Введение
Полк Хузарен Принц Александр – броневой корпус Королевской голландской армии, названный в честь принца Александра, второго сына короля Виллема II. Этот полк является правопреемником бывшего 3-го гусарского полка, сформированного в 1814 году (истоки восходят к 1672 году). Он был известен как Красные (из-за красного цвета на форме) или Гвардейские гусары, но никогда не входил в состав гвардейских полков. Полк Хузарен Принцессы Катарины Амалии, являющийся ротой в 414-м танковом батальоне, – это кавалерийский полк, сформированный в конце 2020 года в результате объединения трех других голландских кавалерийских полков, находившихся на тот момент в состоянии расформирования: полка Хузарен Принц Александр, полка Хузарен Ван Ситзама и полка Хузарен Принц ван Оранье.
