Extended Range Ordnance (Hansard, 19 October 1995)

HC Deb 19 October 1995 vol 264 c358W 358W

§ Dr. David Clark
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what are the projected in-service dates of the 155 mm/52 calibre extended range ordnance and the modular charge system for the AS90. [37790]

§ Mr. Arbuthnot
On present plans we expect the first AS90 howitzers to be converted to extended range ordnance with modular charge system by the turn of the century, which would be consistent with the current in-service dates.
