HC Deb 08 May 1986 vol 97 c219W
Mr. Denzil Davies

asked the Secretary of State for Defence whether there is any delay in the development of the rocket system of the ALARM missile.

Mr. Norman Lamont

Yes. Some technical difficulties have been encountered, and the air weapons division of British Aerospace, as the prime contractor for the ALARM programme, is considering urgently how the problems might best be overcome.
