Agreed!
Good money after bad, having a few contacts at BAE Systems I can tell you they thought previous cost/time overuns would be accepted by the ConDems, so fair fell off their seats when this was announced.
However PP is correct, its now 10 years overdue and basically out of date despite wishes of BAE to add up to date extras, to carry out new feasability exercises for the cost, the impact and other scoping works all charged for at more than premium rates.
Sometimes cheaper to throw away and buy new and better and that includes those within BAE who thought this sort of "cost spinning" was acceptable to the public purse.
As always
