There are two pictures of each building, the second revealing a bit more than the first, and the third picture reveals the building completely. Award yourself 10 points if you guess the building from the first picture and five if you need the second.

The score is just for your own fun.

Good luck!

Defence review at a glance

• Increase defence spending to 2.5% of GDP by 2027 but given “turbulent times it may be necessary to go faster”

• Prioritise a shift towards working with AI and autonomous systems

• Invest in the resilience of military space systems.

• Number of active reserves should be increased by 20%

• More F-35 fighter jets required in the next decade

• New “hybrid Navy” with AUKUS submarines and autonomous vessels
