This question was answered on 8th March 2023
Funding for the integration of an Active Protection System onto the Challenger 3 Main Battle Tank was provisioned alongside the approval of the Full Business Case in March 2021. It would be inappropriate to confirm the amount of funding allocated whilst commercial negotiations with the supplier are ongoing.
