| /TI | Critical time for UK naval industry |

| /TX | THE UK naval equipment industry is at a crossroads. The possibility of |
| substantial overseas orders could mean a bright, long-term future for many | |
| companies, while other companies may have to cut back, due to dwindling | |
| domestic orders. | |
| (. . .) | |
| Canada has, however, turned to the UK for helicopters for its new | |
| 'Halifax' class destroyers with a letter of intent to EH Industries | |
| for the proposed purchase of 25 EH 101s. | |
| A number of UK companies have also supplied equipment, or have been | |
| approached to assist with the 'Tribal' class frigate update and | |
| modernisation programme. | |
| Canada and The Netherlands have expressed interest in the 'River' | |
| class design of ocean minesweepers, which may be sharpened by the | |
| current situation in the Gulf. | |
| The Vosper Thornycroft updated Leander class frigate and the Type 23 | |
| are among 11 contenders for the eight-ship Australian Light Frigate | |
| Programme. | |
| (. . .) | |
| The Leander is also a prime contender for the Greek frigate | |
| competition. | |
| There must be considerable reservations by foreign navies on | |
| proposals for a modernised export version of the Oberon submarine | |
| design. | |
| Most navies are unlikely to view favourably a desing originating in | |
| the 1950s. | |
| (. . .) | |
| However, continuing UK Government delays in ship procurement for the | |
| Royal Navy will directly affect overseas orders. | |
| A shrinking Royal Navy, and consequently the industrial base that | |
| supports it, will not breed confidence in the UK's ability to keep | |
| in front of naval technology. | |
| Competition, upon which the government puts such store, is in danger | |
| of becoming meaningless, since, lacking any firm indications of | |
| long-term procurement policies, industry cannot make any plans for | |
| investment in manpower and capital resources. This, in turn, must | |
| increasingly affect the ability of many companies to compete in | |
| foreign markets. | |
