You have to love it when the priorities are all focussed on delivering savings, reports, restructuring, retiring platforms, reduce the number of Army personnel by around 20,000, etc. Whatever happened to 'capability' and 'operational effectiveness'?

I know it's a 'business plan' (since when were the Armed Forces businesses?), but instead of (for example) 'Deliver A400M Steering Committee annual review', shouldn't it be 'Deliver A400M'?

Insead of 'Take forward work to replace unprotected support vehicles with protected ones', why not 'Replace unprotected support vehicles with protected ones'. 'Take forward work' could mean simply deciding what colour to paint it.

There are some instances of 'Introduce xxx into service', which is good. Let's hope the openning words, 'This plan will be updated annually' doesn't mean what I think it means...
