I'm not convinced on the cost savings of bringing in a new airframe. Thought the MoD was trying to consolidate assets. I hope they've done the costings properly; £ needed for infrastructure £ new training £ more spares to buy & hold Will we be leasing the bombs? else ££ on end-of-life disposal

A threat to GCAP (Tempest)?

I'm genuinely shocked that this could happen. If protesters can do this so easily, you wonder how much damage could 'others' do!

That would be wasted time and money. The easiest way would be to ask France. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-sol...

12 hulls, over a period of 40 years? We just done have the resources (money, crew, industrial and time).

4 ships at £2 billion each anyone?

Displacement will be on the upper end of the spectrum, just as the Italan DDX has grown in every article - 14,000 tonnes now! Large hulls are needed for high and heavy radars. I wonder if BAE's Janet Harvey Hall could be expanded. As the limiting factor will be in existing infrastructure

Another speech short of substance. Do we have a date for when the SDR25 will be published, or are the MOD still being vague about it?

More talk. Endless talk and little action.

We're all bark and no bite though, aren't we? Few F35's which have short legs, and no stand-off munitions.

The sound design of the drones is amazing, so menacing! 🔊

Do you think it's got chance at LMP(M)?

Great summary. I agree completely. Hopefully, we will get some movement soon 🚗

Ah yes, but this requires money. And the UK government is run by the treasurey. So how are we going to convince the treasurey to fund this?

I wonder if the UK 🇬🇧 will follow?

Ideally, we would be looking at EuroPULS, but doubt Lockheed Martin will allow us to use our existing munitions stocks with a competitor system.
