Armoured Reconnaissance Platoon*
*
The armoured recce platoon is the "eyes" of an armoured battalion. The platoon is used to infiltrate or break through the enemy front line to perform its mission behind enemy lines. It has 4 recce sections that all have BMP-2 for transport and a motocycle section.*
*
The platoon is usually divided to cover the battalions whole area of the responsibility but it can also be used as a platoon to perform quick strikes against weaker enemy targets. The platoon is usually sent to battle area some hours or a day before the battalion moves in, so speed is important when performing the mission.*
*
To simulate the special and independent nature of the platoon, each section is its own formation.*
