Not sure if this has been covered but the PM announced a new Defence and Security review just before Parliament closed 3 days ago for the summer (2 hours) to be led by the National Security Advisor. So what projects are under threat?

Any that require funding, I should imagine...

Basically it is an annual review and here is a link to the review released last December 2016 - https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/575378/national_security_strategy_strategic_defence_security_review _annual_report_2016.pdf

Probably going to include Cubs, Scouts, Brownies and St John's Ambulance in the uniformed numbers.

I'd put a few pennies on 5 Sqn being scrapped as soon as possible, despite their contribution to ops. Perhaps an update on the future of the E-3D too.

Reductions for the army are inevitable too imho.
