British Army to get 100 Boxer armoured vehicles

The extra vehicles will be produced in both UK and Germany while full production transfers to the UK.

The British Army is set to receive 100 extra Boxer vehicles, the Prime Minister has announced.

Boris Johnson made the announcement as UK-German production started in Telford, Stockport and Munich, and said the partnership between the two nations “offers reassurance to our people and the wider world” in “these difficult times”.

“This joint programme will ensure our militaries have state-of-the-art equipment as the invasion of Ukraine shakes the very foundations of European peace and security,” he said.
