Barry Buddon training camp, near Carnoustie, covers 2,300 acres of coastline, and is said to be one of the best equipped camps in Scotland. It was redeveloped to provide infantry training in the late 1990s and typically 30,000 service personnel pass through annually. With 20 different ranges, it forms the largest rifle range complex in Scotland. The ranges were used in the 1986 Commonwealth Games and are planned to be used in the 2014 Commonwealth Games. Most of the training area is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and an EU Special Area of Conservation (SAC), as well as a Special Protection Area (SPA) for birds under the European Birds Directive.
