HC Deb 08 November 1982 vol 31 c87W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he is satisfied with the Nimrod early warning capacity in the South Atlantic.

Mr. Blaker

Nimrod airborne early warning aircraft have not yet entered service. The aircraft which the hon. Member may have in mind are Nimrod maritime reconnaissance aircraft, which have conducted successful operations in the South Atlantic.
