There are two things that come to my mind here: -

We are informed that other users had been informed many years previously about this problem. What was the process for informing them? Was SIL 704 a reissue of a previous communication, that the MOD/RAF had not noticed that it had not got?

What was the advice to the other users of the Mk10 seat and if this advice had been implemented by the RAF would this event have occurred? The other side of this question is did the advice to users required new parts to be put into the seats? If so, from a corporate governance point of view, how is it that MB did not notice that the MOD/RAF had not ordered any of these kits..
