and Portugal.
Recall that in early June, NATO exercises Baltops-2022 began off the coast of Sweden. This includes 45 warships, 7,000 military personnel, 75 aircraft and helicopters.
It was later learned that Russia had also started exercises in the Baltic. The aggressor country involved in the maneuvers is approximately 60 ships, boats and support vessels, more than 40 aircraft and helicopters, as well as up to 2 thousand pieces of weapons, military and special equipment.
