Unmanned Marine Systems: Procurement
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether he has placed an order for any Extra-Large Unmanned Underwater Vehicles since 5 July 2024.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Ministry of Defence has not placed any orders for Extra-Large Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (XL-UUV) since 5 July 2024. The Royal Navy has an experimental XL-UUV, known as Excalibur, which was delivered this year and is currently undergoing trials and experimentation. Investment decisions will be in the Defence Investment Plan.
