The UK Government is set to purchase 12 new fighter jets which can be equipped with nuclear bombs - with plans to join NATO's airborne nuclear mission.

Downing Street has labelled the move "the biggest strengthening of the UK's nuclear posture in a generation."

UK correspondent Gavin Grey says these jets can also drop conventional weapons.
