The King's Troop, Royal Horse Artillery, is a ceremonial unit of the British Army, quartered at Woolwich. It is a mounted unit and all of its soldiers are trained to care for and drive teams of six horses, each team pulling a First World War-era QF 13-pounder gun; six teams are used in the unit's Musical Drive. The Troop's duties include firing salutes on royal and state occasions, participation in parades, and the duties of the King's Life Guard at Horse Guards for one month each year. The unit provides the gun carriage and team of black horses for state funerals. The unit is most often seen providing gun salutes on state occasions in Hyde Park, and Green Park.

  • Отряд Его Величества королевской конной артиллерии (англ. The King's Troop, Royal Horse Artillery) — церемониальное конное формирование Британской армии, штабом которого являются Казармы королевской артиллерии в Вулидже. Все его солдаты обучены обслуживать и управлять отрядами из шести лошадей, перевозящих каждое из шести 13-фунтовых полевых орудий, используемых ныне для салютов на торжественных мероприятиях. Эти же отряды не только следят за орудиями, но ухаживают за чёрными лошадями, которые выезжают в случае государственных и военных похорон. Чаще всего отряд участвует в торжественных салютах в лондонских Гайд-парке и Грин-парке. (ru)
