The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what recent assessment he has made of the adequacy of the RAF's anti-radar missile capability.

Answered by Maria Eagle

The Department has no anti-radar missile in its inventory or Equipment Plan programme of record. The Strategic Defence Review (SDR) is looking at the threats we face and the capabilities we need to meet the challenges and threats of the 21st century. The SDR will ensure the UK is secure at home and strong abroad.
