Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the expected lifespan is of the Sea Ceptor Anti-Air Missile System.
This question was answered on 15th September 2016
The Sea Ceptor system is currently being fitted to the Royal Navy's Type 23 Frigates as the principal anti-air missile system and will also be fitted to the Royal Navy's future Type 26 Frigates as they enter service. The capability will remain in service for over 40 years to align with the out of service date for the Type 26 Frigate.
