Mr. Gerald Howarth: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what impact the withdrawal of the Sea Harrier FA2 will have on the
Royal Navy's ability to defend its ships against an attack from the AS17/Krypton anti- ship missile; and if he will make a
statement. [86440]
Dr. Moonie: Royal Navy Task Groups will retain a significant air defence capability after the Sea Harrier is withdrawn from service
in 2006, including against AS17/Krypton anti ship missiles. Task Groups typically include Type 42 Anti Air Warfare Destroyers armed
with updated Sea Dart anti-aircraft missiles, Type 22 and 23 Frigates armed with Point Defence Missile Systems (including the
enhanced Sea Wolf missile system) and Close in Weapons Systems. Many other Task Group warships will also include air defence assets
for self protection and decoy systems against air and surface launched anti-ship missiles.
The upgraded Sea King airborne early warning aircraft has now entered service providing an improved detection capability over land
and sea. Additionally, from late 2007 onwards the Type 42 Destroyers will be replaced by the Type 45 Destroyers, fitted with the
highly capable Principal Anti-Air Missile System (PAAMS).
