The war in Ukraine has become a ‘battle lab’ for the United Kingdom’s military technology and effectiveness, according to the British Secretary of State for Defence, Ben Wallace, who warned this week: “[w]e would be very foolish to ignore these lessons and not import them into our own armed forces.”
