HC Deb 10 May 1961 vol 640 c55W
79. Mr. Critchley

asked the Minister of Aviation if he is satisfied with the progress of the Blue Steel 1* stand-off bomb: and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Rippon

The weapon is Blue Steel: there is no Mark 1*. Development is proceeding normally and I would not propose to make further statements on the progress of this weapon.
