2 November 2022
Under Future Soldier and the Land Industrial Strategy, the Army is conducting widespread modernisation of its capabilities in order to maintain its operational outputs and to contribute to the defence, security and prosperity of the nation.
The intent remains to withdraw Warrior from service from 2025. Current capabilities, which include Warrior, will remain effective until new concepts and capabilities are introduced into service throughout the decade.
