BTW guys, the place where this exercise conducted is the same place Khalid bin Alwalid's army took to attack Persia in a great battle dubbed Battle of Chains:

The great Battle of CHAINS: Khalid bin walid's great strategy ~ CSS, PCS, ISSB and other Competitive examination preparation

So, how does the successful completion of "Northern Thunder" affect the crisis in Syria? Has it changed anything on the ground? FSA is still under immense pressure and Putin didn't budge even an inch. So, what was the point? Something is missing here and I can't put my finger on it.
