HC Deb 23 January 2003 vol 398 c453W
Mr. Jenkin

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence when Storm Shadow will enter service with the RAF. [91034]

Mr. Ingram

Due to technical problems experienced in the development of Storm Shadow we are reviewing the programme's timescales with MBDA.

We are working hard with MBDA to ensure that the RAF gets this important capability into service as soon as possible, while not jeopardising the long-term performance of the system.
