F-35 Aircraft: Antiship Missiles
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what his planned timeline is for the integration of the Future Cruise/Anti-Ship Weapon on the Joint Strike Fighter.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Future Cruise Anti-Ship Weapon programme is designed to be integrated on Typhoon and Rafale aircraft, as well as future platforms including the Global Combat Air Programme. Fit checks on F35 have been successfully conducted to test if FC/ASW can be integrated if required. All decisions on capabilities will be in the Defence Investment Plan.
