Lord West of Spithead

To ask Her Majesty's Government how long they anticipate it will take BAE Systems to build a Type 26 frigate; and what assessment they have made of that timescale.
Earl Howe
The Minister of State, Ministry of Defence, Deputy Leader of the House of Lords
The first ship, HMS GLASGOW, is expected to be structurally complete in the early 2020s. This timescale is consistent with the engineering challenge of building the First of Class of a modern complex warship.
