The (very) Late, Great, UK Defence Review!

Well, here we are, how long since this "review" started? Today Philip Hammond delivered the UK Autumn Budget. An interesting statement but, for UK Mil an extra £1Bn to go with a similar amount earlier in the year. Obfuscation IMO, with mention of Dreadnought costs blah. Not to be deceived, I venture that, there are real heavyweight battles being fought. Apparently, the battle will have been lost by next Summer? I wonder if some serious changes to come were just too painful a Nettle to grasp as we approach Armistice 100?
Please add your insights.
