7.28. The Army will be designed to operate globally on a persistent basis. A new Ranger Regiment will be the vanguard of this expeditionary posture as part of an Army Special Operations Brigade. This Regiment’s four all-arms units will be aligned with the new Divisions of Infantry and initially seeded from the current Specialised Infantry Battalions: 1 SCOTS, 2 PWRR, 2 LANCS and 4 RIFLES.

7.29. In addition, a new Security Force Assistance Brigade will be established.

You're literally proving yourself wrong. It doesn't say that the SOB will be part of the SFAB. That doesn't even make sense; how can a brigade be within a brigade? – SɱαɾƚყPαɳƚʂ22 (Ⓣⓐⓛⓚ) 00:09, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Name Change proposal

According to the British Army's website, the Specialised Infantry Group has been redesignated as 'The Army Special Operations Brigade'. See here. The structure is described as 'four ranger battalions' and the 'JCTTAT'. However, this is a primary reference.

Though, I propose the title of the page changes to Army Special Operations Brigade (United Kingdom). J-Man11 (talk) 13:40, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@SmartyPants22 you're opinion on the name change? J-Man11 (talk) 02:55, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wait: I would support it, except for the fact that the sourced doesn't state that it used to be the Specialised Infantry Group; for all we know the SIG could have been stood down and the SOB raised with no continuity between the 2 (and hence a new article would be needed). I say wait a little bit until more clearer details have been released. (FOI perhaps?). – SɱαɾƚყPαɳƚʂ22 (Ⓣⓐⓛⓚ) 15:43, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
