    Remarques

    Please note that the value listed under 4(iii) for Engineers refers to the number of Managers at the facility, not Engineers.

    Additionally, the funding level estimate provided under 4(vii) for Research is the total funding level estimate (including salaries) for research, development and test and evaluation collectively.
