English: Pictured is a 2 Royal Anglian Foxhound vehicle at sunset after conducting both static and mobile ranges with the General-Purpose Machine Gun.

Members of 2nd Battalion The Royal Anglian Regiment (2 R Anglian) take part in Exercise Primed Poacher at Castlemartin Ranges. Pembrokeshire, Wales.

The soldiers of 2 R Anglians conducted a mounted life fire tactical training (LFTT) range package in preparation of Operation NEWCOMBE, Mail. Within the package soldiers progressed through a series of shoots, including static, firing while moving and also a night firing serial.

The Foxhound platform replaced the Snatch Land Rover vehicle in order to improve protection of personnel against improvised explosive devices (IED’s)

The Foxhound is at the cutting edge of protected patrol vehicle technology and provides unprecedented levels of blast protection for its size and weight against the threats faced by troops in Afghanistan. However, this is an agile and versatile vehicle that will be a mainstay in the Army for years to come.
