What Britain still builds in aerospace and missiles

Does the United Kingdom still build its own missiles and aircraft?

Yes, although much production is collaborative: Britain builds major parts of multinational aircraft, some complete aircraft and helicopters, unmanned systems, and a number of missiles.

Britain still manufactures significant portions of the Eurofighter and Airbus programmes rather than producing every major aircraft alone. It also retains the ability to build some complete aircraft and helicopters, with the Hawk, unmanned systems, Lynx, and Merlin offered as examples. Missile manufacture likewise continues for at least part of the national inventory. The useful distinction is between losing all industrial capability and participating in multinational supply chains that divide design and production among partners.
