The true litmus test of the Army’s credibility and the cornerstone of deterrence is a lethal combination of modernised CR3 MBT, Apache AH64E, Ajax and Boxer, long-range rockets, artillery and armed UAVs #Warfighting #Lethality #FutureSoldier .@BritishArmy

Our #modernisation and #transformation is driven by our partnerships with research organisations, industry, and academia. Perhaps our oldest partner is @dstlmod who have been giving us our technological edge since the First World War. Find out who they are👇

Because sometimes only brute force will do... @AirborneSappers bring an Infantry Foot Bridge forward for paratroopers to cross an obstacle during a live fire battle run on #WessexStorm
