That is where the blame lies, Cameron and his government said enough was enough and decided after consultation with Airforce chiefs (fast jet jockeys) that they would not throw good money after bad.
The MRA4 is already paid for, 5 aircraft are built and the other 4 would have been finished this year early next. Woodford was earmarked for closure next year. The only good money being wasted now is the £200 million earmarked for the actual scrapping plus a rumored £1 billion in contracts compensation for BAE & Rolls Royce.
Cameron is actually wasting more money on this project thru scrappage than if they had carried on with it, the £1.2 billion would have kept the MRA4 in the air for 6 years and secured 1000s of jobs within the RAF and civilian contractors.
