military breed (e.g., Thoroughbred, Arabian)

Military breeds, like Thoroughbreds and Arabians, refer to horse breeds historically used in warfare and cavalry. Thoroughbreds, known for their speed and agility, were bred for racing but also excelled in mounted combat. Arabians, recognized for their endurance and adaptability, have a long history in military roles, prized by warriors for their reliability and stamina. These breeds have qualities such as intelligence, strong work ethic, and loyalty, making them suitable for military tasks, including reconnaissance and transport. While modern warfare has evolved, these breeds' traits remain appreciated in various equestrian disciplines.
