Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what were the 11 limitations of use on Ajax vehicles in September 2021 that were critical to achieving initial operating capability.

While it would be inappropriate to release details of the 11 limitations of use identified in the NAO report for security reasons, as a complete list of criteria could, or would be likely to, prejudice the capability of our Armed Forces, those limitations were resolved prior to Initial Operating Capability being met.
