If war breaks out between the United Kingdom and East Africa, it would naturally manifest on both naval and land fronts. Among the major powers of the world, the British Army is considered the weakest, so any conflict between the two nations would inevitably focus on naval warfare.
On the surface, the British Royal Navy is far superior to East Africa. The Royal Navy's strength is five times that of East Africa, with a total tonnage of around a staggering two million tons, whereas the total tonnage of the East African Navy has just surpassed four hundred thousand tons.
Currently, by total tonnage, the East African Navy ranks sixth in the world, following the order: UK, US, Germany, France, Japan, and East Africa.
