UK evolves its ammo supply tactics based on lessons learned from Ukraine

Watch: Engineering support to the battlefield remodeled for modern conflict capabilities.

Ukraine's fight against Russia has underscored the challenges of engineering support on the battlefield, particularly in ensuring ammunition delivery to frontline fighters. 

The UK is responding with a transformation of its approach to engineering support, featuring longer resupply routes and distinct convoy paths, all while shifting the support area's location to counter evolving threats.

This adaptation calls for versatility, concealment, and dispersion, with the added promise of the new Ajax armoured vehicle to safeguard engineers, allowing them to support other units with increased firepower.
