QE 13%

Astute 12%
FSTA 9%
F35 6%
Complex weaps 5%


You might also find that QE ain't even in the top four most expensive programmes in the EP. Look elsewhere for your pay limit, but don't let that get in the way of a good tantrum eh?
What you fail to see NOB, is that the whole carrier farce is wasted expenditure. There is a difference between capabilities that the UK should have and, those that we don't need!
