The reconfiguration of the Armed Forces envisaged in the 2010 Strategic Defence and Security Review has raised questions about the United Kingdom’s ability to defend the Falkland Islands. Of particular concern is the loss of a carrier strike capability for the next decade. The UK government is committed to supporting the Falkland Islanders right to self-determination. British forces are based in the Falklands to deter any military aggression against the South Atlantic Overseas Territories. They include air defence assets, maritime patrol capability and infantry, along with regular naval deployments. Despite the recent rise in tensions with Argentina over the Falklands, Jane’s assesses the risk of a return to military conflict as remote.
