Rejected petition Ensure the UK Gov builds the next Red Arrows in the UK, protecting industry .
BAE has decided to reduce its workforce at the Brough and Warton Unit. If these jobs go, this would significantly bring into doubt the ability of the UK to have the ability to build these aircraft in the UK, would you want the Worlds No 1 display team flying aircraft from America!
More details
The existing Red Arrow fleet are of a T1 standard, they are coming to the end of their natural life. The UK Government has repeatedly said that these aircraft need replacing by the early 2020's. The RED ARROWS are iconic, they are the Best Of British, please support this amazing team and along with that British Industry. Your support does matter, when they fly overhead we all look up! lets not lose the capability and ability to produce a world class product
