Yes and no. The delays push costs up but the new contracts put at least some if not most of the over run on the contractors.

You seriously think they haven't developed a defense against EMP? It's not the be all end all weapon. The military and weapon designers have been aware of it since the 40s, and you think they haven't come up with a counter?

The UK and other close allies will never buy Russian or Chinese. They are too close and have too much interoperability. It's better and easier for that to happen if you have similar equipment and training.
