摘要

With a £12 billion ($18 billion) uptick in the country's defense equipment spending to £178 billion over the next 10 years, ministers have pledged to boost the number of Royal Air Force (RAF) frontline fighter squadrons and to deliver a long-awaited commitment to buy every one of its planned 138 Lockheed Martin F-35 Joint Strike Fighters. Yet while the Strategic Defense and Security Review (SDSR) published on Nov. 23 appears to be good news, the government's pledges appear to do little more than paper over gaping cracks in military aircraft capabilities left by previous reviews. While the purchase of nine Boeing P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft will help to protect its new aircraft carriers and the new-generation submarine-based nuclear deterrent, that still merely fills the gap left by the retirement of the Nimrod MR2 and cancellation of its replacement, the Nimrod MRA4, during the last SDSR in 2010.
