Re: APC Development and related topics.
Well, I need a short break from the war and went looking for information concerning the AJAX which should've been in service about 8 years ago or so.
It seems " GD" around OCT 2022 had made adjustments to the AJAX to reduce the vibration and noise levels to an " acceptable" level.
I cannot not for sure say the Reliability Growth Trials have started this month as planned for AJAX.
ASSUMING they have as it currently stands from MOD, those trials WILL NOT be completed before JUN 2024 or JAN 2025. (They use the Normal Calendar year.) . The following are from NOV & DEC 26, 2022.
I'll be providing the " click on" links from the article as they appear in it.

(PAGE 29 IS WHERE YOU WANT TO BE. AS THE ARTICLE STATED THERE ARE NO SERVICE-CONNECTED DATES i.e., IOC/FOC FOR EITHER AJAX OR BOXER.)
I've been posting on this for OVER 14 years (2008) now (Indias ARJUN was ONLY 10 years by comparison.) back then it was the FRES-SV Program which was another disaster. For background purposes...
