§ Lord Vivianasked Her Majesty's Government:
Why the six armoured regiments of the British Army do not have the same tank establishment; and what are the reasons for the variation in the number of Challenger 2 main battle tanks established to each regiment. [HL4933]
§ Lord BachThe six armoured regiments of the British Army have the same establishment of Challenger 2 main battle tanks. The number allocated to each regiment at any given time is, however, dictated mainly by its specific requirements in any one year.
