Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether the prospective role of the AJAX AFV has changed in light of the lessons learnt from the war in Ukraine.
Ajax remains fit for its intended role at the heart of the Army’s plan for a modernised fleet of armoured vehicles under Future Soldier.
Future Soldier will deliver a modernised warfighting division by 2030, built around a digitally networked combination of Ajax, Boxer, Challenger 3, AH64E, long range precision fires and un-crewed aerial systems.
