Ajax is a family of 589 tracked armoured vehicles based on the General Dynamics ASCOD IFV hull. These vehicles will replace the CVR(T) family and will equip British Army Strike Brigades. A £3.5 billion ($4.3 billion) manufacturing contract was awarded to GDLS UK in 2014. The vehicles are expected to enter service between 2020 and 2025. The programme’s overall name is Ajax, but there are six variants: reconnaissance (Ajax), reconnaissance support (Ares), C2 (Athena), equipment repair (Apollo), equipment recovery
(Atlas) and engineering reconnaissance (Argus).
