Britain was pretty much self sufficient with regard to
infantry weapons and artillery but relied heavily on
US supplied tanks , trucks and armoured cars.

The air force relied totally on US production for its
transport aircraft , a large percentage of its long range
maritime patrol aircraft and the RN was reliant on US
produced fighters on its carrier force


Yes. I know. The RAF also acquired a fair number of US fighters.
