Over 100 army trucks deploy for NATO exercise 🪖 Watch over 100 different trucks from the British Army travelling to the Port of Southampton to deploy to mainland Europe on NATO's largest exercise since the cold war; Exercise Steadfast Defender. Some traveled in convoys of varying numbers while others were by themselves. Some trucks only offloaded equipment. Featured are Land Rover Utility, Battlefield Ambulances, MAN Logistic Support Vehicles, Recovery Trucks, Enhanced Pallet Loading Systems, Unit Support Tankers, Oshkosh Medium Equipment Transporters, Close Support Tankers and other bits of equipment from different regiments of the British Army. The equipment departed on Roll On/Roll Off ships MV Hartland Point (featured), and MV Hurst Point (not featured). At 13:35 is featured a Jackal Reconnaissance Vehicle returning from the first phase of Exercise Steadfast Defender. It was transported by a MetCalfe Farms vehicle. Exercise Steadfast Defender is the largest NATO military exercise to be held since the Cold War. Over 90,000 troops are participating with over 1,200 combat vehicles, over 80 aircraft and over 50 naval assets from all 32 allies, including Sweden. British Forces vehicles travelled by ship from the Marchwood Sea Mounting Centre in the Port of Southampton.

British Army patrol vehicles convoy through Southampton during NATO exercise 🪖 Convoys of Protected Patrol Vehicles from the British Army pass through Totton after arriving at Marchwood in the Port of Southampton. They had been participating in NATO Exercise Steadfast Defender. Other army trucks and support vehicles are also featured. Most are from the 7th Light Mechanised Brigade Combat Team, aka 'The Desert Rats', operating as the NATO Very High Readiness Joint Task Force (VJTF). Featured are the 6x6 Mastiffs (as seen as 0:30), designed to transport 8 troops and 2 crew, while the 4x4 Ridgeback (as seen at 2:40) is smaller - it is based on the US Army Cougar. Both are used as Protected Patrol Vehicles, and are fitted with cages to deflect the blast from projectiles while patrolling in hostile areas and escorting convoys. Also featured is the Foxhound (seen at 4:37), another Protected Patrol Vehicle for the British Army. They are designed with a V-shape hull to protect against blasts from Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), after learning from the war in Afghanistan. A Panther (seen at 5:51) is also featured. This is an air transportable Protected Patrol Vehicle that can be underslung from Chinooks. It is much smaller compared to the Mastiff, Ridgeback and Foxhound vehicles featured. This vehicle is often used by Commanders. Lastly we see two Jackal Reconnaissance Vehicles being transported by low-loaders at 6:25. They are high mobility vehicles designed for quick manoeuvring both on and off road, with a variety of different terrain. They're armoured underneath to protect against IEDs and can be used for patrol & protection duties.
