The Army has embarked on a range of vehicular UOR’s to fill specific gaps in capabilities. In days gone by the Army had Land Rovers a range of Bedford trucks, a few odd specialist vehicles and the armour. Now there is an extremely wide range of vehicle types and revisions. Some are going or have recently gone out of service but we have included these for completeness.

Without passing any comment on their utility or suitability here is a list of some of the equipment in service in hot and sandy places, or not!

Its not exhaustive but most kit is there.
