Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what cost savings they have achieved to date through the TyTAN Typhoon aircraft programme; and where any such savings have been reallocated.
This question was answered on 8th October 2020
The 10-year £2.14 billion Typhoon Total Availability Enterprise support contract was awarded to BAE Systems in July 2016 and represents a saving of 38% compared to previous arrangements. To date, more than £500 million of savings have been realised and recycled to fund Typhoon capability upgrades over the next ten years.
