    Sure they are.

    You already answered the question. But they lack the geography and resources that make the real super-powers these days, like USA, Russia, China. (yes Russia)

    Not only is the UK a military power due to their equipment, but their troops are top notch as well. Glad they are allies!!

    Well we Americans know they have Nukes also.
    My answer is if Scotland becomes independent England will lose some brave warriors, and some of its military strength.

    yea we’ve got a pretty lethal army but we are to spread out.
    we have troops in nearly every country fighting wars for other people.
    if we regroup we will be a supreme fighting force

    Our friends the Brits are among the best of the best in terms of military power. It’s the civilian leadership that should give one pause…

    Yes because they are a member of the G8 and still have the most professional military in the world.
