BAE Systems is to axe almost 600 jobs at two of its military factories south of the Border.
Union officials have expressed shock at the scale of the cuts at the sites in Brough, near Hull, and Woodford, near Manchester.
Unite said it would resist compulsory redundancies among the 450 job losses at Brough, home of the Hawk aircraft, and 134 at Woodford, the home of Nimrod.
BAE said the job cuts at Brough would affect engineering, manufacturing and business support areas, while those at Woodford would be engineers.
