Typhoon Aircraft
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps he is taking to support Typhoon production.
Answered by Luke Pollard
Defence is an engine for growth, as demonstrated by the recent deal this Government signed with Türkiye for 20 Eurofighter Typhoons, worth £8 billion to the UK economy and supporting a key NATO ally. This deal secures thousands of skilled jobs for the UK, including those workers in Warton and Samlesbury who I had the pleasure of meeting recently.
