Tornado F3 Mr. Soames asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement on the efficiency and effectiveness of the Tornado F3 fighter. Mr. Archie Hamilton The excellent range and loiter capability of the Tornado air defence variant make it ideally suited for the role of air defence of the United Kingdom. Although the Tornado ADV's Foxhunter radar does not yet meet all the requirements of the Royal Air Force, action is in hand to rectify this. Radars to an interim standard have already been delivered. Mr. Soames asked the Secretary of State for Defence what representations he has received about Royal Air Force air defence capability. Mr Stanley The only representation received recently is a letter from my hon. Friend.
