ObjectiveProvide training and support to the Armed Forces of Ukraine to help ensure Ukraine's territorial integrity.
Date24 February 2015 – 17 February 2022
Executed byOperation Orbital United Kingdom
Outcome
  • Training provided to 22,000 Ukrainian military personnel
  • Training suspended ahead of the Russian invasion of Ukraine
  • Launch of Operation Interflex[1]

Operation Orbital was the code-name for a British military operation to train and support the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It was launched in 2015 in response to the 2014 Russian annexation of Crimea. It provided training to over 22,000 Ukrainian military personnel before it was suspended ahead of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. A successor, Operation Interflex, which involves a larger, British-led multinational training programme, was launched in the United Kingdom soon after.[2][1]
