===Operations=== Within the British Army, there are six main types of infantry: *'''Armoured Infantry''' β armoured infantry are equipped with the [[Warrior Tracked Armoured Vehicle|Warrior]] [[Infantry Fighting Vehicle]], a tracked vehicle that can deploy over all terrain. *'''Mechanised Infantry''' β mechanised infantry (or "protected mobility infantry) are equipped with wheeled armoured vehicles for transporting troops. This is divided into "heavy protected mobility infantry" (with large vehicles such as [[Cougar (MRAP)|Mastiff]]), and "light protected mobility infantry" (with smaller vehicles such as [[Ocelot (vehicle)|Foxhound]]). *'''Light Infantry''' β light infantry are not equipped with armoured vehicles; such units may specialise in jungle and/or arctic warfare *'''Air Assault Infantry''' β air assault infantry are trained to be deployed using [[helicopter]]s, parachute or aircraft. *'''Specialised Infantry''' β infantry configured to undertake training, mentoring and assistance to indigenous forces in partner nations. *'''Public duties''' β infantry on public duties are essentially light infantry units undertaking primarily ceremonial tasks.
