It will cost more in trade penalties for primary construction and service life support, to cancel the project than it would to put 8 MRA4's into service for 15 years.

All that money spent and nothing to show for it except another huge bill, scandal!!

In fairness to the select committee report (as mentioned) it showed a similar theme for Astute, Sentinel and Type 45. I wonder if any of them are going to be for the chop.

Of course the new carriers are safe, being built in GB's back garden.
