Estonian and German forces will train to defend critical infrastructure near the capital of Tallinn next month, a scenario in line with NATO’s new concept of strengthened forward defense, according to officials from both countries.

The drill, dubbed “Baltic Tiger,” will see German Air Force troops of the “Friesland” regiment exercising with Estonian forces at Ämari air base, located some 25 miles southeast from Tallinn, a Luftwaffe spokesman said. According to its website, the formation specializes in defending airfields under combat conditions.

It’s a the first time the Luftwaffe is sending such forces for an exercise out of the country, the spokesman said. At the same time, German navy expeditionary infantry forces will train for securing Miinisadam naval base, the military port on the Tallinn Bay. Around 150 German personnel will be involved in the exercise scheduled to run throughout October.

Estonian officials were tight-lipped about details.

“Objectives of the drill are related to deepen the relations between participants and give an understanding of tactics, techniques and procedures used for operations in specific areas and how this is related to overall effort of force, because Ämari and Miinisadam are real locations,” a military spokesperson said. “Estonia is gladly using that opportunity to look into valid plans and how to make them more responsive to emerging threats.”
