NATO will also deploy 150 aircraft, 70 vessels and 10,000 ground vehicles, as well as the NATO Response Force (NRF) with the Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF). 'Trident Juncture' gathers around 51,000 participants from NATO and partner countries Sweden and Finland. The exercise simulates the case of the Alliance, which is called after a hostile force enters a state territory of a NATO member. According to NATO figures, "southern forces" formed by countries such as Germany, Italy and Britain will fend off an attack by "northern forces". The latter are to consist among other things of troops of the USA, Canada and Norway. In the second round, the scenario then envisages a counter-attack of the "southern forces" on the "northern forces".
