The '''Mobile Brigade Corps''' ({{langx|id|Korps Brigade Mobil}}) abbreviated '''Brimob''' is the [[SWAT|special operations]], [[paramilitary]], and [[Police tactical unit|tactical unit]] of the [[Indonesian National Police]] (Polri). It is one of the oldest existing units within Polri. Some of its main duties are [[counter-terrorism]], [[riot control]], high-risk [[law enforcement]] where the use of firearms are present, [[search and rescue]], [[hostage rescue]], and [[bomb disposal]] operations. The Mobile Brigade Corps is a large component of the Indonesian National Police trained for counter-separatist and counter-insurgency duties, often in conjunction with military operations.<ref name="brimob" />

The Mobile Brigade Corps consists of 2 (two) branches, namely Gegana and Pelopor. Gegana is tasked with carrying out more specific special police operations tasks such as: Bomb Disposal, [[CBRN defense|CBR Handling]] (Chemistry, Biology, and Radioactivity), Anti-Terror (Counter Terrorism), and Intelligence. Meanwhile, the Pelopor are tasked with carrying out broader and [[paramilitary]] operations, such as: Riot control, Search and Rescue (SAR), security of vital installations, and guerrilla operations. Brimob is classified as a [[Police tactical unit|Police Tactical Unit]] (PTU) and is operationally a Police [[SWAT|Special Weapons and Tactics]] (SWAT) unit (including [[Detachment 88|Densus 88]] and Gegana Brimob) which supports other general police units. Each regional police (Polda) in Indonesia has its own Brimob unit.

==History==
Formed in late 1945 as a special police corps named ''Pasukan Polisi Istimewa'' (Special Police Troops) with the task of disarming remnants of the [[Japanese Imperial Army]] and protecting the chief of state and the capital city. Under the Japanese, it was called  {{nihongo|Special Police Unit|特別警察隊|Tokubetsu Keisatsutai|not to be confused with the IJN [[Tokubetsu Keisatsutai|Tokkeitai]]}}. It fought in the revolution and was the first military unit to engage in the [[Battle of Surabaya]] under the command of Police Inspector Moehammad Jasin.

On 14 November 1946, Prime Minister Sutan Sjahrir reorganised all ''Polisi Istimewa'', ''Barisan Polisi Istimewa'' and ''Pasukan Polisi Istimewa,'' merged into the Mobile Brigade (Mobrig).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Korbrimob Polri {{!}} Jiwa Ragaku Demi Kemanusiaan |url=http://korbrimob.polri.go.id/page/sejarah-brimob |access-date=2024-07-31 |website=korbrimob.polri.go.id}}</ref> This day is celebrated as the anniversary of this Blue Beret Corps. This Corps was reconstituted to suppress military and police conflicts and even coups d'etat.

On 1 December 1947, Mobrig was militarized and later deployed in various conflicts and confrontations like the [[Madiun Affair|PKI rebellion in Madiun]], the [[Darul Islam rebellion]] (1947), the [[APRA coup d'état]] and proclamation of the [[Republic of South Maluku]] (1950), the [[Revolutionary Government of the Republic of Indonesia|PRRI rebellion]] (1953), and the [[Permesta]] (1958).

As of 14 November 1961, the Mobrig changed its name to ''Korps Brigade Mobil'' (Brimob), and its troops took part in the [[Konfrontasi|military confrontation with Malaysia]] in the early 1960s and in the [[Indonesian invasion of East Timor|conflict in East Timor]] in the mid-1970s. After that, Brimob was placed under the command of the [[Indonesian National Police]].

The Mobile Brigade, which began forming in late 1946 and was used during the anti-Dutch Revolution, started sending students for US Army SF training on [[Okinawa Prefecture|Okinawa]] in January 1959. In April 1960 a second contingent arrived for two months of Ranger training. By the mid-1960s the three-battalion Mobile Brigade, commonly known as Brimob, had been converted into an elite shock force. A Brimob airborne training centre was established in [[Bandung]]. Following the 1965 coup attempt, one Brimob battalion was used during anti-Communist operations in [[West Kalimantan]]. In December 1975 a Brimob battalion was used during the [[Indonesian invasion of East Timor|East Timor operation]]. During the late 1970s, Brimob assumed VIP security and urban anti-terrorist duties. In 1989, Brimob still contained [[Paratrooper|airborne-qualified]] elements. ''Pelopor'' ('Ranger') and airborne training takes place in Bandung and at a training camp outside [[Jakarta]].<ref name="mobrig">Kenneth Conboy, Simon McCouaig [https://books.google.com/books?id=L4zvCwAAQBAJ&q=police+mobile+brigade South-East Asian Special Forces], D3 Lieutenant, BRIMOB, 1983. [[Osprey Publishing|Osprey]], 1991</ref>  Historically, Brimob wore the Indonesian spot camouflage pattern during the early 1960s as their uniform.<ref name="mobrig" />

In 1981, the Mobile Brigade spawned a new unit called the "Jihandak" (''Penjinak Bahan Peledak''), an [[Bomb Disposal|explosive ordnance disposal]] (EOD) unit.

