Originally the paramilitary wing of  the [[BNP]], it split from its parent organization over opposition to a political solution in 1993 and later became the security force of [[Blood & Honour]]. It also published a magazine called Redwatch that doxed socialists.

Its founder, Charlie Sargent, was suspected by his followers of being an MI5 informant, leading to a split(some think the whole organization began as an MI5 operation meant to discredit the BNP, and to attract the UK's more violent Neo-Nazis). The new leader, Wilf "The Beast" Browning wanted to reconcile with him, but this attempt led to Browning being murdered by Sargent and Martin Cross, former [[Skrewdriver]] guitarist. Since then, the group has further splintered into the [[White Wolves]] and Racial Volunteer Force.

Some of its members were football(soccer) hooligans. In 1995 at least 20 of them went to a football match between England and Ireland, where they took part in (and may have instigated) a riot over an England goal being ruled offside. They threw projectiles at Ireland fans and onto the field, forcing the match to be cancelled (Ireland won 1-0). About 20 people were injured during the rioting, which eventually ended as Gardai escorted the England fans out of Lansdowne Road stadium.

In 1999 a White Wolf, [[David Copeland]], committed a series of three bombing attacks in London which targeted blacks, Bangladeshis and gays respectively.

Combat 18 is now largely a label used by semi-independent local chapters in various white-majority countries; however these usually serve more or less the same purpose as the original, that is, protecting Blood and Honour events.

In 2019 it was added to Canada's list of designated terrorist organizations. Because of its relative inactivity by this point, many suspect this was in reaction to the mosque shootings in Christchurch, and to send a message to other white identity extremists in Canada that they could possibly be designated terrorists. 

Combat 18 was also banned in Germany in January 2020. At the time of the ban it had 20 members and an unknown number of supporters and sympathizers. They appealed the ban, but it was rejected in September 2020.

The name originates from the initials for [[Adolf Hitler]], A and H being the first and eighth letters of the alphabet respectively.
