HC Deb 26 October 1960 vol 627 c282W
70. Mr. Rankin

asked the Minister of Aviation to what extent Her Majesty's Government are sharing in the development of Skybolt; and when he now expects this project will go into production.

Mr. Rippon

Her Majesty's Government are co-operating with the United States Government in the development of Skybolt to enable it to be used by the United States Air Force and the Royal Air Force. The project is still in the development stage and it is too early to say when it will go into production.
