This question was answered on 16th June 2025
The Marine Society and Sea Cadets (MSSC) is an independent charity responsible for the Sea Cadets and therefore operates in a different but albeit collaborative manner from the other Royal Navy Cadet Forces. The MSSC is formally sponsored by the Ministry of Defence via a Grant in Aid from the Royal Navy. Therefore, the equipment provided for Sea Cadets is a matter for MSSC to best determine within extant resources.
