- UKG released the Strategic Defence Review on Monday:
- Move to warfighting readiness
- ‘New Hybrid Navy’: Dreadnought and SSN-AUKUS submarines, cutting-edge warships and support ships, transformed aircraft carriers, and new autonomous vessels.
- 10x more lethal British Army: armoured capability, AI, software, long-range weapons, and land drone swarms—and aim to increase full-time troops to at least 76,000 into the next Parliament.
- Next-generation RAF: F-35s, upgraded Typhoons, next-generation fast jets through GCAP, and autonomous fighters.
- Sovereign warhead programme: £15bn this Parliament, supporting 9,000+ jobs.
- Homeland air and missile defence: up to £1bn new funding.
- New CyberEM Command: defending Britain from daily attacks in the grey zone.
- Engine for growth
- Munitions: £6bn this Parliament— including £1.5bn in an ‘always on’ pipeline and at least 6 new munitions and energetics factories in the UK, creating 1,000+ jobs.
- Continuous submarine production: up to 12 conventionally armed, nuclear-powered attack submarines through the AUKUS programme.
- UK Defence Innovation: £400m to invest in UK-based companies.
- New Defence Exports Office: driving exports to our allies and growth at home.
- NATO First
- First European hybrid airwings: Transforming our aircraft carriers, combining fast jets, long-range weapons, and drones.
- First European laser directed energy weapon in service: through nearly £1bn of new funding.
- Greater European deterrence: up to 7,000 new long-range weapons and supporting around 800 jobs in the UK.
- UK Innovation driven by Ukraine experience
- World-leading innovation in autonomy: doubling investment in autonomous systems this Parliament to boost UK export potential.
- New Digital Targeting Web in 2027: up to £1bn for the digital integration of our Armed Forces.
- New ‘Drone Centre’: accelerating the use of autonomous systems across our Armed Forces.
- Whole of society approach
- Renewal of military accommodation: at least £7bn this Parliament, with £1.5bn+ new investment to fix forces family housing.
- More opportunities for young people: delivering a 30% increase in cadets by 2030 and introducing a voluntary ‘Gap Year’ scheme.
- Whole-of-society approach: A new UK Strategic Reserve by 2030 and the Navy taking a leading role in protecting undersea infrastructure.
- New Defence Readiness Bill: legislating to improve national preparedness.
- SofS made a statement to the House in which he said that:
- The SDR is UKG’s plan to seize the defence dividend from the record increase in defence investment to create jobs.
- Geopolitics are more serious and less predictable than at any time since the Cold War.
- Our adversaries are working more in alliance with one another.
- A new era of threat must demand a new era for UK defence.
- UKG have overseen the largest sustained increase in defence spending since the end of the Cold War.
- There cannot be investment without reform – the reforms enacted over the last year will ensure clearer responsibilities and new efficiencies worth £6bn in this Parliament.
- The country must move to warfighting readiness and so it needs stronger deterrence.
- A country’s armed forces are only as strong as industry that stands behind it.
- UKG will make defence an engine for growth to create jobs and increase prosperity in every nation and region.
- More communities and more working people will benefit from the defence dividend.
- A Defence investment Plan will supersede the Equipment Plan and be published in the Autumn. It will be deliverable, affordable, consider infrastructure alongside capabilities, and seize opportunities to grow the British economy.
- Move to warfighting readiness
- SDR Key Points on Shipbuilding:
- An ‘always on’ supply line for shipbuilding is essential to retain industry skills and reduce the delays in delivering new ships that otherwise lead to additional support costs for ‘running on’ ageing platforms.
- Long-term partnering agreements with funding commitments over multiple years or decades, such as those underpinning the delivery of SSN-AUKUS, would help to realise efficiencies and de-risk major investments while also contributing to UK economic growth.
- More flexible regulation is also needed to support vital experimentation in areas such as autonomy, including through the creation of regulatory ‘sandboxes’—designated areas at sea in which the Navy and industry can test and deploy new technologies.
