London, United Kingdom, June 18, 2020 –(PR.com)– This year, it was announced that the British Army is facing a “modernisation challenge” as it looks to balance buying new equipment with upgrading its legacy fleet.

The UK plans to upgrade 170 Challenger 2 MBTs with a life extension programme (LEP) to continue their utility through till 2035, and 380 Warrior IFVs through its capability sustainment programme (CSP), working to enhance the situational awareness and all round capabilities of UK armour.*
