Written question asked by Lord Gilbert (Labour), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Lord Astor of Hever (Conservative) on Tuesday, 9 November 2010.


Armed Forces: A400M

Question
To ask Her Majesty’s Government with which countries the Royal Air Force will lose its interoperability as a result of the forthcoming replacement of the C130 by the A400M.
Answer

The Royal Air Force will not lose interoperability with any countries as a result of the drawdown of the C-130J Hercules and entry into service of the A400M. The A400M will continue to interoperate with NATO and allied countries in very much the same manner as the C-130J Hercules.
