The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what he plans to do with each Warrior infantry fighting vehicle when they retire from service.

Answered by Maria Eagle

Following the extension of the Out of Service Date (OSD) of the Warrior Armoured Fighting Vehicle from 2025 to 2027, it remains the Department’s intent that the Warrior family will be withdrawn from service by the end of the decade with salvage activity already occurring in line with planned fleet reductions. Plans for Warrior beyond its OSD are yet to be formally agreed.
