Vorlage:Infobox Military Unit
The 1st Airborne Brigade (Japanisch: 第1空挺団 Dai-ichi Kūtei-dan), also known as the Narashino Airborne Brigade, is stationed in the Narashino Japanese Ground Self-Defense Forces (JGSDF) Base in Funabashi, Chiba Prefecture. It is part of the Eastern Army in the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force.
The Brigade serves as Japan's elite paratrooper unit. Under the Brigade is the Guide Unit, serving as its NEO (Non-combatant Evacuation Operations) unit. Currently, they are attached to current homeland defense and international combat operations under the Central Readiness Force.
The unit is being likened similarly to the Western Army Infantry Regiment and the recently established Japanese Special Operations Group, since these units are some of Japan's only Special Forces units with an offensive capability as some of Japan's other Special Forces units are assigned to CT or defensive duties.
