The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the planned in service date is for Project Nightfall.

Answered by Luke Pollard

The Department has not determined the in-service date for Project NIGHTFALL as we have yet to launch the competition and receive formal industry bids. We expect to launch the NIGHTFALL competition in December 2025.
