The 29th Heavy Mechanized Brigade (Ukrainian: 29-та важка механізована бригада) is a military formation of the Ukrainian Ground Forces.[2][1]

History

[edit | edit source]

29th Heavy Mechanized Brigade is a unit of the Ukrainian Ground Forces.[2][5]

It was originally formed as the 29th Tank Battalion at some point during 2025; however, due to the corps-brigade reformation within the Ukrainian Defense Force, the brigade was upscaled to the size of a heavy mechanized brigade in late September 2025.[1][6]

In October 2025, the insignia of the brigade was revealed.[5][7]
