HC Deb 08 February 1994 vol 237 c232W
14. Mr. Trend

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement on United Kingdom defence exports to Brazil.

Mr. Aitken

The Brazilian Government have recently announced their decision to place a £150 million order with Westland for nine Super Lynx helicopters and extensive Lynx upgrade work. This is an important success for the United Kingdom in a market where we have a long tradition of supplying defence equipment.
