§ Mr. FoulkesTo ask the Secretary of State for Defence which weapons ranges will be used for test, practice and exercise firing of the Royal Navy's Tomahawk missiles. [5168]
§ Mr. SoamesDue to the long range of Tomahawk and the infrastructure required to support Tomahawk missiles firings, the current intention is that test, practice and exercise firings of the Royal Navy's Tomahawk missiles will be conducted on US Tomahawk ranges. The US has ranges on both the west and east coasts of the USA.
