Ukrainian tank drivers have described how significant the British Challenger 2 tank will be in the war with Russia.

Defence Secretary Ben Wallace visited Bovington Camp in Dorset and took a ride on a training vehicle being used to teach experienced Ukrainian personnel how to handle the Challenger 2 battle tank – as the UK prepares to send 14 to Ukraine.

A Ukrainian tank driver, known as Sacha, said: "The Challenger tank is a very formidable and strong tank; it has got a very good defence system and cannon.

"It will make a great lot of difference."

The training vehicles being used by the Ukrainian personnel are the Challenger 2 Driver Training Tanks (DTT).
