§ Mr. HancockTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence what assessment he has made of the impact which a US decision to outfit its AGM-154C Joint Stand-off Weapon with BAe Systems' Bomb Royal Ordnance Augmented Charge would have on the UK defence industry; and if he will make a statement. [116937]
§ Dr. MoonieAlthough no decision has yet been made by the US authorities, the selection of BROACH as the preferred warhead for its Navy's Joint Stand-Off Weapon would be an important success for the UK defence industry. If successful, there would be new jobs created in both the UK and the US.
