My take on this may be wrong, but I notice the Sunday Times today reports the FRES ISD will be delayed five years until 2017. (The ISD for the APC version of FRES was to have been 2008 with other variants delivered during the next 4 years). This looks a fine opportunity to free up funds in the correct timescale for CVF/JSF/MASC. Not sure what the troops in vulnerable paper thin vehicles will think though.
