Rising Thunder- Japanese/US Live Fire exercise at Yakima Firing Center

This is from September. While a combined Japanese tank/US Stryker live fire is pretty interesting, what caught my eye is that both are firing actual service (HEAT) ammunition. That’s pretty unusual stateside, where mostly practice ammunition (with no explosives) is used.
