From The Irish Times, 2nd May 2022
Defence sources said the option currently being considered is a “Level of Ambition 2.5” ... This would see the Defence Forces receiving hugely increased cyber capabilities and a primary radar system which would allow it to monitor effectively Irish skies for the first time.
It would also receive increased air lift capacity, improved armoured personnel carriers and an increase in numbers in the Naval Service to allow ships to spend more time at sea.
