Labour (Co-op) — Plymouth Sutton and Devonport

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 January 2026

Debate

New Medium Helicopter Contract

Contribution

The hon. Gentleman and I have had a number of conversations about Aldergrove, and I suspect we will continue to do so. It is important that, as part of the defence investment plan, we continue to maintain lift capabilities across our armed forces. That will include a mix of crewed and uncrewed, and will lead into autonomous systems, as will be laid out in the defence investment plan when it is published shortly.
