Arab Army will host the 13th annual international Warrior Competition from 25 to 29 August at the King Abdullah II Special Operations Training Center (KASOTC), drawing widespread participation from allied nations.
A total of 33 teams representing 20 countries have registered for the event, with an additional 13 nations attending as observers. The competition has garnered global attention for its rigorous challenges designed to test endurance, teamwork, and combat skills, utilizing advanced military missions, weapons, and modern facilities that focus on special forces, counter-terrorism, and internal security operations.
This event is part of the Jordanian Armed Forces’ broader training initiatives aimed at enhancing the efficiency and operational readiness of its personnel, ensuring their preparedness to meet future challenges and threats.
Jordan created the competition in May 2009. The Annual Warrior Competition is a combat-oriented competition that pits special operations military and police teams against each other. Teams are assessed in events testing physical fitness, marksmanship drills, medical tasks and written exams.
Every year the competition is redesigned to reflect the ever-changing threats posed by terrorism. Competing “Warriors” are expected to demonstrate competencies and adaptability of marksmanship, endurance, teamwork, tactics and communications on the battlefield. They are observed and judged by a panel of reputable international experts from various professional military and law enforcement backgrounds. Many international and local teams participate every year.
