Summary/Abstract |
Developments within the UK in the Ministry of Defence's policy on defence equipment acquisition demand changes in the scale and allocation of the Ministry's budget for defence research. To facilitate the national debate on those changes, this paper reviews the key questions about UK defence research which the Ministry must resolve in order to implement its new Defence Technology Strategy.

Summary/Abstract |
This paper describes ten recurring problems which afflict the Ministry of Defence's acquisition of complex defence equipment. These problems are manifest in the notorious cost overruns and delays which beset such projects. Some of the problems arise because the projects are large and complex, and perforce must incorporate leading-edge technologies, and because of the diverse cultures of the personnel needed to manage the acquisition process. Others arise from the special (and widely misunderstood) characteristics of defence acquisition, and from the multiple interfaces between the operating services and industrial suppliers in the UK and in other nations. Since diagnosis is useful only if it is accompanied by relevant treatment, the authors propose appropriate remedial action for each of the ten problems they have identified

Summary/Abstract |
Any national government's policy on defence equipment acquisition must
reflect development in the nation's military, technological and industrial
environment. Recent changes to the external threats to the national security
and vital interests of the United Kingdom (UK) and its allies, and the ongoing
consolidation of the global defence industry, have required the UK's
Ministry of Defence (MOD) to adopt a new defence industrial strategy.
This new strategy involves long-term partnerships with selected onshore
contractors to sustain within these contractors a chosen subset of the UK's
traditional capabilities for the development, manufacture, support andupgrade of defence equipment. But this new strategy must overcome
several challenges before it can be implemented effectively.
