It consists of four infantry-centered brigades - two of these contain regular light cavalry regiments, while a third serves as a parent formation for units of the Army Reserve. *'''[[4th Infantry Brigade and Headquarters North East|4th Light Brigade Combat Team]]''' **[[Light Dragoons|The Light Dragoons]] (Light Cavalry) *'''[[7th Infantry Brigade and Headquarters East|7th Light Mechanised Brigade Combat Team]]''' **[[Royal Scots Dragoon Guards|The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards (Carabiniers and Greys)]] (Light Cavalry) *'''[[19th Light Brigade (United Kingdom)|19th Brigade]]''' **[[Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry|The Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry]] (Army Reserve){{efn|group=note|name=reservelight|Reserve regiment providing reinforcements to light cavalry units.}} **[[Queen's Own Yeomanry|The Queen's Own Yeomanry]] (Army Reserve){{efn|group=note|name=reservelight}} ====3rd (United Kingdom) Division==== [[3rd (United Kingdom) Division|3rd (UK) Division]] is the UK's main reaction force, intended to act as a lead formation alongside NATO, and primarily consists of a pair of armoured brigades containing the army's armoured and armoured cavalry units, and a third brigade containing the remainder of the army's armoured cavalry units tasked primarily with reconnaissance for deep fires from [[MLRS]] systems. *[[12th Armoured Infantry Brigade|12th Armoured Brigade Combat Team]] **[[Royal Tank Regiment|The Royal Tank Regiment]] (Armoured){{efn|group=note|name=mbt|Regiment equipped with [[main battle tank]]s.}} **[[King's Royal Hussars|The King's Royal Hussars]] (Armoured Cavalry) **[[Royal Wessex Yeomanry|The Royal Wessex Yeomanry]] (Army Reserve){{efn|group=note|name=mbt}}{{efn|group=note|Reserve regiment providing reinforcements to armoured units.}} *[[20th Armoured Infantry Brigade|20th Armoured Brigade Combat Team]] **[[Queen's Royal Hussars|The Queen's Royal Hussars (Queen's Own and Royal Irish)]] (Armoured){{efn|group=note|name=mbt}} **[[Royal Dragoon Guards|The Royal Dragoon Guards]] (Armoured Cavalry) *[[1st Deep Reconnaissance Strike Brigade Combat Team]] **[[Household Cavalry Regiment]] (Armoured Cavalry){{efn|group=note|The Household Cavalry Regiment is one of two operational regiments formed of squadrons of the [[Life Guards (United Kingdom)|Life Guards]] and the [[Blues and Royals]]; these are units of the [[Household Cavalry]], which is a separate administrative formation from the Royal Armoured Corps.}} **[[Royal Lancers|The Royal Lancers (Queen Elizabeths' Own)]] (Armoured Cavalry) **[[1st The Queen's Dragoon Guards]] (Light Cavalry) **[[Royal Yeomanry|The Royal Yeomanry]] (Army Reserve){{efn|group=note|name=reservelight}}
