Challenger 2 tanks and Trojan vehicles blast their way through Queen's Royal Hussars exercise

Challenger 2 tanks have been seen putting down covering fire and engaging enemy tank targets at range during a training exercise.

B Squadron, the Queen's Royal Hussars, trained alongside 52 Engineer Regiment in the Main Battle Tank, fitted with Mine-Plow equipment.

As well as clearing complex obstacles, the tanks made short work of a minefield - with help from a Trojan armoured vehicle.

• Challenger 2 tanks back on former British training area for first time in four years
• Challenger 2 tank triumphs in Nato competition ahead of Leopard and Abrams tanks
• British Challenger 2 tanks arrive in Ukraine and will 'soon begin combat missions'

Throughout the exercise, the tanks put down covering fire for the Engineers, engaging with enemy tank targets.

In an Instagram post, The Queen's Royal Hussars said: "Nothing stops a Challenger 2!"

"With the right tools, we can finish any job," the post said.
