Dependant, If you can pass the fitness test then Yes, If you cant then No.
Although that being said you CANNOT join the Submarine service with asthma as its a hazards and due to health risks.

I know for the army you have to be 4 years clear of any medical equipment or substances to join, but they still carry out their own tests later in the application process.. the raf are a lot stricter on the medical side of things though.

You need to go to the nearest navy office and they will help you from there you will take a physical which will determine if you can go in. It's all that easy getting in. I had friends that had 2% more fat then why they allow and he was unable to go. Ask people who are in the navy what they do and then you'll have an idea if your asthma will interfere.

engineering may be a moderately stressful career, but i don't see it triggering an asthma attack. especially if you are able to control it rather well. just remember one thing... don't let ANY disability keep you from doing the things you enjoy. my wife, who has spina bifida and is, therefore, paraplegic, is currently working a 40 hour a week job that actually pays well above minimum wage. and she is making progress faster than most of the people in her group!!

First, learn how to slow down and spell check. That being said...
I spent a few years in the Navy, and loved every minute of it! But I don't think they allow people w/ asthma. Sorry.
PLEASE check with your local recruiting office, because I am not 100% sure about that. Good luck!

My friends brother went into the US Army with asthma and they usually don't let you in if you have it. But because he was only being a Light-Wheeled Vehicle mechanic they changed the asthma title to "Chronic Bronchitis", and they let him right in.

The ARMY has easier enlistment requirements. If you're not dependant on an inhaler daily- you can usually get in.
