The 1984 Whitepaper (yes, it's damned old) obligate us to support Coalition operation in supplying a sqdrn within 10 days and a full wing within 30. The Whitepaper defines our defence as an Allied Defence. Let's face it, anyone hitting the UK or the US is going to hurt us economically and being small in size means that we would have to take the fight to the enemy to prevent attacks on our allies.
