    AVF0014 Written evidence submitted by Nicholas Drummond “Progress in Delivering the British Army’s Armoured Vehicle Capability.” Nicholas Drummond Defence Industry Consultant and Commentator Aura Consulting Ltd. ______________________________________________________________________________ _________ Contents Section 1 - Introduction Section 2 - HCDC questions 1. Does the Army have a clear understanding of how it will employ its armoured vehicles in future operations? 2. Given the delays to its programmes, will the Army be able to field the Strike Brigades and an armoured division as envisaged by the 2015 SDSR? 3. How much has the Army spent on procuring armoured vehicles over the last 20 years? How many vehicles has it procured with this funding? 4. What other capabilities has the Army sacrificed in order to fund overruns in its core armoured vehicles programmes? 5. How flexible can the Army be in adapting its current armoured vehicle plans to the results of the Integrated Review? 6. By 2025 will the Army be able to match the potential threat posed by peer adversaries? 7. Is the Army still confident that the Warrior CSP can deliver an effective vehicle capability for the foreseeable future? 8. To what extent does poor contractor performance explain the delays to the Warrior and Ajax programmes? 9. Should the UK have a land vehicles industrial strategy, and if so what benefits would this bring? 10. What sovereign capability for the design and production of armoured vehicles does the UK retain? 11. Does it make sense to upgrade the Challenger 2 when newer, more capable vehicles may be available from our NATO allies? 12. What other key gaps are emerging within the Army’s armoured vehicle capability? 13.

  • Hornet Fv1620
    HORNET FV1620 Clive Elliott explains how the development of the Hornet missile launcher. The Hornet missile launcher was developed under the FVRDE design specification FV1620. Depending on the stage of development the vehicle was identified as: Truck, 1 Ton, Armoured Launcher, 4x4, Humber. Launcher, Guided Missile, Truck Mounted. Truck, 1 Ton, Airportable Launcher, 4x4. Launcher, Guided Missile, Truck Mounted (Malkara) Armoured, 1 Ton, 4x4, Humber Hornet. The Humber 1-Ton trucks were introduced in the early 1950s and were designated by the Fighting Vehicle Research & Development Establishment (FVRDE) as the FV1600 series. They demonstrate how a wide range of variants can be based on a cargo truck. Other 1-Ton trucks of the time, like the Austin K9 (FV16000 series) and Morris MRA/1 (FV16100 series) were based on a commercial chassis, but the Humber was developed exclusively for military use and was the only ‘standardised’ 1-Ton truck. Standardised, means that it has some components that are shared with other standardised vehicles such as Champ, Ferret, Saracen etc. Of all the Humber variants the armoured version known as the Pig saw the longest service and is the most widely known variant. But the most ingenious variant must be the Hornet (FV1620) which became the launch vehicle for the Malkara Anti-Tank Guided Weapon (ATGW). The adoption of Malkara by the British Army spawned a range of other Humber variants to supply, test and repair the Malkara system. It has been said that the Hornet was a rather improvised vehicle and that a better launch vehicle could have been designed.

    Tank Trek II Audio Guide Ontario regiment Museum Tanker Trek Waiting to Enter Welcome to the Ontario Regiment RCAC Museum and our very first Tank Trek adventure. We have an exciting and informative program for you and are happy to have you with us. My name is Jeff Darrington and I have been volunteering here for four years. I come here to help preserve our military history and enjoy being a part of the great volunteer family. I will be your MC and guide you through the tank adventure. <Music> Hi. I’m Mike Varty. I am a volunteer here at the museum and I have been volunteering here for over two years. The reason I come here is for the history and the great volunteer family and a chance to use my mechanical skills to help restore, maintain, and preserve these living pieces of history. First of all, a big Thank You for coming to visit. We are happy to take this opportunity to show our tanks and military vehicles in a new way. As you entered, you were guided to a “Forming Up Place” where you will wait until your turn to enter the Tank Trek. The Tank Trek is a self-guided tour through the museum grounds in small convoys of five or less vehicles. The Trek is composed of 5 zones; three of which are static displays, one is a tank arena show, and the last is the gift shop. Each zone should take approximately 10 to 15 minutes. There is an audio file for each zone.

  • HOW to PAINT IDF TANK Weathering Guide L. Zaromitidis, R. Lawler, M
    HOW TO PAINT IDF TANK Weathering Guide L. Zaromitidis, R. Lawler, M. Dostal, Mig Jimenez, A. Kira. AMMO BY Mig Jimenez Publisher, Spain. 116 pages, 93 color and w/b pics of real tanks and 263 color pics of scale models. English language. Euro 19,50. The AMMO published another indispensable guide to the color and weathering of military vehicles, this time dedicated – long last, let we say – to the Israeli defence Force tracked vehicles. “Long last” because until now, although it is quite clear to all the modellers fan of the IDF the Israeli camouflage has evolved over time, passing between different shades of yellow sand and gray, the camouflage evolution itself was in the past the subject of several articles in modeling magazines, but until now we really felt the lack of an agile, clear and understandable guide that summarized this evolution, placing it in the right phases and giving to the modeler a useful reference for to paint a realistic reproduction of the Israeli vehicles. The book opens with a synthetic but impeccable historical overview of the evolution of the armored Israeli corp by two guys who certainly do not need any introduction: Mario Pieri and Daniele Guglielmi, who thanks to an excellent photographic equipment illustrate the various tracked vehicles of the IDF, with particular reference to those currently in service both in the frontline armored units and the reserve of the IDF. The rest of the book is dedicated to the painting of six different models: it starts with the Takom AMX 13/75 in 1/35 built by Mig Jimenez, set in the Six Day War.
