LE TacCIS Programme

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the costs are of cancellation of the Morpheus contract with General Dynamics.

Answer

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has concluded the Evolve to Open Transition Partner contract, with General Dynamics Mission Systems (UK) (GDMS(UK)), which was due to deliver a lab tested design for Project MORPHEUS.

Overall, the MOD has reached a position where the deliverables are sufficient to enable the future of the MORPHEUS project and the next generation of tactical communications, a position reinforced by strong market engagement with suppliers. Due to the confidentiality provisions in the contract protecting commercial interests we are unable to provide further detail.
