Defence Vehicle Fleet
D. Greenhalgh made this Official Information request to New Zealand Defence Force
Currently waiting for a response from New Zealand Defence Force, they must respond promptly and normally no later than (details and exceptions).
From: D. Greenhalgh
Dear New Zealand Defence Force,
I would like to request the following information in relation to the ground vehicle fleet of the Defence Force, including the Army, Navy, and Air Force:
- A list of all of all the different categories of vehicle (e.g. MHOV, LOV, LAV, MBAFC, DFA, RFA, ARA, MRV etc.) in use in the defence force, including combat, garrison and training support, and staff vehicles.
- For each of these categories, what make(s) and model(s) of vehicle currently fulfil this role, and if they are planned to be replaced.
- A photograph of each type of vehicle, if held.
I understand this information may be operationally sensitive, however I believe that the balance is in favour of disclosure in light of many of the NZDFs previous disclosures, such as information on their website (https://www.nzdf.mil.nz/nzdf/our-equipme...). If any information is deemed not to be exempt from release (e.g. information related to special forces), I ask this be redacted as opposed to the documents being withheld in full, if possible.
Ngā mihi,
D. Greenhalgh
