<p>Work on the Type 45 Destroyers funded by the Ministry of Defence includes In-Service
Support and Fleet Time Engineering (FTE). Under the In-Service Support Contract, which
covers the entire class of vessels, costs are not attributable to individual ships.
It is, therefore, not possible to identify separately the total cost of the work carried
out on individual ships since entering service with the Royal Navy. The total cost
to the Department of In-Service Support and FTE on the six ships in the class since
they entered service is £370 million.<br><br>BAE Systems has not funded any work on
the Type 45 Destroyers.</p>
