Rishi Sunak has announced GBP 4.9 bn additional defence spending over two years.

'Downing Street said £3bn from the extra spending would be earmarked to support the pact (AUKUS) , along with boosting industrial infrastructure and servicing UK submarines.'

'The remaining £1.9bn will be used to replace weapons sent to Ukraine and improve the UK's munitions infrastructure.'
