The Finnish
Defense Forces have been working hard with improving their readiness since 2014.
The army has developed readiness units that are manned with conscripts serving
6 months of their 12-month conscription in a readiness role. The units are rather
hard hitting, with usually a company of infantry augmented by organic
artillery, anti-aircraft, and main battle tank detachments.
While the Army
readiness units have been operational for five years now, the first two Navy
units reached operational status in December 2021. The unit is formed much in
the same way as the army units, with a core of professional soldiers supported
by the 12 month serving conscripts that make up the bulk of the unit.

What differentiates
the Navy unit from their dry land counterparts, is their ability to be used also
in international situations, in crisis response and giving military support to friendly
nations. The units are trained to international standards and all personnel are
required to speak English and Swedish and most of them also speak Finnish.
The unit is
composed of Coastal infantry and it’s capable of using PASI 6x6 APC on the
ground, Jehu-class landing crafts / Combat boats on the sea and the NH-90
helicopters of the Utti Jaeger Regiment in the air. The high mobility in various
situations is a great asset, both on the coastal areas as well as when supporting
the Army readiness units. The units are also trained to assist in maritime emergency situations.

The current
Finnish readiness structure that is built upon the professional special forces,
conscript readiness units, high readiness reserve local battalions and the
massive reserve force is well suited for responding to most possible threat
scenarios from local incidents to full scale peer war.
Speaking of
the Special Forces, the Finnish Defence Forces have decided to consolidate all
their professional Special Forces units to the Utti Jaeger Regiment, that will
now host both the Special Jaegers of the army and the ETO of the Navy. The move
will allow better development, training, and employment of these high-end
assets. In addition to the SF units, the regiment also has a conscript training
Parachute Jaeger company and the Helicopter Battalion.
