Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what savings targets were set for the TyTAN support programme for Typhoon; what savings have been made to date; and how much of the savings have been reinvested into Typhoon capability upgrades.

Awarded in 2016, the ten year £2.14 billion TyTAN support contract represents a savings target of 38% compared to previous support arrangements for UK Typhoon.

To date, over £500 million of savings have been realised and ringfenced for Typhoon capability upgrades over the next ten years.
