The 25th Air Cavalry Brigade (Polish: 25 Brygada Kawalerii Powietrznej (25BKPow)) is a brigade of the Polish Armed Forces, headquartered in Tomaszów Mazowiecki. The brigade serves as air assault troops, enabling the formation to be transported to battle by helicopters in large numbers.

The 25th Air Cavalry Brigade was formed on June 15, 1994 as the 25th Air Cavalry Division, inheriting the traditions of the Mazowiecka Cavalry Brigade. It was not just traditions that were inherited from its predecessors, with the formation's role also intended to be similar to that of the old role of cavalry, which was now replaced by heli-borne troops instead of mounted troops. In September 1999, the 25th Air Cavalry Division was downsized and reformed into the 25th Air Cavalry Brigade.^[1]

The brigade serves in an air assault role, where troops are transported to and then inserted into battle using helicopters. This enables the brigade to have a high degree of maneuverability, being able to be transported rapidly to strategic or tactical situations.

The brigade has 3500 soldiers and is structured as follows:^[2]
