TYPHOON

Motion Text

That this House notes that the Typhoon aircraft will provide the backbone of United Kingdom and other nations' air capability for the coming years; recognises the Typhoon's varied capability and its strong export potential; further notes that as yet the Ministry of Defence refuses to consider the possibility of looking to adapt the Typhoon to be deployed in the new super carriers; and calls on the Ministry of Defence to work with BAE Systems to develop a programme which will enable the Typhoon to be deployed from aircraft carriers enhancing its capability and export potential.
