Defence: Space Technology
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how much funding his Department is providing for strategic national space capabilities in each of the next three years.
Answered by Al Carns
The Ministry of Defence is committed to developing the Defence Space Portfolio and wider space requirements to harness space for national and military advantage. The recent publication of the Strategic Defence Review served to reinforce the importance of the space domain and the need to invest appropriately. The level of investment will be prioritised appropriately against the threat as part of the future Integrated Force and set out in the Defence Investment Plan to be published this year.
