I would imagine the contract includes spare engines, spares, software, manuals, support, training etc, plus the UK extras such as radar - But for details we will have to wait for the FMS contract to be published.
£1.4Bn isn’t close to £2Bn, but it is far closer to $2Bn US - which is my question.
But I await with interest to see where the rest of the charges come from. As one of the biggest CH-47 operators in the world, it’s not like we’re starting from scratch here.
