Navy: Warships
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the current ship-to-ship lethality capabilities of the Royal Navy surface fleet.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Royal Navy is undertaking a significant programme to modernise and increase the lethality of the Fleet. The introduction of Sea Venom and the Naval Strike Missile are key aspects of this programme which will be followed by further capability upgrades over the next few years.
