Capability Drop 1 vehicles have been delivered to the army to enable low level training and experimentation rather than the full capability expected at Capability Drop 3. General Dynamics have already successfully trialled live firing on the move on Capability Drop 3 vehicles and Ministry of Defence will qualify the capability before they receive the vehicles.
