The 1,000-strong force, to be called the Ranger Regiment, will be sent to conflict zones to train and fight alongside the troops of countries such as Somalia. The Army is to form a new 1,000-strong force unit which will be called the Ranger Regiment. The force, which is a Tier 2 unit, will also support the SAS and the SBS - who are Tier 1 units. The Ranger Regiment is designed to operate at the higher end of the threat spectrum. But the difference of the Ranger Regiment will be that it both advises and accompanies these troops in action.
