Antiship Missiles
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to paragraph 6 of the Defence Investment Plan, published on 30 June 2026, what is the current status of the Future Cruise/Anti-Ship weapon.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Stratus programme with our European partners continues to progress to schedule. Development of the weapons and sub-systems is maturing, and the programme will transition soon to its Demonstration Phase. The weapons systems are planned to be integrated variously to Typhoon, Rafale and selected naval platforms including the Royal Navy's Type 26 frigate.
