HC Deb 16 December 1993 vol 234 c892W
Mr. Redmond

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence (1) what is the current in-service date for the ground proximity warning system for the Jaguar aircraft;

(2) if he will list the dates of key project milestones for the development of ground proximity warning systems for (a) the Tornado GR, (b) the Tornado F3, (c) the Harrier GR5/7, (d) the Hawk, (e) The Tucano and (f) The Hercules; what plans he has to fit such a system to the Eurofighter in RAF service; and what other types in United Kingdom military service are under consideration for fitment of such a device.

Mr. Hanley

The only such project which currently has formal project milestones is the fitment of a ground proximity warning system to the Jaguar aircraft, the in-service date for which is 1997. We are also considering fitting such systems to the Tornado GR 1/1 A and F3, Harrier GR7 and T10, Hawk, Tucano and Eurofighter 2000 aircraft.
