| formed in 1992. The creation followed the Options for Change proposals which recommended through the amalgamation of the Royal Irish Rangers and the Ulster Defence Regiment of the new Regiment came from the UDR. This produced a regiment with eleven battalions: Regular Army - General Service 1st Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment 2nd Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment Territorial Army Rangers 5th Battalion, Royal Irish Rangers Regular Army - Northern Ireland Resident Battalions (or "Home Service") 3rd (County Down) Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment 4th (County Fermanagh and County Tyrone) Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment 5th (County Londonderry) Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment 6th (County Armagh) Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment 7th (City of Belfast) Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment 8th (County Tyrone) Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment 9th (County Antrim) Battalion, Royal Irish Regiment Note: Northern Ireland Resident Battalion is the official Army terminology for what was previously known as the "Home Service" (a term still mistakenly used). The Northern Ireland Resident Battalions filled the role formerly occupied by the UDR; conducting counter-terrorism operations in Northern Ireland under Operation BANNER. The 1st and 2nd Battalions, by contrast, served worldwide as general service battalions. Because of its size, the regiment was removed from the King's Division and existed outside the divisions of infantry. In 1993, one of the regular battalions (2 R IRISH based in Lemgo) was disbanded. In 2001, the number of Northern Ireland Resident Battalions was reduced to three: 2nd Battalion - amalgamation of 7th and 9th Battalions 3rd Battalion - amalgamation of 3rd and 6th Battalions[5] 4th Battalion - amalgamation of 4th and 5th Battalions |
