SPECIAL FORCES REGIMENT CONDUCTS SUSTAINMENT JUMP

/ 27 February 2023

THE SPECIAL Forces Regiment conducted its first Quarterly Airborne Sustainment Jump at its headquarters in Fort Magsaysay, Nueva Ecija on February 21 to 24, 2023.

Brig. Gen. Ferdinand B. Napuli led Special Forces in conducting the sustainment jumps where SF operators were lifted 2,000 feet from the ground by fixed wing or a rotary wing assets. SF operators then jumped mid-air with the objective of landing on strategic drop zones, regroup, and perform special operations.

Troops, officers, and generals from across major services of the Armed Forces of the Philippines who finished the Basic Airborne Course gathered at the Air Operations Department of the Special Forces School for the jump.

The event was one of the largest gatherings of airborne troopers.
