Summary
The Red Arrows represent British engineering, skill and national identity. We believe this iconic team should continue to showcase British aerospace excellence by flying a new British-designed and built aircraft when their existing aircraft are retired. We believe that the Red Arrows' aircraft were never just for aerobatics, but that they symbolise British innovation, supporting industry, skills and training capability. Their successor will shape the future Red Arrows and how we train British pilots for decades. Buying foreign aircraft might make us dependent on foreign suppliers, reducing UK control over critical pilot training. A British-designed and built successor would create skilled jobs, grow design and manufacturing capability, keeping these vital skills in the UK where they belong.’
