The British Army decided it didn't need Warrior CSP because it would be replaced by Boxer. These were its words, no one else. The cancellation, a mere four years ago, cost the taxpayer £594.6 million (inc VAT). When the order for an ARES based IFV comes, just remember this.
Wonder if Reform will offer a referendum on the death penalty
Is a stretched Ares IFV cheaper than a Warrior CSP, asking for a concerned taxpayer friend?

A new blog post this week looks at aviation in the Falkland Islands before the conflict, including the airstrip at Hookers Point, before the airport at Stanley was built. Link in replay
I dont know what is more depressing. The shenanigans, or the fact the British Army can't train itself and needs either an Israeli or American company to help it

A video demonstrating a Capewell air despatch concept for an armed Uncrewed Ground Vehicle. I think this is quite an interesting concept if you have control of the air. Make the C-17 uncrewed, and it gets even more interesting
If the British Army goes with vehicle mounted 120 mm mortars, do they stay as infantry assets, or do they go to the Gunners?
Boxer is the size it is because we wanted it so. Boxer is the size it is because it carries stuff on the inside, not lashed to the outside like other vehicles.
