- Construction on three new dreadnoughts, HMS Waterloo, HMS Plassey and HMS Trafalgar, begins. These new dreadnoughts will travel to the Far East to reinforce the naval garrison at Hong Kong once built.

- The Royal Air Force is established, comprised of recon planes and very basic bombers. There is a high death rate in taking off and landing, and military command expresses scepticism.

- Several locations are designated to become British military strongholds: Newfoundland, Hong Kong, Malta, Gibraltar, Suez, and Oman.

- Discomfort in the British government over the dethroning of the Swedish royalty. A special commission is formed to counter growing support for communism and anti-monarchism.
