Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what assessment he has made of the effectiveness of the deployment of Peregrine on HMS Lancaster.
The performance of the Peregrine system has been continuously monitored since it was deployed on HMS Lancaster, and it continues to be assessed. There is a significant focus on improving integration and maximising performance as the crew's operating experience of the Peregrine system grows.
The Royal Navy's transition to uncrewed systems is expected to be addressed in the Strategic Defence Review.
