English: Soldiers from The 2nd Battalion Yorkshire Regiment, or 2 YORKS, were deployed to Kabul, Afghanistan in 2018, in support of the NATO Resolute Support Mission. They were there as part of the Kabul Security Force providing Force Protection and transport for British Military mentors working to improve the efficiency of Afghanistan institutions and government departments.

The Foxhound is the perfect vehicle for this role. Replacing the British Army Snatch Land Rover, the Foxhound has a reinforced V-shaped hull ideal for protection against Improvised Explosive Devices. Along with a top speed of 82mph and wheels which turn independently along with being able to operate the vehicle even if one of the wheels suffers a catastrophic failure. 2 YORKS were assisted by the Royal Air Force and their Puma Mark 2’s which fly out of Hamid Karzai International Airport. The Puma’s could assist with the movement of mentors along with providing emergency casualty evacuation if required.
