If you are looking for life insurance for armed forces, finding the right cover can be more complicated than it is for people in standard occupations. Your role, duties, deployment status and level of risk can all influence how insurers assess your application.
At Sports Financial Services, we specialise in helping people with hazardous occupations secure suitable life insurance, critical illness cover and other forms of financial protection. We understand the unique challenges faced by members of the British Army, Royal Navy, Royal Marines, Royal Air Force and Reservists, and can help you compare options from insurers that are comfortable covering military personnel.
Whether you want to protect your family, cover your mortgage or provide financial security for your loved ones, our advisers can help you find cover that suits your circumstances.
Specialist insurance for military personnel
Military occupations can vary significantly in terms of risk. While some roles are largely office-based, others may involve active deployment, specialist training, hazardous duties or operational service overseas.
As a result, some insurers may ask additional questions during the application process, while others may apply special terms or restrictions depending on your role.

We regularly help:
- British Army personnel
- Royal Navy personnel
- Royal Marines
- Royal Air Force personnel
- Reservists
- Territorial Army personnel

Military life insurance
Life insurance can provide a lump sum payment to your beneficiaries if you pass away during the policy term. Many members of the Armed Forces choose life insurance to help protect their family’s financial future, repay a mortgage or provide ongoing financial support for dependants.
The amount of cover available and the premium charged will depend on your personal circumstances and military role. In many cases, military personnel can still obtain cover on standard terms, while some higher-risk roles may attract additional underwriting requirements.
Types of cover available
Life insurance
Life insurance provides a lump sum payment if you die during the policy term. This can help your family manage ongoing financial commitments and maintain financial stability.
Mortgage protection
Mortgage protection is designed to help repay an outstanding mortgage balance should you pass away during the policy term. This can help ensure that your family can remain in their home without the burden of mortgage repayments.
Critical illness cover
Critical illness cover can pay a lump sum if you are diagnosed with a specified serious illness covered by the policy. Cover availability and underwriting requirements may vary depending on your military role and duties.
Serious illness cover
Some providers offer serious illness cover, which may provide broader protection depending on the policy selected. Our advisers can explain the differences and help you determine whether this type of cover is suitable for your needs.
