The cost of the upkeep programme for HMS Argyll is not yet finalised and is subject to final agreement with the delivery contractors. This cost will be partially offset by the revenue generated from her sale to BAE, the repurposing of some of her equipment across the Surface Fleet, and the benefits that increased training opportunities within the shipbuilding industry will deliver.
