Ajax Vehicles: Testing

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the expected costs are of the (a) additional trials for the Ajax vehicle and (b) modifications to that vehicle being tested.

The cost of the Millbrook trials are commercially sensitive. The trials are essential to allow us to safely bring Ajax into service.
