andym Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 For those who haven't already seen it, FRES/Scout has finally emerged as Ajax: http://www.shephardmedia.com/news/landwarfareintl/dsei-2015-scout-sv-becomes-ajax/ http://forces.tv/26875935 It's a lot bigger and heavier than a CVRT! Andy Quote
fesm_ndt Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 I have to digress.... but it is historical In Aussie we could never call anything in the Army Ajax as Ajax, FAB and OMO were all clothes washing powders and had very alternate meanings. legend says the Army wives would use these boxes as a code signal: - AJAX = Army Jerk Away on eXercise - OMO = Old Man Out - FAB = F'ing A'le Back Quote
timbo Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Warrior was discounted as a replacement coz it was too big... Quite how a multi billion pound procurement ends up with something heavier Im not sure!!! However, it is what it is now... Quote
