Summary

Nutrition label

76% Informative

The Ministry of Defence has issued a Request for Information ( RFI ) seeking insights from the defence industry.

The Royal Navy is exploring the use of nuclear power for its surface ships.

The MOD is particularly interested in understanding the technical feasibility of integrating nuclear power into existing and future naval vessels.

The deadline for responses to this RFI is October 8 , 22:59:59.

The UK has never operated a nuclear-powered surface ship.

The Ministry of Defence is seeking input from the defence industry to explore nuclear power.

The move could allow ships to operate for longer periods, reduce their reliance on fuel supplies, and potentially transform how the Royal Navy operates at sea.
