In any event, I like all the models proposed. Nice filling in the blanks, guys!
IMTU, the "Imperial Army" does exist, but has no units during peacetime, only Subsector HQ's and Sector HQ's. Huscarles are private forces of the Nobles, but form the core of the Imperial Army when war breaks out. After all, the 4518th LIR is pretty much a full on grav-mech-inf regiment.

When the 3I needs troops on short notice, it uses marines or huscarles.
