By this time next year, The Royal Wessex Yeomanry will formally become the only Armoured Reinforcement unit in Britain and will be working towards fully integrating with the British Armys three Regular armoured units; The Queens Royal Hussars, The Kings Royal Hussars, and The Royal Tank Regiment.
As a result, the RWxY will also become one of only a handful of Reserve units to be a part of the British Army Reactive Forces. Theyll be held at a state of higher readiness compared to other Reservists and prepared to deploy anywhere around the World to protect Britains interests and national security.
