Re: APC Development and related topics.
Well, it looks like we can say farewell to the AJAX.
The UK Govt. via UK MOD has finally released its update concerning AJAX in regard to where it currently stands in trials and its ability with no further delays in the rest of its trial schedule.
From the article:
" Ajax vehicles to reach Initial Operating Capability between July and December 2025."
" Full Operating Capability will follow between October 2028 and September 2029, when the Army has trained and converted forces to the Ajax platform to deliver Armoured Cavalry capability to the Deep Reconnaissance Strike Brigade and its two Armoured Brigade Combat Teams."
So, a 1 year " SWAG" in FOC again with no further delays in the ongoing trials portion.
A note about the first ref. this is released on the UK Govt. website.
At the TOP note who its from and when you click on them you'll get the same exact article as posted just above. So to be CLEAR
this is from BOTH MOD and the UK Govt. official sites.
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/a...delivery-times
https://www.army-technology.com/news...jax-programme/
This I suspect will only be the first of a few more to fall by the wayside but the reporting should make this as no surprise to anyone out here.
Regards,
Pat
