To prepare for High Intensity Operations we have conducted exercises in the USA, Norway, Belize, France, Botswana, Italy, Canada, Brunei, Spain, Jamaica and Kenya. Already this year there has been a Battalion live-firing exercise in Kenya.

Due to our new location at Clive Barracks, Shropshire, we are able to access all the main Army Training Areas within a few hours.  Wales is just on our doorstep and provides an excellent facility for robust infantry training.  For smaller scale training we have an area attached to the camp we have use of whenever we need it.

16 Air Assault Brigade exercise regularly on Salisbury Plain, where we have the opportunity in participating in combined-arms training with the RAF providing fast-air and helicopters, and the use of Copehill Down, the village used to train for Urban Operations (OBUA).  Kenya and Oman provide the perfect opportunity for realistic training, as we are able to deploy with elements of the Royal Artillery and Royal Engineers, giving us even more realistic training for Operations - and War.
