5 RIFLES demonstrating the effectiveness of mechanised/mobile mortars during recent training. A key part of our RIFLES characteristics is knowing that โ€œWe Are Skilledโ€, and training is crucial for keeping our skillsets sharp and ready for the battlefields of the future.

200 years ago reloading the Baker Rifle was a slow process for our predecessors. A well-trained Rifleman could generally manage three rounds per minute. Today things could not be more different. Whilst our tactics and technology have changed, our ethos has remained.

3 RIFLES teamed up with EdinburghDroneCompany and utilised The Field Army funding to bring a 3D printer to Kenya on Ex BULL STORM to 3D print FPV drones for use in the field. Learning from lessons in Ukraine, this was a valuable proof of concept and at the forefront of Army innovation.

3 RIFLES recently deployed to Kenya on Exercise BULL STORM as Task Force Hannibal playing enemy forces against 3 SCOTS and 1 R ANGLIAN Battlegroups. Getting comfortable with the scorching Kenyan temperatures alongside the challenging terrain is a firm test of any Rifleman.
