Heavy Technical Trailer Capability - Industry Engagement

Heavy Technical Trailer Capability - Industry Engagement

The aim of this engagement is to sound the market and understand industry appetite and possible opportunities to meet a Heavy Technical Trailer capability. The Army requires a family of trailers to be towed behind mainly armoured platforms. These trailers will initially carry the PYTHON mine clearance system; power packs for CHALLENGER/AJAX/BOXER/WR variants and AS90; other engines and main assemblies; logistic supplies potentially including engineer logistic materiel, fuel and ammunition. The trailers will be towed behind TROJAN, TERRIER, CRARRV, WR512/513, AJAX Apollo, BOXER, MAN SV 15 t and SV(R).

The family of trailers will be produced with as much commonality as possible, able to interoperate across the fleet of towing platforms and feature the following requirements:

Areas we seek input from include:

The expected fleet size is c120 with a likely life span of 20 years.

This day will start with a presentation from the programme SRO outlining our requirements followed by the opportunity for 15 minute 1 to 1 discussions with the SRO and his team. Lunch will be provided. The engagement will be held on 3 Nov 21 at Newcome Hall in Larkhill. Pre-registration to attend the event and discussion is required.

Registration should be sent to ArmyFutures-CSS-Prog@mod.gov.uk by 26 Oct 21. Requests for 1 to 1 discussions should be included in the response.
