The ability to equip Dismounted Close Combat (DCC) personnel with the highest levels of personal protective equipment, tactical communications, weaponry and munitions; while providing them with the optimal freedom of movement and mobility to manoeuvre around the battlefield remains out of reach for many militaries. Instead, sources closely associated with the British Army explained to Armada how the most tactical levels of the DCC community continue to attempt to maintain some kind of balance between levels of body armour worn as well as ammunition and equipment carried. Additionally, sources associated with the NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) Special Operations Headquarters in Mons, southwest Belgium, reiterated to Armada how the special operations community also continued to face similar problems, even when receiving larger investments per soldier in relation to more conventional armed forces.
