Which unit type is primarily composed of infantry forces?

• A. Infantry
• B. Army Aviation
• C. Armor Tracked
• D. Air Defense

Answer: (A)

Infantry-focused units are built around foot soldiers whose primary role is ground combat. This makes the infantry unit the main repository of infantry forces, organized into squads, platoons, and companies designed for moving, assaulting, and holding ground. Other unit types focus on different capabilities: Army Aviation centers on aircraft for mobility and fire support; Armor Tracked centers on tanks and heavy armored vehicles; Air Defense concentrates on protecting formations from air threats with missiles and anti-aircraft artillery. While infantry units may have attached support, their core identity is grounded in infantry manpower.
