Is the UK military truly prepared for the challenges of modern warfare? Fighting Strength is a deep-dive podcast examining the state of the UK Armed Forces—their capabilities, shortfalls, and the urgent reforms needed to ensure they remain a credible fighting force.

From stockpile shortages and recruitment crises to gaps in critical equipment and overtasked forces, this podcast explores the pressing issues shaping Britain’s defense posture. We break down operational, warfighting, and strategic readiness, analyzing the policies, funding, and industrial challenges that determine the UK’s ability to fight a high-intensity war.

Through expert interviews, in-depth research, and historical context, Fighting Strength uncovers the hard truths behind military readiness and what must change to secure the nation’s defense in an era of global instability.

Join us as we investigate whether the UK Armed Forces are battle-ready—or if they are running on empty.
