Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether the £271 million Wildcat Helicopter support deal with Leonardo Helicopters, announced on 9 January, is the same agreement that was announced in 2012.
This question was answered on 18th January 2017
In 2012, the Wildcat contract only agreed a price for the initial five years.
The announcement of 9 January confirms a continuing need for Leonardo's support and provides confidence for the company and its workforce for the coming five years. This Government is committed to supporting the capabilities that are provided by Leonardo Helicopters in Yeovil.
