The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, if he will provide an update on Iron Titan.

Answered by Al Carns

TITAN is the exercise name given to the biennial validation of Divisional Troops which started with 3rd (United Kingdom) Division in 2023 on exercise IRON TITAN. The prefix TITAN changes as part of the exercise naming convention depending on the unit being exercised. The success of the initial Exercise TITAN in 2023, has resulted in an annual cadence of exercises to facilitate the training and validation of both 1st and 3rd (United Kingdom) Division.
