The true litmus test of the Army’s credibility and the cornerstone of deterrence is a lethal combination of modernised CR3 MBT, Apache AH64E, Ajax and Boxer, long-range rockets, artillery and armed UAVs #Warfighting #Lethality #FutureSoldier .@BritishArmy

Having difficulties linking the correct webpage - here’s a screenshot of what to look for.

We’ve launched a DASA IFA to find new & novel ways of crossing short gaps (<4m). In a dispersed battlefield all arms armoured vehicles need to cross obstacles without Sapper support, allowing us to concentrated on complex obstacles. Can you help?

The funeral of Tom Hicks, a former airborne sapper and respected veteran, will be streamed tomorrow Thursday 25 February from 12:00. To pay your respects, watch this Thursday on the Catholic Barnsley YouTube channel: ow.ly/l4dX50DEOfL #SapperFamily

Great to see SSgt Gardner and WO2 Cripps from the Royal Engineers Trials and Development Unit giving Virusend which they helped develop to people going into Army HQ today. Sadly you still had to buy your own Costa tho. ⁦@InnovationArmy⁩

An interesting concept for EOD robots of the future for @29eod. An Would integrated suite of systems to detect, identify, neutralise, and assess all powered by AI and man/machine teaming.

A new autonomous robot has been unveiled that can detect and report dangerous chemicals on the battlefield. Scientists say the robot could drastically reduce the risks to military and counter-terrorism officers when operating in contaminated areas. forces.net/news/new-chemi…

Map the Gap Phase 1 demonstrations next month. Very excited to see what industry has developed through @DASAccelerator and @dstlmod Great news, a further £2m innovation funding for surveying technology gov.uk/government/new… has been announced for Phase 2.

@AtrloaderAndy I’m sorry you feel that way. Good debate though; thank you for contributing.

@MvrSp @DefenceHQ @BritishArmy Pointless reporting

Personnel supporting community testing for Covid-19 are using a new disinfectant co-developed by @BritishArmy that kills 99.99% of the virus in under a minute. ow.ly/60hd50CN3GW

@AtrloaderAndy @DefenceHQ @BritishArmy What would you like to know Andy? If you have specific questions, I’d be happy to answer here or in DM.

@DefenceHQ @BritishArmy Soap and water in 15 seconds apparently what we've been told since the outbreak started. Come on surely there is more important info to put out

Our #modernisation and #transformation is driven by our partnerships with research organisations, industry, and academia. Perhaps our oldest partner is @dstlmod who have been giving us our technological edge since the First World War. Find out who they are👇

Royal Engineers are supporting COVID-19 testing near our Chatham base. Medway in SE Kent has the highest infection rate in the UK. 145 personnel from the Corps have been mobilised to support the local council and Public Health's response. ➡️ow.ly/jn9N50CGzjZ #SapperSmart

...and anywhere else in the world where British Army EOD and Search troops are deployed. @29eod

This is fantastic news for the British Army as it continues its modernisation agenda.

NEWS: RBSL awarded £860m subcontract by @RheinmetallAG to produce Boxer vehicles for #MIV programme. The contract will create and sustain 200+ skilled jobs in and around #Telford, with the complete programme creating and sustaining 1000+ nationally. More: bit.ly/35X13Kc

Because sometimes only brute force will do... @AirborneSappers bring an Infantry Foot Bridge forward for paratroopers to cross an obstacle during a live fire battle run on #WessexStorm
