The report provides comprehensive insights into the overall, near term Strategy Focus and Key Strategies & Plans for AM General LLC against the backdrop of an evolving industry landscape & shifting global dynamics with significantly rising technological capabilities which are being supported inadequately by a lack of economic resources emanating from continued pressures on defense spending across the U.S. & EU markets. The global armored vehicle market is projected to witness a mid single digit growth rate through 2018 with replacement demand & vehicle upgrades likely to be key demand drivers across traditional markets while growing economic capabilities, ageing vehicle fleet and strong external threat perception are likely to drive significant increase in defense spending across emerging markets & regions.

Amid continued budgetary pressures, an increased emphasis is being placed on procurement of proven & derivative platforms and pursuing upgrades & modernization with reluctance towards funding scratch up, developmental programs. However, high priority programs, like the JLTV, are likely to stay on course albeit budgetary constraints. Additionally, total lifecycle cost is becoming a strategically significant parameter for decision making pertaining to procurement of military equipment, more than ever before, thereby, significantly enhancing focus & emphasis on competitiveness across industry OEMs. The intensely contested JLTV program; involving procurement of over 49,000 & 5,500 vehicles to replace a third of the U.S. Army & the Marine Corps' fleet of Humvees; is scheduled to enter LRIP phase in 2015 and will potentially open long-term growth avenues for the winning OEM given the scale & magnitude of the program. Further, international export sales are becoming increasingly significant for almost all key industry players witnessing pressure on top line growth which are likely to prevail through 2017 when the U.S. Army is scheduled to start recapitalizing.

Additionally, the Ukraine crisis & growing Russian activities in Eastern Europe have triggered concerns with respect to defense capabilities & has heightened threat perception amongst a number of European states, based in Northern & Eastern Europe, led by Poland & Norway, which are focusing on building up military capabilities rapidly to counter growing Russian threat in the region which is likely to drive an increase in defense spending across Northern & Eastern Europe over near term. Russia’s defense budget is projected to grow to 4% of its GDP by 2016 while Chinese defense spending, too, continues to spiral up with China’s growing regional influence in the APAC region which has been driving defense spending across a number of key nations in the region.
