Joint Force 2025 is defined in the 2015 Strategic Defence and Security Review. There is no prescribed minimum number of personnel or platforms required to deliver the outputs that this force is designed to achieve.

Our Armed Forces are fulfilling all their commitments across the globe, and this Government will ensure that they can continue to do so.
