Ok, back home. Sorry if the previous posts look cluttered i sent them from my mobile. For the 1990-91 time period i have the following #'s for the the RAC :
Challenger1 = 450
Chieftain = 830
Centurion = 50(converted to AVRE) with another 570 in store
These are the CFE totals acoording to The Military Balance.
Again as for the Ard. Recce Rgt.'s, two are in BAOR, one in Wimbish to reinforce BAOR (serving as Div. Recce), one @ Tidworth to UKMF (one sqd. goes to AMF(L)) & finally the Household Cavalry rgt. @ Windsor (2 tracked Sqd.'s, one each to 5 Abn. Bde & 3 Cdo. Bde with the 3rd Fox equipped Sqd. to stay as Home Defence).
Ard. Recce Rgt.(Tracked BAOR)
48 Scimitar, 16 Striker, 16 Spartan
Ard. Recce Rgt.(Tracked UK)
24 Scimitar, 24 Scorpion, 16 Striker, 15 Spartan
Ard. Recce Rgt.(UK)
32 Scorpion, 16 Fox, 15 Spartan
The two yeomanry rgt.'s assigned to 2nd Inf. Div. (The Royal Yeomanry & Queen's Own Yeomanry) had 80 Fox & 20 Spartan in four sqd.'s. According to The Tank: Journal of The Royal Tank Regimernt Feb. 1990 they were being used as a mobile AT element to support the Corps rear area.
For what its worth in the T2k timeline there seems to be a build up to war so IMC I've slightly expanded the regular & TA. As a prime example I re-raised 5 RTR.
