MOD hands Musk’s Starlink £16m as Ukraine support drives satellite spend

Elon Musk has launched a $134 billion lawsuit against OpenAI and Microsoft, claiming both companies unjustly profited from his early backing of the artificial intelligence pioneer and abandoned its founding mission.

The Ministry of Defence has handed £16.6m to Elon Musk’s Starlink over the past four years, with much of the bill underwriting Britain’s military support for Ukraine and keeping deployed personnel connected to home.
