The term white fleet is used in several countries, including Australia, New Zealand, and UK with reference to fleet management of the defence vehicular assets to distinguish from fighting vehicles and green fleet vehicles.
Australia
As of 2015 Australian Department of Defence white fleet vehicles are leased from SG Fleet under contract.
United Kingdom
The UK Ministry of Defence's white fleet ownership was outsourced in 2001 on a 10-year contract to Lex Defence. The contract through a series of acquisitions now comes under the control of Babcock International.
