these Rifles aren't L85's ( bullpup) , C8's (M4) ( wrong stock), G36's (Wrong profile) or even HK33's (way wrong) for sure. the Stock looks like a Folder, the Forearm is polymer... they look like Berreta ARX160's but that would make these these soldiers Italian? unless the UK is testing some thing new. then again the helmet looks American style not British and the uniform is wrong...

Edit:The Flag on the Uniform is Swedish and the Rifle is an AK5 variant
