I wonder how much is being done by MoD/ Individual Services to look at other countries to see how they tackle balanced recruiting. Looking at the USAF (Inc Space Force) (2021 statistics) they seem to be have been good at recruiting black enlisted females and Asian female officers but not so good at recruiting black male officers.

Active Service Personnel

Female (50.5% of US population)
  • All 21.3%
  • OF 22.6%
  • OR 20.9%
Black/African American (excluding multi-racial) (13.6% of US population)
  • All 14.8%
  • Female 21.0%
  • Male 13.1%
  • OF 6.2%
    • Female 10.6%
    • Male 5.0%
  • OR 16.9%
    • Female 23.7%
    • Male 15.1%
Asian (excluding multi-racial includes Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi, Chinese, Japanese, Philippino, SEA etc) (6.1% of US population)
  • All 4.4%
  • Female 5.1%
  • Male 4.2%
  • OF 5.5%
    • Female 7.0%
    • Male 5.1%
  • OR 4.2%
    • Female 4.6%
    • Male 4.0%
