UK Defence cuts
Citat:UK Defence Secretary John Healey has announced the retirement of several ageing military assets, including Royal Navy ships, Royal Air Force drones, and helicopters, as part of a broader effort to modernise the UK’s Armed Forces and address significant financial pressures in the defence budget. The decision, which will see several key platforms taken out of service by March 2025, is expected to save up to £500 million over the next five years.
Looking at the aviation related budget cuts, the most significant is the early retirement of the Puma HC2 twin-engined medium transport/utility fleet, of which seventeen are reported to be operational. This helicopter was to be replaced by the winner of the New Medium Helicopter programme. However, this programme has been delayed several times.
The other aviation assets which were reported are fourteen of the oldest Chinook heavy-lift helicopters and the fleet of 46 Thales Watchkeeper WK450 Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS).

British assault ships may be sold to another country
Citat:HMS Albion and HMS Bulwark, the Royal Navy’s Albion-class landing platform docks (LPDs), are currently laid up awaiting disposal, according to Maria Eagle, Minister of State (Ministry of Defence).
Citat:The sale is intended to save £9 million annually in maintenance costs, with additional revenue generated from the disposal. The vessels, it is claimed, had effectively been retired by the previous government.
