Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether he plans to hold an industry day for potential bidders interested in his Department's programme to replace the RAF's current fleet of Boeing E-3D Sentry Airborne Warning and Control Systems aircraft.
The Strategic Defence and Security Review 2015 recognised the need to invest in and sustain the RAF's Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) capability to at least 2035. As yet the procurement strategy has not been determined.
