Häme Armour Battalion

By combining the Häme Jaeger Battalion and the Tank Battalion, the Häme Armour Battalion was formed in 2003. This unit specialises in the training of wartime armoured troops. In five different basic units of the battalion the training is given to those ground force formations with the biggest striking power - in other words, the most central units from the point of view of National Defence.
