Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether his Department plans to increase the number of Sky Sabre air defence missile systems in service.
A doubling of the number of deployable Sky Sabre systems operated by the Armed Forces is already on contract and due to deliver by 2027.
Sky Sabre represents a step change in the UK’s ground-based air defence capability. As the Army’s most advanced air defence system, it provides a powerful shield against modern airborne threats, from fast jets to precision-guided weapons and drones.
