In October 2022, EasiBridge® was spotted in the hands of one of the British Army’s most elite engineering units — 23 Parachute Engineer Regiment, the specialist engineer regiment that provides engineering support to 16 Air Assault Brigade. An Instagram post shared on 17 October 2022 by the regiment’s @airborne_sappers account showed personnel training with EasiBridge kit, with the caption: “Orders followed by rehearsals are getting the @airborne_sappers… easibridge. Great to see these old kits still…”
The post was shared in the context of training preparations related to the broader operational environment following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — placing EasiBridge in the hands of Britain’s rapid deployment airborne engineers at one of the most operationally significant moments in recent European security history.
For defence researchers, procurement officers, and military equipment buyers searching for airborne-compatible portable bridging systems, parachute regiment engineering equipment, rapid deployment gap-crossing solutions, or lightweight assault bridge systems for air assault operations, the 23 Para Engineers endorsement confirms EasiBridge’s credentials at the highest end of British military capability. A bridge that fits in duffel bags is exactly what airborne sappers need.
