The Nimrod MRA4 airframes were dismantled on the Ministry of Defence (MOD)'s behalf by Metal and Waste Recycling Ltd at a cost of around £500,000. As part of the contractual arrangements with the company, the MOD received receipts from the sale of the dismantled airframes to the value of just over £1 million.
