The collaboration can improve training on specific types of warfare and help SOF access unique capabilities.
The US military plans to strengthen partnerships with its allies to enhance the readiness for US SOF teams. During the SOF Week 2024 exhibition, defence authorities stated that close collaboration can improve training for special operators and enable access to unique capabilities.
