The Department continues to work with General Dynamics to resolve the challenges on Ajax and is actively working to validate the effectiveness of proposed modifications to address noise and vibration in line with the contract.

We expect to be in a position to consider the way forward for the programme by the end of the year.

The Ministry of Defence will not accept a vehicle until it can be used safely for its intended purpose.
