Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what proportion of (a) Royal Navy, (b) British Army, and (c) RAF personnel are in frontline roles.
This question was answered on 24th July 2025
The Royal Navy, Army and Royal Air Force do not have a definition for ‘frontline roles’ and the figures below therefore reflect the current Full-Time Trained Strength:
Royal Navy/Royal Marines – 28,040
Army – 70,860
Royal Air Force – 27,710