==Organisation==
[[File:Markas Brimob Pekanbaru.JPG|thumb|250px|A Brimob Headquarters in [[Pekanbaru]], [[Riau]]]]
[[File:Brimob pelopor.png|thumb|250px|Brimob personnel]]
In 1992 the Mobile Brigade was essentially a [[paramilitary]] organisation trained and organised along military lines. It had a strength of about 12,000. The brigade was used primarily as an elite unit for emergencies and supporting police operations as a rapid response unit.
The unit was mainly deployed for domestic security and defense operations, but now has gained and achieved many specialties in the scope of policing duties such as implementing SWAT operations, Search and Rescue operations, Riot control and [[CBRN defense|CBR (Chemical, biological and radiological) defense]]. Brimob also are usually sent to do domestic security operations with the [[Indonesian Armed Forces|TNI]].

Since the May 1998 upheaval, '''PHH''' (''Pasukan Anti Huru-Hara'', Anti Riot Unit) have received special anti-riot training. Elements of the unit are cross trained for [[airborne forces|airborne]] and [[Search and Rescue]] operations. In each Police HQ that represents a province (which is known as POLDA) in Indonesia each has an organized BRIMOB force which consists of a command headquarters, several Detachments of Pelopor police personnel organized into a regiment and usually 1 or 2 detachments of GEGANA.

The [[Chief of the Indonesian National Police]], known as KAPOLRI, has the highest command in each police operation including BRIMOB, orders are delivered by the police chief and then executed by his Operational Assistant Agent with then further notification to the Corps Commandant and then to the concerned regional commanders.

===Pelopor===
[[File:Pelopor brimob.png|thumb|250px|Pelopor troops]]
'''''Pelopor''''' (lit."Pioneer") is the main reaction force of the Mobile Brigade Corps, it acts as a troop formation and has the roles of mainly [[riot control]] and conducting paramilitary operations assigned to the corps to cope with high-level threat of society disturbance. It also specializes in the field of [[Guerrilla]], and [[Search and Rescue]] (SAR) operations. There are today 4 national [[regiment]]s of Pelopor in the Brimob [[corps]] which are:
*'''I'''' Pelopor Regiment
*'''II''' Pelopor Regiment
*'''III''' Pelopor Regiment
*'''IV''' Pelopor Regiment

In a historical view, this unit was called as "Brimob Rangers" during the Post Independence era. In 1959, during its first formation, Brimob Rangers troops conducted a test mission in the area of Cibeber, Ciawi and Cikatomas which borders Tasikmalaya-Garut in West Java. It was the baptism of fire of the Rangers, in which the newly acquired skills of guerrilla warfare and counter-insurgency operations were applied against remnants of [[Darul Islam (Indonesia)|Darul Islam]] in these communities. The actions against the Islamic Army of Indonesia (TII) units in the province weakened the DI even further, leading the total collapse of the local DI provincial chapter in 1962, ending a decade-long war of violence there.

The official first forward deployment of the Brimob Rangers was the Fourth Military Operations Movement in South Sumatra, West Sumatra and North Sumatra (in response to the [[Permesta]] rebellion of 1958). It was the Brimob Rangers troops became part of the Bangka Belitung Infantry Battalion led by Lieutenant Colonel (Inf) Dani Effendi. Rangers were tasked to capture the remains of the PRRI prison in Sumatra's forests led by Major Malik, which was then under rebel hands.

In 1961, under the express orders of then Chief of Police General Soekarno Djoyonegoro, Brimob Rangers troops were officially renamed '''Pelopor Troops of the Mobile Brigade'''. This is in accordance with the wishes of President [[Sukarno]] who wanted Indonesian names for units within both the TNI (Indonesian National Armed Forces) and POLRI (Indonesian National Police). At this time also the Pelopor constables and NCOs received many brand new weapons for police and counter-insurgency operations, including the more famous [[AR-15 style rifle|AR-15]] assault rifles. The subsequent assignment of this force was to infiltrate [[West Irian]] in [[Fak-Fak]] in May 1962 and engage in combat with the servicemen of the [[Royal Netherlands Army]] during [[Operation Trikora]]. The troops were also involved in the Confrontation of Malaysia in 1964 and at that time the Brimob Rangers troops (now Pelopor) in Indonesia faced the British [[Special Air Service]].<ref>{{citation | title= Brimob Pelopor Pasukan Elit Polri | publisher= Aulia Awaluddin | date=30 July 2015 | url= http://bm171watukosek.blogspot.co.id/ | access-date= 6 May 2017 }}</ref>

Pelopor Troops play a role as a troop formation unit and is still active in the Brimob's operational system. Aside from the national regiments, each Police region has a Pelopor regiment of two to four battalions.

