The fleet size and manufacturing contract are subject to ongoing negotiations, and the investment decision will be based on confirmation of value for money through the Ministry of Defence approvals process. Manufacture timing and numbers will also be dependent on proving the design through trials, which will start in January 2018 and are planned to be completed in 2020.
