Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many Royal Air Force Poseidon P-8 aircraft have not been airworthy for more than 12 months.
This question was answered on 20th October 2025
There have been 2 occasions when a Poseidon MRA1 has not flown for more than 12 months due to maintenance:
· ZP804 - 06/03/2024 to 04/09/2025
· ZP807 - 12/07/2023 to 13/09/2024
This was mitigated through routine fleet management and maintenance planning frameworks.
