Air Force: Women
Asked by: Baroness Goldie (Conservative - Life peer) Monday 16th June 2025 Question to the Ministry of Defence: To ask His Majesty's Government what progress has been made by the Royal Air Force in redesigning uniform and any relevant body or safety protection apparel to fit the anatomy of women. Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence) The Royal Air Force has made significant progress in redesigning uniform and safety protection apparel for the female anatomy.
These include improvements to uniform fitting and size ranges, allowances for provision of sports bras, re-issue of uniform post pregnancy and menopause, and better fitting body armour. Research and development of a female specific flying suit and immersion protection garment is ongoing.

Navy: Women
Asked by: Baroness Goldie (Conservative - Life peer) Monday 16th June 2025 Question to the Ministry of Defence: To ask His Majesty's Government what progress has been made by the Royal Navy in redesigning uniform and any relevant body or safety protection apparel to fit the anatomy of women. Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence) The Royal Navy daily working uniform for Service Women (Rig 22) is currently in the procurement phase. To alleviate any issues during this time, Service personnel have been recommended to utilise the Special Fit clause in current regulations to allow Crown Expense tailoring where current sizes don’t quite fit adequately.
The Rig 22 thermal layer includes a female fit, with both jackets having been very well received during trials. A full maternity variant of Rig 22 is in the procurement phase, while a maternity outwear layer is already available.
The Royal Navy is also seeking to improve the current in-service base-layer for both warm weather, temperate and cold weather climates. This project will include such considerations as Public Sector Equality Duty, ensuring a better fit for all, as well as improving comfort/interoperability with the Rig 22 layering system. |

Army: Women
Asked by: Baroness Goldie (Conservative - Life peer) Monday 16th June 2025 Question to the Ministry of Defence: To ask His Majesty's Government what progress has been made by the British Army in redesigning uniform and body protection apparel to fit the anatomy of women. Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence) Over recent years, the Army has undertaken significant work to improve the daily experience for servicewomen by providing more suitable uniform and body armour. Examples include the implementation of a professional sports bra ‘fit and issue’ service, the introduction of an improved fit for the Multi-Terrain Pattern Barrack Shirt and the provision of female-fitting combat footwear. The Army will continue to scope further opportunities to develop the suitability of uniform for servicewomen.
For the body armour aspect of the question, I refer the noble Baroness to the reply given by my hon. Friend, the Minister for Defence Procurement and Industry (Ms Eagle), in the House of Commons on 29 April 2025 to the hon. Member for Swindon North (Mr Stone) in response to Question 49080.
