Yugoslavia in 1935 recognized the lack of mobility of their infantry divisions was very dangerous and tried to find a way to at least mitigate somewhat that problem. They recognized motorization was the way to go but at the same time rejected the trend of mixing cavalry and motorized units. The final decision was the Motorized brigades, a mix of truck mounted, motorcycle mounted and tank/armored cars forces supported with for Yugoslavian standards is large quantity of AT and AA weapons. Their main purpose is to act as a fire brigade to try to close holes in the front lines until the arrival of the slower infantry divisions. Also large tank purchases were made to Atlantis, Mexico and Poland that were used to build the Brigades's armored battalions, with the remainder vehicles being used to create independent armored units. The unit is on the Yugoslavian thread. Feel free to discuss.

The issue, I suppose, with a motorized "fire brigade" for Yugoslavia is whether the transportation infrastructure is there yet to allow a motorized unit to move much faster than an infantry unit could. If it can, then this sort of unit is useful.

Being taken care off thanks to the Ministry of the Interior program to create jobs and improve the commerce between the provinces.
