This book has both empirical and analytic innovative components.
This books thesis is that military-industrial relations in Britain
in the 1950's have had an influence on civil-military relations and
foreign policy in Britain in the 1980's. Influence is defined as
the set of consequences of military-industrial relations in
successfully implementing two Cabinet defined goals. These were the
goal for the rationalization of the airframe and aero-engine
sectors of the defense-industries and the goal for trans-national
collaborative weapons procurement with NATO allies. The influence
of military-industrial relations is viewed through the process of
weapons procurement of a Royal Air Force replacement of the
Canberra bomber through the TSR.2 Jaguar and Tornado aircraft. The
empirical innovative component is in the discovery of new
information to show this military-industrial influence. Previously
unused industrial and government sources were consulted and are
quoted. This information is presented in eight Chapters
chronologically from 1951 to 1989. The analytic innovative
component is in the Conclusions of the book deductively from the
empirical evidence. In proving the military-industrial influence
empirically, existing notions and theories on military-industrial
relations and civil-military relations are overturned.
