§ 31. Mr. Speedasked the Secretary of State for Defence what consideration is being given to fitting the anti-ship Sea Eagle missile to the EH 101 helicopter.
§ Mr. Norman LamontThe primary role planned for the EH 101 is as an anti-submarine warfare helicopter for the Royal Navy. As such it is not currently designed to carry anti-ship missiles. However, studies are being undertaken into possibilities for extending the EH 101's capability to include the carriage of missiles such as Sea Eagle, although no decision has yet been taken.
