abstract
  • Royal Ordnance plc, formed on 2nd January 1985 as a public corporation, owned the majority of what until then were the remaining United Kingdom government-owned Royal Ordnance Factories (abbreviated ROFs) which manufactured explosives, ammunition, small arms including the Lee-Enfield rifle, guns and military vehicles such as tanks. Royal Ordnance plc was bought by British Aerospace (BAe) in April 1987, which became BAE Systems in 1999. The name Royal Ordnance was retained for almost another twenty years; and the sites retained their former names, either as Royal Ordnance or later RO Defence sites. However, in 2004 Royal Ordnance was renamed BAE Systems Land Systems (Munitions & Ordnance). In 2005 it became part of BAE Systems Land and Armaments.
