I've been having problems getting an exact answer. The infantry brigades are essentially light infantry formations, the issue is whether there are 3 bns or just 2 bns plus their assigned FA and spt bns. I've also seen articles that state that these formations may be upgraded to Stryker as well. I have seen nothing "official" saying yea or nay as to this.
The heavy brigades are supposed to be made up of either 2 armd and 1 mech or vice versa (these are 3 company battalions) supported by a SP FA and a support battalion.
The Stryker brigades are 3 battalion with a towed FA and a support battalion.
The airborne and air assault brigades are both 3 battalion, towed FA and support battalion.
