On 29 March 2018 the brigade was formed in Chernihiv Oblast.[1] It was the first Brigade to be raised for the Territorial Forces. The need for the Brigade arose from having over 40 local defense units that lacked organized support. The brigade was planned to be composed of older reservists, aged up to 55 years old.[2]
