Third Annual Guardian Arena

Assistant Deputy Chief of Space Operations for Operations Brig. Gen Nick Hague, speaks at opening ceremony for third annual Guardian Arena at Kennedy Space Center, Fla., Dec. 8, 2025. Thirty-five teams, comprised of United States Space Force Guardians, United States Air Force Airmen, civilians and representatives from international allies and partners, participated in the world’s largest Space Force exercise. The third annual Guardian Arena competition provides an opportunity to emphasize the continuous importance of cultivating a combat-ready mindset, link military and civilian space enterprises, and instill esprit de corps with an opportunity to operationalize the Guardian Ideals.
