Defence Merger - 27th January 2003, 23.14

British Aerospace denied rumours that it would merge with Boeing in the short term. However, the roles of the British defence industry and the British Army as semi-integrated parts of the American military complex suggest that such a union will occur in the not too distant future.

Is there an independent British defence industry any longer? No, but Britain does gain access to better military technology than its European rivals. Howver, this leaves us vulnerable to developments in US policy.
