Cutbacks, the Silver Lining
Surely its not all bad?
1. More Reapers - Good
2. More Helicopters - Good
3. Improved "close combat equipment package" with "state of the art" body armour and night vision goggles being made available to 50% more troops. - Good
4. More Bowman tactical radios for troops and £80m for special forces communications - Good
5. Improvements to the defensive and support arrangements for the RAF Hercules heavy-lift fleet - Not sure what this means but sounds good.
6. More C_IED detection equipment - Good
7. Another C-17 - Good
Isn't this focus on the guys in the field getting shot at exactly what we have all been asking for? We have no money so we need to spend it as best we can.
Hopefully most of the redundancy's will come from AbbeyWood.
