Could actually be titled "more ghastly cost overruns loom in defense budget"

actually if you look closely they are getting in a pre-emptive strike against the govt

The govt said it will look at defence funding based on Libya later this year and decide what (if any) extra cash might be made available

the MoD are saying "ooo they haven't promised anything written in Dave's blood so IF we don't get more then we have to think about more cuts" and leak it to the press

Classic piece of Sir Humphryism
