Training
As a cavalry unit, troopers get extensive training on infantry weapons as well as heavy mounted armaments. In addition the unit operates a variety of vehicles including motorbikes, 4x4 Landrovers, trucks and armoured cars. Troopers are put through a rigorous training course involving basic infantry weapons and other military skills. Troopers eventually progress from motorbikes and 4x4s through to heavy truck and armoured car driving.
