The name assault company is perhaps a misnomer. The function is more one of support. The unit has three elements. i.e. a tactical platoon that can act as a reserve for its sister companies, a jump assault platoon that can act as a rapid insertion force and a heavy weapons platoon that is normally allocated to platoons in the rest of the brigade. It is unusual for the company to act independently
