Canada: Armoured Fighting Vehicles

Asked by James CartlidgeConservativeMinistry of DefenceTabled Answered 2 March 2026UIN 113582

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether there has been a reduction in the number of armoured vehicles in use at British Army Training Unit Suffield since 5 July 2024.

Answered by Al Carns

The Army continually reviews equipment allocations to ensure training needs are met. For operational security reasons, we do not release details of equipment holdings, changes in quantities, or future allocations at specific locations, including the British Army Training Unit Suffield (BATUS). Equipment levels remain under regular assessment to support required training outputs.
