TWO RAF jets used by Rishi Sunak are to be upgraded with hi-tech defences like those in movie Top Gun: Maverick.
The Ministry of Defence has splashed out £80million to kit out the planes with chaff and flare systems.
These defences are used to lure missiles away from their target.
It is included in gadgetry upgrades similar to those on show in the hit Tom Cruise film.
Protective flight deck armour and tech to thwart enemy jamming signals are also due to be installed.
It will all enable the PM, royals and other VIPs to travel through high-risk airspaces.
An MoD spokesman said: “Two Envoy IV aircraft were purchased last year, providing a more modern and efficient aircraft than their predecessor.
“Both aircraft will receive defensive military modification in the coming years, and an expression of interest for this work has been released.”
