The Ministry of Defence continually seeks to identify export opportunities for the UK defence industry, working with the UK Defence Solution Centre and industry, and in line with UK licencing.

We have a pipeline of appointments for UK platforms, components and services and as the Minister responsible for exports I need the team regularly to review actions, appointments and next steps.
