-----------------------

1. 70 Leopard C2s have been declared surplus.

2. The Grizzly APC has been declared surplus to CF requirements. 100 vehicles are on loan to the African Union mission in Drafur, Sudan. All others remaining in Canada (157) have been pulled from service.

3. 548 vehicles have been declared surplus.

4. This piece of equipment was reported as “A3” in previous UNCAR reports. This typographical error has been corrected.

5. Canada holds 175 Cougars that have been declared surplus and are in the disposal process. The figure reported in 2004 (100) reflected the vehicles in service at that time did not take into account the 75 vehicles that were declared surplus.

6. All M109s were declared surplus.

7. 39 C1 Howitzer 105mm have been declared surplus.

8. Procured in 2005, as reported elsewhere in this report.

9. No information provided for national security reasons.

10. Because these vehicles have been acquired “less kits,” it is not yet certain whether they will meet the definition for Section II Armoured Combat Vehicles (e.g., they may become LAV variants that do not meet the definitional requirement for crew number). We are reporting this procurement through production in the interests of transparency and openness.
