battery, is at Plymouth. The other two batteries are at Arbroath and
Poole. Those at Poole provide the amphibious warfare Naval Gunfire
Support Officers (NGFSO)
All Regiments equipped mainly with 155 mm AS 90 now have the ability
to deploy on operations using the 105 mm Light Gun.
Following the 2010 SDSR there will be
considerable changes to the operational roles of many of the above
Regiments. Details are awaited.
