To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what plans there are to refit the Nimrod MR2 R1 aircraft's wing fuel tanks with foam to prevent explosions.

Adam Ingram (Minister of State (Armed Forces), Ministry of Defence) | Hansard source

We keep under review the requirement for defensive aids, including explosion suppressant foam, in all our aircraft deployed on operations including the Nimrod MR2 and R1 aircraft.

In other words, no, then.

Think we might need to ask that one again when the BoI gets published.
