Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what capacity exists in the UK armed forces to (a) use and (b) deploy Joint Precision Airdrop Systems.
The United Kingdom Armed Forces does not currently have a Joint Precision Airdrop Systems (JPADS) capability which could be used or deployed. However, we recognise the benefits of the system and are currently investigating options to bring JPADS into service.
