King Charles rides British Army tank on regiment visit in Bovington, Dorset

Outside, the King presented medals to soldiers on parade including wider service medals for Operation Cabrit in Estonia, long service, good conduct medals and commendations.

He also had a chance to meet family members of the regiment.

The King then inspected a Challenger 3 tank, the army’s newest battle tank, before he was shown the latest technological innovations being used by the regiment including 3D-printed equipment and search and attack drones.

Wearing a crew guard helmet, King Charles, sitting in the commander seat, was then taken for a ride around the museum’s arena in a Challenger 2 tank.
