Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the significance of interoperability with Royal Australian Air Force in respect of the E-7A Wedgetail.
This question was answered on 11th July 2022
Australia has deep historic ties to both the UK and the RAF and a close intelligence sharing relationship as part of the Five Eyes partnership.
RAF personnel are already training alongside their Royal Australian Air Force E-7 colleagues, benefitting from our close ally's experience with the aircraft prior to its introduction into UK service.
