Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 7 March 2022 to Question 132162 on Armoured Fighting Vehicles, how many of the Army’s (a) main battle tanks, (b) infantry fighting vehicles and (c) artillery are not operational or available for deployment as of 7 March 2022.

In the interests of safegurading national security it is not appropriate to place in the public domain the specific information that has been requested.

As I said when I answered Question 132161 for the Rt Hon. Gentleman details of the number of vehicles in the UK Armed Forces are published on an annual basis on the Government’s website.
