Unmanned Air Systems: Procurement
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether he plans to procure the Gambit 5 UCAV for use by the Royal Navy.
Answered by Maria Eagle
The Royal Navy is exploring how Fixed Wing Autonomous Collaborative Platforms (FW ACPs) could augment F35B Lightning embarked in Queen Elizabeth Class (QEC) carriers to provide additional strike capability. There are a number of emerging solutions for this capability and the Royal Navy will work collaboratively with the Royal Air Force to evaluate these solutions.
