UK commits to Typhoon AESA production, saves Sentinel and looks to invest in more UAS

Details are scant at the moment, but £1.1bn has been committed by David Cameron at Farnborough to boost ISTAR and fund RAF Typhoon AESA.

There is talk of more investment in drones, but is this new investment or support for existing systems like Watchkeeper and Reaper I wonder?

It is also supposed that Sentinel is being kept in service beyond the original 2015 out of service date:
