As at 31 March 2023 no FV107 Scimitar remain in service, with 102 withdrawn since November 2022.

Since November 2022, through the Defence Equipment Sales Agency, one FV107 Scimitar has been disposed of and 18 have been sold externally. I am withholding the details of the end customers due to commercial confidentiality.
