Delete as appropriate in the following fictional press release that could appear:
The decision to upgrade the nimrod/puma fleet was taken based on expected deliverables from Industry. As the nimrod/puma upgrade has taken place, extensive and unexpected fatigue and compatability issues have arisen which have significantly increased the cost of the nimrod/puma upgrade. MOD remains confident that the nimrod/puma upgrade, despite being 2/3/4/5 years late and 20%/50%/100% over cost remains value for money.....
But of course, this would never happen....
