Proceeding contribution from Bob Ainsworth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 April 2009. It occurred during Debate on Defence Procurement.


Defence Procurement

The hon. Gentleman should not take everything too far. The missile system is being tested and, before HMS Daring goes on operations, it will have not only its current phenomenal radar capability but the missile system to go with it. The ship does not have the system now, but it is not on operations. By the time the missile system is needed operationally, it will be available to the Type 45 destroyer.
