Challenger Tanks: Engines
Asked by: Lord Richards of Herstmonceux (Crossbench - Life peer)
Friday 22nd April 2022

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what progress they have made in rationalising the variants of the CV12 power packs fitted to the various marks and variants of the Challenger 2 tank, including the armoured engineer vehicles.

Answered by Baroness Goldie - Shadow Minister (Defence)

Overall powerpack commonality can be only achieved between Challenger 2, Challenger 3 and the Challenger Armoured Recovery and Repair Vehicle following the identification of a replacement refrigerant to fill the crew temperature control system to comply with the Montreal protocol. A post-design services task has been placed on contract with Rheinmetall BAE Systems Land for this work.

Answered by Baroness Goldie - Shadow Minister (Defence)

The Challenger 3 programme remains in the early stages of Demonstration and Manufacture, with detailed design work ongoing prior to Critical Design Review. The assembly of initial prototypes will follow along with a detailed trials programme.
