Tempest will probably not come to fruition. BAES no longer has the in-house requisite skills capability. Insider opinion, not mine. But maybe they can be imported?

Also, UK Government arguably doesn't have the funds to go it alone. It didn't in the 80's, and circumstances have almost certainly not created any such allowance since. IMO.

But with Sweden?
