Experience, quality and community
Founded in 2004, 16 Air Assault Milsim Community prides itself on delivering
a highly authentic Arma 3 military simulation based on the British Armed Forces.
Predominantly focused on air assault and airborne operations, we aim to deliver a dynamic and
immersive milsim experience built around a military command structure, realistic communication, and combat
manoeuvres.
We pride ourselves on the consistency and quality of the hundreds of operations we have conducted over the years, and we look forward to continuing the legacy of our current and former members.

Roles
we plan, prepare, and execute operations with all aspects in mind
Airborne infantry
The infantry is the core of our unit and represents the main effort, with various forms of support from surrounding units. The airborne infantry platoons are capable of deploying by parachute, rotary-wing aircraft, vehicle or on foot, then carry out a range of mission sets.
Manoeuvre support
The manoeuvre support element is employed in support of the airborne infantry, predominantly focused on direct and indirect fire support. It can provide mortar, anti-tank, anti-air, anti-materiel and sniper support from man-portable and vehicle-mounted platforms.
Logistics support
The logistics element ensures mobility, capability and sustainability. By providing ammunition, fuel, equipment, recovery, transport and explosive ordnance disposal (EOD), the logistic element enables operations within the unit by sustaining all the elements of the operation.
Medical support
Having played a key role in the development of the advanced medical systems in Arma, we pride ourselves on the medical capabilities and simulation we offer in our operations. Our Combat Team Medics and Combat Medical Technicians are trained and developed by real-world counterparts.
Signals
Communication is a key aspect of executing operations and coordinating efforts on the ground and in the air. The signals element is capable of establishing and maintaining radio, data and battle management systems, ensuring communication and coordination within the unit.
Joint Helicopter Command
Being an airborne unit, we are greatly dependent on the air side which is made up of JHC, who are capable of providing air interdiction, air support, close air support, utility flights, MEDEVAC, CASEVAC and parachute drops of personnel and equipment, by rotary-wing and fixed-wing aircraft of various types.
Artillery
The airborne artillery element provides close support to the infantry by delivering timely and accurate indirect fires. Fielded as light artillery, capable of rapid deployment into austere environments, they enable the unit to project firepower in support of manoeuvre and defensive operations alike.
Fire Support Team
The fire support team (FST) is responsible for coordinating indirect fires and air support for the ground commander. As an FST member, you operate in a small team or attach to a ground element, taking responsibility for delivering accurate fires onto designated targets.
Military Intelligence
The Military Intelligence team exists to provide greater depth and realism to our operations, by providing intelligence, Zeus control and role players. MI also serves as the intelligence function in the planning phase.
