Notes:
(1) This is our estimate of the number of combat brigades that could
be operational within 21 days in each of the above Land Forces. This
table does not show the number of combat brigades that might be
available for rapid deployment outside of national boundaries.
(2) The figure for Attack Helicopters shows aircraft specifically
designed for land attack operations such as AH-64 Apache, Tiger and
Mi-24. It does not show armed helicopters designed for other roles
and mounting machine guns and/or ATGW. In some cases these Attack
Helicopters are under Air Force Command and not an integral part of
the Land Forces.
