<p>The Scout vehicle was chosen by the Army after an extensive assessment period and
a competitive process which examined a number of different vehicle options. Scout
was selected because it delivered the optimum value for money and the overall balance
of capability required to provide a genuine multi-role platform for the Army against
a demanding set of requirements. Scout is a fully digitised armoured vehicle which
will deliver a step change in versatility and agility for the Army. Scout will be
able to conduct both close combat and reconnaissance tasks and will be equipped with
a sensor suite and sighting system that will double the range at which all types of
target can be detected from the ground, providing a genuine force multiplier to the
Army.</p>
