‘AJEYA WARRIOR-25’ is a bilateral military exercise conducted between India and the United Kingdom, reflecting the strong and historic defence ties shared by the two nations. Held at the Mahajan Field Firing Ranges in Rajasthan, the exercise brings together equal troop strength from both sides to train under a UN mandate, focusing on counter-terror operations in semi-urban terrain. This collaboration enhances interoperability through joint planning, tactical drills, and field exercises, helping both armies prepare for complex modern security challenges. The long-running series, active since 2011, continues to play a key role in strengthening mutual trust and operational synergy between India and the UK.
