    Depends if they're an Armored Cavalry unit or not.

    4 tanks = 1 platoon

    4 platoons = 1 company/1 troop (Cav)

    4-6 companies/troops = 1 battalion/1 squadron (Cav)

    2-5 battalions/squadrons = 1 brigade/1 regiment (Cav)

    As a Cav Scout, we just refered to all Tankers as D.A.T.'s
