It takes over the role of active logistics command from 2016 to 2024.

It will bring together, in a large-scale operation, 6,000 logistician combatants, under the command of the general commanding the B.LOG, himself under the orders of the general commanding the engaged division.

Escort squadrons (121st RT, 503rd RT, 511th RT and 516th RT)
They support the movement of units, recognize and monitor routes. They are a major instrument for controlling gap areas and supporting crossing and relief operations. They guarantee the division commander the orderly deployment of his units on the ground, in accordance with his idea of maneuver.

Armored transport squadrons (516th RT, 511th RT and 503rd RT)
