“Ukraine certainly requires more of all of these things, as well as humanitarian aid which the UK is also providing. So far the UK and other countries have largely drawn on stocks of equipment and ammunition to supply Ukraine due to the urgency of the situation.”

“This risks stretching supplies that are already low compared to yesteryear, says Francis Tusa, a defence analyst. The problem is that UK stocks were so low. When we got there the cupboard was almost bare,” he says.

“Helmets and body armour have also come out of the UK’s stockpile”

Guess that means a new order coming soon for Avon!

Prob Short squeeze with the funds covering their short positions which is always good to see as an indicator

[r2oo] 07/9/2022 17:13

A notable 33 percent increase was nice today although zoom out to a 3yr chart and it's a mere blip that barely registers. Long way to go yet.Will be interesting to see if the positive momentum continues tomorrow and Friday!

[ch1ck] 07/9/2022 17:02

The fact they did not rush to announce an insider could be good news but let's see

[ch1ck] 07/9/2022 17:01

I asked last week for an update to trading and the search for a new director I would love to think it triggered this RNS but am not that daft.The market was ripe for good news from a military provider that had been beaten down. It could continue to rise as news of Paul's replacement could be near

[hope67] 07/9/2022 16:29

Maybe there is more contracts in the pipe.

[glavey] 07/9/2022 16:16

Bit of an extreme jump for a trading update quite thin on detail. The 'filters' order starts the following year and should extend over a number of years one would expect, given the 5yr shelf life.
