∙ 11y agoThe UK Armed Forces comprise 3 Services:
1) The Royal Navy ("The Senior Service"), which also includes the Corps of Royal Marines, and the Royal Fleet Auxiliary Service - specialist logistical support ships crewed by Merchant Navy sailors, but functioning as part of the "Naval Service". There is also a small Royal Navy Reserve force. The "Naval Service" is about 50,000 strong - Royal Navy (35,000); Royal Marines (7,500); the rest made up by RFA & Naval Reserves.
2) The British Army, which includes the Regular Army (a little over 100,000 troops), the Territorial Army Reserve (about 35,000 part-time troops - similar to the US National Guard), and the Army Reserve comprising most who have recently left Regular Service and who remain liable for recall in an emergency for up to 10 years after leaving the Regular Army: approx 100,000 available at any given time, but most, realistically, would require a couple of months "retraining" before being deployable!
3) The Royal Air Force, plus a small RAF Reserve - about 45,000 in total.
The UK Coast Guard is not a military force - its main roles are observing and recording activities along Coastlines and in UK territorial waters, and coordination of air and sea rescue services.
The Secret Intelligence and Security Services (and GCHQ) are Government agencies (technically part of the Civil Service), and although they often work closely with the Armed Forces, they are not military services per se.
