Rising Profits in the Global Defense Industry
The global defense industry is poised to experience unprecedented financial growth, with major aerospace and defense contractors expected to accumulate approximately $52 billion by 2026. This surge in revenue is driven by heightened geopolitical tensions, prompting governments to place significant orders for weapons.
