Defence Minister Philip Dunne has been to the MOD site at Longtown in Cumbria, to hear more about the plans for the site.
It was announced last month that the site would not be closing, after years of uncertainty - although more than 50 jobs will go.
Today, Mr Dunne spoke to Unions and the Council about their concerns over job losses, and how they're working together, to turn the site into a dual military and industry hub.
