Platoon Level Organization
At the platoon level, there were three squads of twelve each led by a sergeant, a four man command team with a lieutenant, senior platoon sergeant, a medic and radio/maser man for a total of 40 men/platoon.
Platoon Riflemen
The riflemen were equipped with CES and 9mm ACRs, combat armor and 4mm Gauss Rifles when available. Nearly everyone has a few 4cm RAM grenades for the under-slung pump action grenade launchers fitted to each rifle, and a few claymore anti-personnel flechette mines are common as well for ambushes and night security.
Platoon Heavy Weapons
Within each platoon there are 3 Gauss LMG, 3 ATGM package launchers, and one field mounted 10cm mortar with an ammo box of twenty HE rounds for the platoon. It is carried as cargo in the back of the company command post.
Platoon Transportation
The platoon uses HU-420 Botond Grav APCs (3 per platoon and 1 for the Company HQ).
Regimental Autonomy
Each regiment is an autonomous combat command with embedded support and logistics.
These are combined arms units down to the company and platoon level in many cases.
The regiments have their own artillery and armor.
