THE BASTARDS
BAE is planning to end manufacturing at its Brough site at a time when the company is bidding for one of the biggest Hawk contracts in its history, the Mail can reveal.
The company is bidding for a £5 billion contract from the US Government to build between 350 and 500 Hawk trainer jets for the US Air Force.
But instead of construction being carried out in Brough – the home of Hawk manufacturing – BAE has signed an agreement with US aviation giant Northrop Grumman, which would see the aircraft built by American workers.
BAE has unveiled Virginia-based Northrop Grumman as its "manufacturing partner" as it attempts to secure the "T-X Program" to replace T-38 training jets.
The move is another blow to the Brough workforce, who were told this week 899 jobs would be cut at the site.
This would end manufacturing at Brough and leave just 400 workers to focus on research and development, which prompted the Mail to launch its Battle For Brough campaign.
