Written question asked by Paul Flynn (Labour) on Wednesday, 27 May 2015, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Monday, 1 June 2015. It was answered by Philip Dunne (Conservative) on Wednesday, 3 June 2015 on behalf of the Ministry of Defence.
Trident Missiles: Testing
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the results are of all WP186 missile compensation tests undertaken by Trident submarines since May 2010.
- Answer
-
These tests are part of a submarine's preparation for deployment. It may take more than one attempt for a submarine to pass the Weapons Procedure 186 missile compensation test, but Trident submarines do not go on patrol without successfully passing. For the purpose of safeguarding national security I am unable to disclose details of these tests.
