National Security Through Technology

Technology key to UK defence and security

National Security Through Technology states the Government’s commitment to sustain investment in defence science and technology and improve funding whenever possible over the Spending Review Period.

It provides a sustainable basis for industry to produce high technology equipment for the Armed Forces.

It also provides the Government with the ability to apply state-of-the-art techniques to ensure success, plus the knowledge to make decisions operationally and at policy level.
