    ps heres a quote from hmforces website
    The armed forces pension scheme is one of the benefits of the Armed Forces as you do not make any direct contributions towards it and your benefits are calculated from your final pensionable pay.

    My bold.
    Of course if the abatement was added to salary and then deducted the pension would be higher as the "final pensionable pay" it's based on would be higher
