On a trip to Poland, the prime minister said the extra billions will put Britain's defence industry "on a war footing" - and Nato members cannot expect the US alone to foot the bill for defending the West.
He also announced an extra half a billion pounds of military aid for Ukraine - as well as boats, vehicles, missiles and ammunition.
