16th Air Assault Brigade Combat Team , the UK's global response force.

Note. Have you kept up with how the British forces are developing/modernizing? I have. It's a bit shocking. To be blunt they appear to be being designed to simply plug into US formations. Even the naming conventions for various units are aligning. Equipment setups are similar. Even advocates for their military outwardly push a European narrative while lusting over the latest US kit. I have no (NONE) visibility on how the Brits fit into our warplans but I'd bet they're basically plug and play to the max. That's not a bad thing. But I do wonder what happens when nation state interests diverge. The same applies to ALL our allies.
