EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense action of Exercise Tartan Dagger, as the British Army deploys its AS90 artillery to Salisbury Plains Training Area. The image was taken on the second day of live firing, where these powerful machines launched an impressive 3000 rounds into the skies above Salisbury Plains. As part of this Regimental exercise, 28/143 Battery played a crucial role in deploying and operating these armoured self-propelled guns. The AS90 is a formidable piece of equipment that has been serving the British Army since its introduction in 1993. In this photo, we see one of these vehicles positioned between firing missions, showcasing its imposing presence and advanced camouflage design. Its muzzle points towards an unseen target, highlighting the precision and accuracy required during training exercises like this. Photographed by SAC Lee Matthews from Armed Forces, this image perfectly encapsulates both the power and sophistication behind military operations. It serves as a reminder of the dedication and skill exhibited by our armed forces as they train tirelessly to ensure readiness for any situation.
