Abstract

British efforts to work with the US military post-Cold War have focused upon major war-fighting capabilities. These have been the most-demanding of tasks and have led the British to maintain forces for all sorts of contingencies. In order to be affordable, UK armed forces have adopted less technologically sophisticated solutions than those of the US. The ability of the UK to fight alongside the US has been tested in major conflicts against Iraq in 1990–1991 and 2003, as well as in Afghanistan. The challenge of being America’s partner of choice has placed a heavy burden upon the UK’s military.
