Developed by GKN Defence, the Warrior entered service in 1984 and has since been continually updated. The most current version in British Army service is the Warrior TES specification, featuring bar armour to protect the hull against shaped charges such as rocket propelled grenades, as well as a host of communication and sensory upgrades.
The Warrior (WR) family of 7 variants of armoured vehicles entered service in 1988 and have proved a resounding success for Armoured Infantry (AI) battlegroups (BG) in the Gulf War, Bosnia, Kosovo and Iraq. They provide excellent mobility, lethality and survivability for the Infantry and have enabled key elements from the Royal Artillery (RA) and Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME) to operate effectively within the Battlegroup.
