English term

readiness unit

English to Russian Social Sciences Military / Defense
I am actually translating from Finnish into Russian and the Finnish term is "valmiusyhtymä".

The term "readiness unit" seems to be in use in English. There are three of these units in Finnish Army, and they are actually brigades.

I feel that "боеготовое соединение" hints of 'too much of readiness'.

Per the 1983 Military Encylopedic Dictionary a подраздение "...относятся б-н, д-н, эскадрилья, рота, батарея, звено, боевая часть корабля, взвод, отд-е, расчет, экипаж и др."
Vaddy Peters Jun 4, 2013:
подраздение is often used for any size unit
GaryG Jun 4, 2013:
unit If memory serves, I most often see "unit" translated as часть. Conversely, when I've seen часть in a military context it's a regimental-sized organization. "соединенине" is of division echelon and "подраздение" of battalion size, so you might want to take the above on consideration when choosing your term.

Three of the Jaeger brigades are special Readiness brigades with rapid reaction capability. They are more mobile and more heavily armed than the ordinary jaeger brigades, and have a higher proportion of regular to reservist personnel; there is one readiness brigade for each of Finland's 3 territorial commands.
