Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, for what reason the Government has reduced the number of Sentinel surveillance aircraft; and if he will make a statement.
This question was answered on 10th July 2017
The original service date for the Sentinel fleet has been extended from 2018 to 2021. This will be achieved by careful fleet management practices, including the removal of one Sentinel from front line service with effect from 1 April 2017.
