The United Kingdom will buy 12 U.S.-made F-35A fighter jets capable of carrying nuclear bombs and will join NATO’s shared airborne nuclear mission, in a major expansion of its nuclear deterrent, Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced Wednesday.
The government called it “the biggest strengthening of the U.K.’s nuclear posture in a generation.”
Starmer made the announcement while attending a NATO summit in the Netherlands. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte welcomed the decision, calling it “yet another robust British contribution to NATO.”
The U.K. phased out air-dropped atomic weapons in the 1990s after the end of the Cold War. Its nuclear arsenal now consists of submarine-based missiles.
Only three NATO members – the U.S., Britain and France – are nuclear powers, while seven nations contribute to the alliance’s nuclear mission by contributing jets that can carry either conventional or weapons or American B61 bombs stockpiled in Europe.

Why is this such a big deal? An F-5 could carry a single B61 in the 1980s. Hell every F-15, F-16, and Britain’s Eurofighters can too. AP is stupid.
Makes sense. Its time for Europe to start taking care of themselves. The UK is already a nuclear power but that’s not a deterrent if their nuclear arsenal isn’t deliverable.
Which will be used to bomb the house of any British citizen who forwards a meme on social media that is critical of Islam or the Labour government.
Imwoouldnt sell them these. They are socialist now, and will be muslim in the near future.
The Limeys will pay for the jets by selling underage working class British Girls to the Islamist Grooming Gangs throughout the UK, so the Brit Aristocracy can keep their family fortunes intact.
so the Islamic Republic of London can nuke the West?
“Why is this such a big deal?”
Nobody has shown the ability to stop the F-35.
It appears it can strike anywhere at will.
(so the Islamic Republic of London can nuke the West?)
Or Israel 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
And Britain will actually pay for it with their own money.
Unlike Ukraine or Israel.
With the proper supporting assets in place, yes, the F-35 is an impressive raider.
?
Britain will spend some of the money the U.S. taxpayer gives them every year.
Wouldn’t lorries be better for where they’d need to use one?
This.
Yes, Ukraine and Israel are currently biggest free loaders from US.
Wow Sweden has the most Muslims!
Oh, great! Another muslim nation with nukes to deal with.
Highest percentage at least
The UK is quickly transitioning to an Islamic dominant population and the English government was complicit in the 2020 US presidential election steal. Selling them F-35s is a really bad and stupid idea.
