Note: When using parameters, avoid the ambiguous abbreviation "N/A", and instead use "unknown" or "none". All subjective or qualitative judgements and numerical quantities or statistics must be cited to a reliable source (see WP:MILMOS#CITE).
- unit_name – The formal name of the unit in English.
- native_name – optional – The formal name of the unit in the local language, if different from unit_name, and if not English. This will display under the unit_name.
- image – optional – An image of the unit insignia (cap badges, tartan or colours), if available; other images may be used if this cannot be obtained. The image should be given in the form
Example.jpg. - image_size – optional – Used to override the default image width of 200 pixels. It should be written as
200px. - alt – optional – Alternative text for visually impaired users, see WP:ALT.
- caption – optional – The text to be placed below the image.
- dates – The period (usually in years) when the unit was active; alternately, the dates may be indicated by using one—or both—of the separate start_date and end_date parameters.
- country – optional – If the unit is part of the armed forces of a sovereign state, the name of that state.
- allegiance – optional – Used to indicate the allegiance of units which are not part of the regular armed forces of a sovereign state; can usually be omitted otherwise. In the case of National Guard or Naval Militia units, the State of origin should be indicated.
- branch – optional – The service branch, in militaries that have them; typically army, navy, air force, etc.
- type – optional – The general type of unit, e.g., cavalry, infantry, artillery, etc. More specific types (airborne infantry, light cavalry, etc.) may be given as appropriate.
- role – optional – Typical strategic or tactical use of unit, e.g., shock troop, special operations, mechanized infantry, ceremonial guard, etc.
- size – optional – The size of the unit; this may include both average and lifetime figures, and should indicate equipment (planes, tanks, cannon, etc.) where applicable. For U.S. units, this should only include Organic elements, not Assigned or Attached elements.
- command_structure – optional – The larger unit(s) of which the unit is a part. This should not be used to provide an exhaustive history of the unit, which is more appropriate in the article itself, for units existing over a long period. For complicated cases, using the auxiliary command structure box may be appropriate.
- garrison – optional – Location of the unit's home base; this is generally applicable only to units in existence.
- garrison_label – optional – The label to use for the garrison field (above).
- nickname – optional – Any commonly-used nicknames for the unit.
- patron – optional – The patron the unit was named after; this is only applicable in armed forces where units are named after individuals.

- colors – optional – The unit colors; this may refer to either the actual colors used on the uniform, or to the colours of the unit.
- colors_label – optional – the label to use for the colors field (above).
- march – optional – The tune(s) commonly or officially played when the unit ceremonially marches; there may be several.
- mascot – optional – Any official or unofficial animal or character maintained by the unit.
- equipment – optional – For units strongly associated with specific equipment or vehicles, such as tanks, artillery, or aircraft, a brief list of the notable types used by the unit; if the number of entries is large, it is recommended that this field not be used, and that the full list be given in the article text instead.
- equipment_label – optional – The label to use for the equipment field (above).
- battles – optional – Any notable engagements in which the unit participated. The decision of what constitutes a notable engagement is left to the editors of the specific article.
- battles_label – optional – The label to use for the battles field (above); this defaults to "Engagements" if left blank.
- anniversaries – optional – Any anniversaries that a unit celebrates.
- decorations – optional – Any decorations (such as the Presidential Unit Citation) that the unit as a whole has received.
- battle_honours – optional – For units in countries that award some type of formal battle honours, the battle honours that the unit has received; while this may have some overlap with the battles field above, the two are not necessarily equivalent.
- battle_honours_label – optional – The label to use for the battle_honours field (above); this defaults to "Battle honours" if left blank.
- disbanded – optional – For units that have been disbanded, the dates and any other relevant notes regarding the disbanding.
- flying_hours – optional – If the formation is an aerial one, the total hours flown.

Command structure box
A command structure box may be used to summarize information about an individual military unit's parent and subordinate units; it should generally be used in conjunction with {{Infobox military unit}}. If needed, multiple boxes may be used to show the unit's command structure during different periods.
The box should be added using the {{Infobox command structure}} template, as shown below:
{{Infobox command structure
| name =
| date =
| parent =
| subordinate =
}}
Note: When using parameters, avoid the ambiguous abbreviation "N/A", and instead use "unknown" or "none". All subjective or qualitative judgements and numerical quantities or statistics must be cited to a reliable source (see WP:MILMOS#CITE).
- name – the name of the unit or formation.
- date – optional – the dates during which the given structure was in place.
- parent – optional – the unit's parent unit.
- subordinate – optional – the unit's subordinate units.
