The Army Ranger Wing (ARW), Ireland's elite counterterrorism force, is preparing for significant infrastructure improvements with plans to build a new €46 million headquarters and training center at the Curragh Camp in Kildare. Defence Minister Simon Harris is set to present these plans to the Cabinet, emphasizing a commitment to provide adequate facilities for military personnel. The investment follows recommendations from the Commission on the Defence Forces, which underscored the need for improved infrastructure to support the ARW's expansion and mission readiness. This comes after the unit's notable operations, including a major drug seizure in 2023.
