My personal take on SDSR potential for the Forces:-
RAF:-
Immediate withdrawal of Harrier GR9 with the associated closure of RAF Wittering - saving money on the Cottesmore transfer.
GR4 fleet reduced further to allow transition to Typhoon GA and JCA.
Last Typhoon trance cancelled/mothballed and JCA order drastically reduced.
FSTA PFI re-examined and contract amended/reduced.
A400M cancelled.
VC10 withdrawn immediately.
E3D withdrawn immediatley.
RJ order re-examined.
Extra buy of C130J and C17.
Increased UAV/ISR procurement.
Expansion of RAF Regt Field Sqns to support future FP requirements.
Cancellation of Puma upgrade.
Withdrawal of Sentinel.
Sea King SAR extended.
Royal Navy:
Withdrawal of Harrier removes the requirement for CVF.
New carrier build amended/reduced iaw with reduced JCA buy.
Second carrier to become heli/amphib support.
Convential submarine fleet reduced.
Sea King/ Lynx roles and numbers reduced.
Army:
MBTs scrapped/sold
Heavy Artillery/Mobile Artillery scrapped - except GMLRS.
Rebrigading to Mechanized Infantry with associated light armour.
Removal of the Airborne Role - Air Mobile remains.
Any other thoughts?
