挑戰者2戰車(FV4034 Challenger 2)為英國維克斯公司開發的第三代主力戰車,目前在英國陸軍及阿曼陸軍服役。挑戰者二式是以挑戰者一式主力戰車重新設計,雖然外觀類似,但兩款戰車的零件僅有3%的共通性。英國在2021年決定為挑戰者二式進行延壽計畫(Life Extension Programme,LEP),計畫讓目前服役的148輛挑戰者二式進行升級,使英軍的挑戰者戰車部隊至少服役到2035年,完成延壽升級的版本稱為挑戰者3戰車。
The FV4034 Challenger 2 (MOD designation "CR2") is a third generation British main battle tank (MBT) in service with the armies of the United Kingdom and Oman. It was designed and built by the British company Vickers Defence Systems (now known as BAE Systems Land & Armaments).
Vickers Defence Systems began to develop a successor to the Challenger 1 as a private venture in 1986. The Ministry of Defence ordered a prototype in December 1988. In June 1991, the MoD placed an order for 140 vehicles, with a further 268 ordered in 1994. Production began in 1993 and the unit's tanks were delivered in July 1994, replacing the Challenger 1. After a production delay, the tank entered service with the British Army in 1998, with the last delivered in 2002. The Challenger 2 was also exported to Oman.
