Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what contractual payments to General Dynamics for the Ajax programme have been made since 1 January 2025; and on which dates were they made.
The Ministry of Defence paid General Dynamics Land Systems UK £330 million in line with contractual obligations for the Ajax programme between 1 January 2025 and 12 January 2026. I am unable to publish details of the milestones and payment schedule as this may prejudice the Department's commercial interests.
