Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what will the split of crewed and uncrewed Naval assets be by 2030.

Answer

The Royal Navy is rapidly adopting a Hybrid Navy approach and already operates dozens of uncrewed platforms across a range of roles. Uncrewed systems will increasingly complement crewed ships and submarines as laid out in the Defence Investment Plan.
