Ministry of Defence written question – answered at on 28 June 2016.
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what proportion of the P-8 Poseidon programme is covered by the US International Traffic in Arms Regulations.
It is intended that the Boeing P-8 Poseidon aircraft will be purchased through a Foreign Military Sales (FMS) agreement with the US Government, which allows us to get the capability we need within the required timeline. No assessment has yet been undertaken as to which parts of the aircraft or the associated support solution are covered by the US International Traffic in Arms Regulations, although all such considerations will form part of the terms of the FMS case.
