The proposed Army would retain a divisional structure while making individual armoured brigades capable of deploying independently. Two regular and two reserve brigades could form an armoured division when a larger campaign required it. A rapid-reaction division centered on the Royal Marines would provide globally deployable forces, including units supported from Bay class ships. Another division would concentrate on peacekeeping and similar missions. Each division would have a distinct operational role.
