Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 26 November 2025 to Question 87832 on RAF Brize Norton: Palestine Action, what was the cost of returning the two damaged aero engines to a serviceable condition.

Whilst the engines damaged on 20 June 2025 have since been inspected and returned into service, their reduced cleared life will necessitate a significant overhaul within the next two years.

The full financial impact of the incident will not be known until that overhaul is complete and it is known which parts will need to be replaced.
