Britain is set to massively increase its production of explosives in order to forgo a reliance on the US and France for ammunition. 


Sites will be erected by BAE Systems across the UK to produce RDX explosives, used in ammunition for British Army guns and other weapons. 


The British defence company will also be looking to build three new manufacturing sites to add 'resilience', should one come under attack.
