Proceeding contribution from Madeleine Moon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 January 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate on Strategic Defence and Security Review.
Strategic Defence and Security Review
Is the hon. Gentleman aware that Admiral Sir Trevor Soar, Commander-in-Chief, Fleet, said in a speech to industrialists in the US that, due to the US defence cuts, the chance of us being able to buy the joint strike fighter are reducing, as it will not be delivered on time? As alternatives, we will have to look at the F-18 from the Americans and the Rafale from the French.
