Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether any additional defence contracts have been awarded for the procurement of anti-tank weapons for delivery to Ukraine.

No additional defence contracts have been awarded for the procurement of anti-tank weapons to Ukraine. The anti-tank weapons donated to Ukrainian Armed Forces have been taken from existing UK stocks.

We have now delivered 3,615 NLAWs (Next-Generation Light Anti-Tank Weapons Systems) and will shortly be starting the delivery of a small consignment of anti-tank javelin missiles as well.

We maintain the right to deliver bilateral support, including lethal and non-lethal defensive equipment, to a sovereign nation when requested in areas that will better help them defend themselves. We will continue to do that.
