If were already there with NATO why do we need JEF too ?

Why have NORAD as well? Or FVEYs?

I would say then, Why did the UK create JEF then?

I would imagine that the JEF will be much akin to the AMF(L) or ARRC committments, which we have made in the past. Both provided a mission thread and theatre to focus training and commitments. I was part of AMF(L) in 3 VP, and part of the Lead Mechanised Battlegroup of the ARRC in 1 RGJ. 1st Can Div HQ frequently trained with the ARRC.

Because after Brexit, they were no longer welcome in EU formations such as the EuroCorps. This gets them bacj in the "Defence of the EU" game, and tied to a specific strategic problem
