Field training exercise
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the similarly-named type of experience-based training program, see Field training program.
A field training exercise, generally shortened to the acronym "FTX", is a coordinated training exercise conducted by military units for training purposes. These are often military simulations conducted in open areas instead of training facilities or military academies, such as training fields, bombing ranges, and even closed-off, typically publicly-accessible areas.
