据国外媒体8月1日报道，英国陆军将成立一个被称第6师的混合作战师，主要关注情报，监视、网络战和数字宣传任务，这是英国陆军更广泛的重新平衡战略的一部分。
英国陆军中将伊万·琼斯宣布新作战师的成立，他表示：“随着传统战争与非常规战争之间的界限越来越模糊，战争的性质将继续发生变化。”
作战师
第6师的成立，将是英国陆军第一个指定的信息战部队，将帮助军队跟上各种各样的威胁。
琼斯补充说：“第六师通过专门的步兵营等利基能力，专注于网络、电子战、情报、信息和非常规战争。”
信息战一直是世界军队越来越关注的问题，尤其是由于俄罗斯企图发起的网络攻击事件增多。第6师将是英国针对这些威胁的最新防线。
琼斯说：“我们需要发展我们的不对称优势，并将重点放在情报、信息行动，网络、电子战和非常规战争的编排上。”
琼斯表示：“第1师提供专业士兵和装备来发展其他国家的军队，应对全球范围内的灾难和人道主义危机，并使我们的作战师能够进入。”
第3师将保持其作为军队主要装甲队的地位，由第1装甲步兵旅，第12装甲步兵旅，第20装甲步兵旅，第1炮兵旅，第101后勤旅，第25工程兵团和第7防空部队组成。
在宣布组建第6师的视频中，军方表示，它将有助于解决不符合正常战斗指定的州和非国家对手的“灰色地带”行动。
琼斯补充道：“这些野战部队在冲突门槛之上和之下都必须同样适应。”
第6 师将部署于Upavon和威尔特郡，并有大约14500人的部队。

The British Army is to form a hybrid warfare division known as Division 6 to focus on intelligence, surveillance, cyber-warfare and digital propaganda was created as part of a wider rebalancing of the British Army.
Head of the Field Army Lieutenant-General Ivan Jones announced the new division, saying: “The character of warfare continues to change as the boundaries between conventional and unconventional warfare become increasingly blurred.”
Division
It will be the UK Army’s first designated information warfare grouping and will help the army keep pace with an ever-diversifying range of threats.
Jones added: “6th Division focuses on cyber, electronic warfare, intelligence, information operations and unconventional warfare through niche capabilities such as the specialised infantry battalions.”
Information warfare has been of increasing concern to the world’s militaries, not least due to an increase in attempted cyberattacks from Russia. Division 6 will be the UK’s newest line of defence against these kinds of threats.
Jones said: “We need to develop our asymmetric edge and bring focus to the orchestration of intelligence, information operations, cyber, electronic warfare and unconventional warfare.”
The formation of Division 6 is part of a wider rebalancing activity which the army
Jones said: “1st Division provides specialist soldiers and equipment to develop other nations’ armies, deal with disaster and humanitarian crises worldwide and enable our war-fighting division.”
The 3rd Division will maintain its status as the army’s main armoured formation made up of troops from the 1st Armoured Infantry Brigade, 12th Armoured Infantry Brigade, 20th Armoured Infantry Brigade, 1st Artillery Brigade, 101st Logistic Brigade, 25th Engineer Group, and 7th Air Defence Group.
In a video announcing the formation of Division 6, the army says it will help address the ‘grey zone’ of actions by state and non-state adversaries which do not fit into the normal designations of combat.
Jones added: “The field army must be equally comfortable operating both above and below the threshold of conflict.”
The 6th Division will be based in Upavon, Wiltshire, and have a force of around 14,500 personnel.
