Unmanned Air Systems: Testing
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether there is a maximum range at which long-range kinetic drones can be tested.
Answered by Al Carns
Defence uses various sites within the United Kingdom and overseas to test and evaluate operational capabilities. Capabilities are aligned to range standing orders, Training Danger Area limitations and the operational range of the system being evaluated. Given the geographical constraints of the United Kingdom, some capabilities are better evaluated overseas alongside our allies and partners.
I am unable to provide further details due to operational sensitivities.
