| INDICATORS | FY 2012-13 | FY 2011-12 | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Input Indicators | Not set | Not set | Not set |
| Additional cost of operations in Afghanistan, per Service person deployed. | £297,025 | £364,000 | This is the total Net Additional Cost of Military Operations (including UORs) over the year, divided by the endorsed manpower level (9,900 for all of 2012-13). It is slightly lower this year due to reductions in the amounts spent on infrastructure and equipment prior to draw down. |
| Additional cost of new equipment (Urgent Operational Requirements (UOR)) for operations in Afghanistan, per Service person deployed. | £37,000 | £60,012 | This is the total spent on UORs over the year, divided by the endorsed manpower level (9,900 for all of 2012-13). It is substantially lower this year due to sizeable reductions in the amount spent on equipment prior to draw down. |
| Average percentage by which the cost of the Department's Equipment Programme (EP) varies compared to forecasts in year. | 0.26% | 1.41% | This figure is the average slippage across the Department's largest projects (Category C and above) in the last year. It is a continuation of a long term trend of reduced programme delays, reflecting improvements in project and programme management. |
| Cost of major Force Elements (FE): Ship Brigade Aircraft (fixed wing) Helicopter | £33.5M £654M £8.34M £3.62M | £34.0M £661M £8.05M £3.41M | This figure is calculated by attributing Defence expenditure to each of the major Force Elements. The costs have remained roughly constant. |
| Direct personnel costs, per Service person. | £55,024 | £52,000 | This is the total spend on military manpower divided by the number of Service personnel over the year. It rose slightly this year, in part reflecting the increase in pay for military personnel. |

| Progress towards a stable and secure Afganistan. | 96% | 105% | This is the percentage of Afghan National Security Forces against the NATO target. The strength of the ANSF has increased this year from 330,000 to 336,000, but the target for this year also inicreased from 312,000 to 351,000. |
| Number of Service and MOD civilian personnel deployed on all operations in a year. | 11,476 | 15,582 | This is the total number of personnel deployed on operations both in the UK and overseas. The figure is lower this year due to the end of operations in Libya. |
| Percentage of Service personnel that are deployable. | 91.10% | 92.00% | This figure has remained constant from last year. |
| Number of Force Elements (FE) (typically ships, ground force sub-units and aircraft) showing critical or serious weakness against the total number of FE for Strategy for Defence (SfD) priorities. | 8% | 10% | This figure is slightly better than last year's. We expect it to improve substantially as forces return from Afghanistan. |
| Percentage of Service personnel) split by Officers and Other Ranks who are satisfied with Service life in general. | 59% / 50% | 62% / 56% | The significant drop from last year is likely to be due to a combination of pay restraint and the announcement of redundancies. |
| Overall public favourability of the UK Armed Forces. | 85% | 85% | This figure remains encouragingly high. |
