New brigade established in Adelaide following major army operations shake-up
A new army brigade will be established in Adelaide while critical combat units are sent to the country’s north under a major shake-up of army operations.
The army’s new “order of battle” is centred around recommendations from the independent Defence Strategic Review.
In the army’s biggest restructuring in over a decade up to 1,000 infantry and armoured regiment soldiers will be relocated from Adelaide to Darwin.
There are concerns the relocation of soldiers will cause disruptions for many Defence families.
The changes will raise the army’s World War 1-era tenth brigade creating a “future focused” unit to operate mobile long-range strike and air defence batteries.
