An interesting video to watch @Joe Shearer
The Swedes have set up quite the qualitative "combined arms" at the battalion level itself (and doing an overall 1:1 mix between tanks and mech infantry).
This contrasted with our more division level approach w.r.t RAPID (in a 2:1 mix at brigade level of mech infantry and armour)....though swedes (at the video end) do have 2:1 or 1:1 flexible choices at the company level too.
I especially enjoyed attention to detail they have paid to their logistics trains for these battalions.
Hope there is a similar long term qualitative plan and implementation for our RAPID doctrine too.
