Hi there,

Thanks for your question. I can see you’ve been waiting a while for an answer so I thought I’d try to give you a little extra information.

I’m afraid I can’t answer your question directly about a height limit in the RAC, I cannot find anything to suggest that there is an official height criterion to be met but our recruiters would be the best people to ask to confirm that. If you start an application someone will be in touch and you can raise the question with them.

Some countries do impose height restrictions on soldiers that frequently travel in armour as there needs to be a clearance between head height and the armoured plating for safety reasons. The recruiters will have the most up to date information.

Sorry not to be able to offer a definitive answer.

Katie
