Textron Systems - Strategy Dossier - 2017 - Strategic Focus & Priorities, Key Strategies & Plans, SWOT, Trends & Challenges, Market Outlook
The Global Defense spending is witnessing growth as of late driven by the evolution of traditional world order marked by deterioration of traditional rule based decision making and Russian resurgence, growing threat from terrorism & extremism, ongoing conflict in the Middle East and alteration of regional dynamics in the Asia-Pacific region with rapid military build-up by China & continued nuclear antics being played by North Korea. All of these have collectively been driving defense spending across most key nations globally with the upward growth trend likely to be sustained over medium term. Replacement of old, ageing cold war legacy hardware is going to drive growth across most traditional markets, led by, North America and Europe while acquisition of new hardware & systems, aimed at strengthening & expansion of capabilities, will be the key to growth across emerging markets based in the Middle East & APAC regions, led by Saudi Arabia & India respectively.
