Com esse objetivo, diversas coleções documentais dos National Archives do Reino Unido foram consultadas, entre os quais se destaca o War Cabinet e a série do Joint Planning Staff. Entre suas principais conclusões se destacarem a evolução da situação estratégica e a não beligerância espanhola como os principais fatores que impulsionaram este planejamento militar, que limita ou qualifica tanto a tradicional aliança angloportuguesa como a reaproximação entre os regimes de Salazar e Franco.
