A Falklands test would have been a sensible one for the Defence Review but it was not chosen. The ability to send a credible fighting force to a distant part of the world is essentially what the military has had to do on a number of different occasions - Falklands, Sierra Leone, Kosovo, Gulf War I & II, Afghanistan. However, this is not the direction which it went perhaps because it would have failed it?