===Gegana===
[[File:Gegana bomb disposal.jpg|thumb|180px|Gegana Bomb Disposal]]
'''''Gegana''''' is a special branch detachment within the Brimob corps which have special abilities mainly in [[bomb disposal]] and [[counter-terrorist]] operations. On the other hand, it also specializes in the field of [[hostage rescue]], [[Military intelligence|intelligence]] and [[CBRN defense|CBR (Chemical, biological and radiological) defense]]. The national Gegana unit is organized into a battalion headquarters company and (five) detachments which are:

*Intelligence Detachment
*Bomb Disposal Detachment
*[[Counter-terrorist|Anti-Terror]] Detachment
*Anti-Anarchist Detachment
*[[CBRN defense|CBR (Chemical, biological and radiological)]] Detachment

This unit was formed in 1976 as a detachment. At first, it was meant to deal with [[aircraft hijacking]]. Later in 1995, with the expansion of Brimob, the Gegana Detachment was expanded to become the 2nd BRIMOB Regiment. However, there are a select few specialists who are very skilled in these specialties. Gegana does not have battalions or companies. The regiment is broken down into several detachments. Within each detachment they are split into sub-detachments (sub-den), and within each sub-den they are further sub-divided into several units. Each unit usually consists of 10 personnel. One sub-den consists of 40 personnel, and one detachment consists of about 280 personnel.

One operation is usually assigned to one unit. Therefore, from the 10 people in that unit, six are required to have special skills: two for EOD (Explosives and Ordnance Disposal), two for search and rescue operations, and two for counter-terrorist operations. In any operation, two experts are designated Operators One and Two while the rest of the unit members become the Support Team.

For example, in counter-terrorism operations, the designated Operators must have sharp-shooting skills, ability to negotiate, and be an expert in storm-and-arrest procedures. These skills and operations are not meant to be lethal because the main goal of every Gegana operation is to arrest suspects and bring them to the court. Unless there is a situation that is compromised, Gegana avoids the use of lethal force.

In Search and Rescue operations, the personnel are required to have the basic capabilities of diving, rappelling, shooting, and first aid. In anti-bomb operation, the Operators have to be the expert in their respective fields. Each Gegana personnel has been introduced to various types of bombs in general, including the risks of handling them. There are specific procedures for handling each bomb, including the required timing.

Currently, Gegana's national battalion has three [[Explosive Ordnance Disposal]] (EOD) tactical vehicles.

Gegana battalions or companies are present in each provincial police unit.

===Unit composition===
Alongside the national units, regional formations of the Mobile Brigade are present in all 38 Regional Police Forces ('''Polda''') in Indonesia which represent a [[Provinces of Indonesia|province]]. In each BRIMOB unit of a Police HQ in a province ([[Indonesian National Police#Police Operational Centers|''Polda'']]), there are about several detachments of MBC Pelopor units (organized into a regiment) and usually 1 - 2 detachment of Gegana (small battalions or companies). 

A Brimob unit of a regional police headquarters consists of the following:
#Regional Mobile Brigade HQ Section (''Si-yanma'')
#Planning and Administration Section (''Subbagrenmin'')
#Intelligence Section (''Si-intel'')
#Operational Section (''Si-ops'')
#Provost ([[Internal affairs (law enforcement)|Internal affairs]]) Section (''Si-provos'')
#Communications Technology Section (''Si-tekkom'')
#Medical and Fitness Section (''Si-kesjas'')
#[[Search and Rescue]] (SAR) Unit
#Pelopor Regiment composed of:
## Regional Pelopor Regimental HQ
##'''A''' Detachment (''Den-A'')
##'''B''' Detachment (''Den-B'')
##'''C''' Detachment (''Den-C'')
##'''D''' Detachment (''Den-D'') (large departments only)
## Support units
#Gegana Detachment (''Den Gegana'')<ref>{{citation | title= Sat Brimob | publisher= Jambi Regional Police (Polda Jambi) | date=13 July 2015 | url=http://poldajambi.com/profil/detail/60/sat-brimob#.WQ7xedwlHcc | access-date= 6 May 2017 }}</ref>
## Detachment HQ
## 1-3 Subdetachments/Platoons

For some regional police headquarters, Pelopor detachments only consists up-to "'''C'''" Detachments only (3 battalions each). But for bigger regional police HQs such as the [[Jakarta Regional Metropolitan Police]] (Polda Metro Jaya), it consists up-to "'''D'''" Detachment with a total of four (4) detachments. Each Pelopor Detachment consists of 4 (four) [[Company (military unit)|Companies]], and each Company consists of 3 (three) [[Platoon]]s. The Gegana detachment is organized as a company in most police regions, but in larger ones is organized as a full battalion of two detachments and a headquarters company.

In the 2020s, the regional organization was amended with regional divisional commands (''Pasukan Brigade Mobil''), under which each provincial brigade reports directly. The BRIMOB divisions are led by Police Brigadier Generals.
