Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to his Oral Statement of 1 September on Ukraine, Official Report columns 93-94, how many of the 30 vehicles and engineering equipment delivered to Ukraine were manufactured in the UK.
Where the UK’s manufacturing industry can meet Ukraine’s vehicle and engineering equipment requirements, the Ministry of Defence sources from UK industry.
The UK’s military support to Ukraine is based upon Ukraine’s needs, prioritising speed of delivery for equipment.
For operational security reasons we are unable to give a breakdown of exactly how many have been manufactured in the UK.
