As long as you don't try and use it in a dusty/sandy/muddy environment. Which is to say, everywhere the UK military has been in the last thirty years.

Edit: The weapon platform got better in later revisions, but never shed the reputation, and that means the servicemen don't trust it, which is awful from a morale viewpoint. The sooner it's completely replaced the better for myriad reasons.
