HC Deb 18 October 1982 vol 29 c48W
Sir Patrick Wall

asked the Secretary of State for Defence, in view of the fact that the Sea Cat mounting can now be adapted for Sea Wolf, what ships are to have their Sea Cat system replaced by Sea Wolf.

Mr. Pattie:

A demonstration firing of a Sea Wolf missile from an adapted Sea Cat launcher has been conducted. But extensive modifications to the Sea Cat system would be necessary for controlled guidance of Sea Wolf missiles. The Ministry of Defence continues to follow British Aerospace's work in this area with interest.
