I might be completely wrong, but I thought I had read something about it being a brigade of light mechs. Again not sure, maybe it was a particular unit.
Regular Infantry Divisions are equipped with a light mech brigade. Stated in SLDF Field Manual page 13.
For a Jump Infantry Division, I could see the Mech Brigade equipped with possibly 1-2 Striker Regiments and a Battle Regiment for extra staying power. 5/8 minimum speed, all jump capable. The Division Command Mech Battalion I could see being jump capable assault sized formation. Danged if I can find it, but IIRC, most Infantry Brigades also had a Mech Battalion assigned to each also. I could see those being fast jump capable or even LAM's to keep up with the VTOL transports within the individual brigade for immediate support.
Standard SLDF was same type at company level. But a Battalion could be mixed. Mainly independent Regiments or the SAS got lance level types or mixed lances due to the "special" needs they might encounter.
My hard drive got corrupted so I don't have my FM:SLDF to verify the above.
That said, it sounds like there are a couple things blended here.
1. Per the OG SLSB each Infantry BRIGADE was assigned 1 BATTALION of LIGHT Mechs.
2. I seem to recall from the FM-SLDF that one of the Divisions I was researching (Mechanized Infantry) mentioned that the Mech BRIGADE had lots of "Panthers, Hunchbacks, & Locusts" At least I think it said that.
IIRC that unit was 70th ID & the Mech Brigade was 701st Brigade w/ 3 Strike Regiments.
3. I can't imagine THAT many Light Mechs if every single Infantry Division supported nothing but Light Mechs.
That wouldn't be a very good break down of forces at all.
4. A Jump Infantry Division is going to have a minimum of.....
1 HQ Mech Battalion (Medium)
2 Light Mech Battalions (Light)
3 Regiments of Mechs (Striker?)
That's 4 regiments of mechs not counting any in the Recon Unit on the TO&E which for some reason I thought had some LAMs from the OG SLSB.
I wouldn't say that 100% of mechs in a JID are Jump Capable or that they are all Lights.
But, I probably would say something like, "Not a single unit slower than 4/6/0 or over 80 tons" (Victor would be top end IMHO)
Instead of the typical 30-40-20-10 3rd SW Split..... Or a theorized 17-33-33-17 SLDF split (assuming all regiments are equal in # & 50/50 in size split)......
I'm probably think that a JID is something more like 40-50-10-0* *(Or 9-1)
And over 50% JJ equipped mechs.
