The UK will release its armed forces investment plan on Tuesday after repeated delays, @SkyNews reported. The document will not provide the scale of funding sought by military chiefs. Land, sea and air drones appear on the shopping list.
A future fleet of destroyers has been removed from the plan. The plan's release comes after multiple postponements. It reflects scaled-back ambitions for equipment modernization.
