All French dragoon regiments had a consistent field strength of three squadrons during the WSS. The older ones had had as many as four during the Dutch war in the 1670's, but that number was reduced to three after 1680.
Most French line cavalry regiments had two squadrons but some - usually the older and most prestigious units - had three.
