The British Ministry of Defence announced on July 7th that it would initiate a $692-million upgrade program for the Royal Navy’s destroyer fleet.
The funds will be used to increase firepower deployed from vertical launch cells of Type 45 destroyers.

Britain’s Minister for Defense Procurement, Jeremy Quin, stated,
“Enhancing our destroyer capabilities, this investment reaffirms our commitment to equip the Royal Navy with the most advanced and powerful defensive systems... This upgrade ensures the Type 45 remains hugely respected by naval fleets across the globe and secures highly-skilled jobs and investment.”

Royal Navy Fleet Commander, Vice Admiral Jerry Kyd CBE stated, “These programs will provide an exceptional capability to the front line, ensuring the RN remains poised to defend the surface fleet, and most importantly the Carrier Strike Group, against complex air threats both now and into the future.”


In this video Defense Updates analyses why the move of a 50% increase in firepower from vertical launch cells of Britain's Type 45 Daring Class destroyer is a welcome step?
