Preparations for AIRPOWER22 are in full swing: a preparatory militia exercise by the Lower Austria-Kopal Infantry Battalion was held over three days in Zeltweg at Hinterstoisser Air Base. Until then, since the summer of 2021, the staff and companies have already been doing monthly video conferences over 21 voluntary preparation days for exploration, topic seminars such as “crowd management” and meetings. Parts also attended the close combat instructor course in autumn 2021 in order to be able to train the comrades for the security operation at AIRPOWER22.

The AIRPOWER22 in 2022 is also the largest exercise of the army and has a high training value for all soldiers, especially the militia, logistics and medical staff.
