Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what the value of British defence exports to sub Saharan Africa was in each of the last three years.

The Government does not publish data detailing the value of defence exports by individual country.

However, the estimated total of UK defence exports (based on orders/contracts signed) to Africa as a whole in each of the last three years is shown in the table below.

The data is taken from the Department for International Trade’s Defence and Security Organisation (DIT DSO) official statistics which are released annually on the Gov.UK website here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics?departments%5B%5D=department-for-international-trade-defence-and-security-organisation.
