And once again a Minister confirms the intent to order CVF:
Will the Minister tell us when the order will be placed for the two new carriers that the Navy so desperately wants?
Mr. Ingram: If the right hon. Gentleman participated more in defence debates more, he would understand—
Mr. Ellwood: He knows!
Mr. Ingram: If I had the answer today, I would love to announce it from the Dispatch Box. We have moved through the phases of developing and maturing the procurement process for the aircraft carriers. When we get everything into the right position—that requires industry to play its part—we will make the announcement.
Which is more than can be said for FRES, Typhoon Tranche 3, FSTA etc
