PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Warrior Vehicles (4 October 2024)
Question Asked
Asked by:
Ben Obese-Jecty (Conservative)
Answer
The Army’s tracked Infantry Fighting vehicle, Warrior, is due to be withdrawn from service by the end of the decade. Whilst BOXER is not a direct replacement, it will become the Army’s primary mechanised infantry platform working with Ajax and Challenger 3 in the Brigade Combat Teams. Warrior will remain effective until new capabilities are introduced throughout the decade.
The Strategic Defence Review will guide future capability development priorities, in which operational analysis and ongoing refinement of the Army’s force design will be considered.
