I think they are still using the warrior for fire support on clearance ops, but they are using a whole host of mine protected vehicles. They main big boys are the Mastiff (6 wheel US cougar), Ridgeback (US cougar), Buffalo (EOD mastiff ), Wolfhound (6 wheel mastiff crew cab and cargo platform), Jackel (4 wheel weapons platform), Coyote (6 wheel jackel but with a cargo platform as well), Warthog (mine protected BV206).

All Cougar variants are up-armoured in the UK prior to deployment.

All these vehicles can be fitted with either: 7.62 mm GPMG, .50 cal HMG or 40 mm GMG.

In addition to these there are also the Husky tactical support vehicle, the Bulldog 430 upgrades, the Panther command vehicle, the Springer cargo vehicle (tiny vehicle), Land rover WMIK and snatch (used mainly for local defence around Bastion etc..

Also the Royal Engineers are using the Trojan AVRE and have helped out your guys around Kandahar recently with them. And they have also used the Python mine/route clearance device (larger version of your miglik and latest version of ours). They also have been using the ABLE (Automated Bridge Launching Equipment) system, although I don't think they have Titan AVLB in theatre, but I could be wrong.

The logistic boys and girls are also driving around in some up-armoured MAN trucks and stuff and these are fitted with various weapons also.

If you look at the discovery channels UK website there are pages on there from a programme by a chap named Mike Brewer and he has recently done a series on the Brit kit in Afghanistan which might be of help to you. If you can watch the series, do so, especially his trip in the Chinook that was taking heavy fire while doing a casevac and the pilot was injured.

Two good websites to get some good photos of our equipment from are the British Army official website; www.army.mod.uk
and the MOD's website; www.defenceimagedatabase.mod.uk

I hope this long winded response is of some help to you.
