Summary/Abstract |
The UK defence economy has some distinctive features. Its Armed Forces have a worldwide capability reflected in modern air, land and sea forces with an expeditionary role. Its world role is further reflected in a nuclear capability and a high technology defence industrial base, substantial defence R&D with the UK as a major arms exporter. This survey focuses on the period 1970 to 2008. It explains the military-industrial complex and estimates a demand for military expenditure function. There follows an analysis of procurement and defence industrial policy. Future policy issues are outlined, namely, the costs of the UK's world role and its relations with European defence policy. It is concluded that the UK faces some difficult defence choices.

Summary/Abstract |
To manage their assets at an enterprise level, defense organizations have turned to portfolio theory for the planning, analysis and management of their military forces and materiel. Despite being well established in the commercial sector, the application of portfolio approaches in defense is problematic. The vexatious question for defense of how to define and measure benefits arising is complicated by the increased utility and effectiveness achieved through networking of military forces and the equipment they use. The authors discuss the challenges for defense in using a portfolio approach and propose a conceptual model for dealing with the effects arising from networking with information and communications technologies.

Summary/Abstract |
Simply put persistent lower level reconnaissance mimics the role of sentry or look out, watching an area of terrain around him for enemy movement, distinguishing friend from foe as well as the movement of local flora and fauna. The terrain might be part of a border system with the sentry acting in both deterrent as well as surveillance, a covert role son not wanting to be seen for a variety of reasons: or to provide temporary security on a route march or patrol or more a sedentary occupation securing a airbase or other key facility. While the sentry will remain in loop, their frontline role is either much reduced or eliminated, substituted for by the use of technology. While there are shortcoming with any such changes the range of technologies now used are increasingly reliable, can operate in all weathers, day or night at long distances with their range limited only by terrain and the curvature of the earth
