The uncompromising drama, which has been nominated in six categories of the Critics' Awards for Theatre in Scotland, is from the National Theatre of Scotland and was written by Gregory Burke.
Other Radio 3 drama highlights include new radio adaptations of Abi Morgan's 'Splendour' and Oscar Wilde's 'An Ideal Husband'.
The play has been described as "an unauthorised biography of the legendary Scottish regiment", Black Watch, and was the must-see play at last year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
The drama hurtles from a pool room in Fife to an armoured wagon in Iraq, 'Black Watch' tells the story of the famous Scottish army regiment through the voices of the men who served.
'Black Watch' has won a Herald Angel; a Scotsman Fringe First; a Best Theatre Writing Award from The List; a Stage Award for Best Ensemble; and The South Bank Show Award for Theatre.
