The II/30 Air Defense Artillery Group, from Mixed Artillery Regiment No. 30, conducted a joint activity with the Air and Space Force within the framework of Exercise DORAMAS—led by Air Defense Artillery Regiment No. 94 and involving all Air Defense Artillery units of the Canary Islands Command of the Spanish Army. This joint training and exercise activity took place on April 22 in Ceuta and involved the use of two C.16 Eurofighter aircraft from the 11th Wing based in Morón (Seville).

These collaborations enable the training of air defense units through deployment in different positions, while also providing a unique opportunity to test the crews operating the various systems deployed: the Fire Director Center (FDC) of the COAAAS-M system, “Skydor” sections equipped with 35/90 guns, and “Mistral” missile firing posts.

Likewise, the exercise made it possible to achieve the unit’s training objectives related to deployment, airspace control, integration into the air defense system, and engagement against aerial threats. All of this represents added value for its contribution to the air defense of the city of Ceuta.
