To launch an indepent inquiry why when 7 out of the 9 Nimrods had been constructed and were flying the government said the project was a failure.

Additional Information

7 out of the 9 Nimrods ordered by the MOD had been built and were airworthy. Yet the governments excuse was that it was taking too long to complete the project. Its enough for a new squadron by itself. If the government did not want the Nimrod it should come clean instead of lie. Since it got rid of them the UK has been having to rely on the USA to defends its home waters. Most recently when an incursion by Russian subs could not stopped because we did have the capability the Nimrod would of given the UK.
