Global Defense Spending has been on a surge over the recent years aided by strong tailwinds and favorable underlying forces led by tectonic shifts in traditional geopolitical dynamics & equations following China’s military ascendance and Russian regional resurgence triggering the return of the great power competition between the traditional and revisionist states in the age of multi-polarity in the 21st century. The Global Defense Spending reached the record high level of $2.1 trillion for 2021 while registering a 7% year-on-year growth. The rise of China & its military bullying in the Asia Pacific region and the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine have collectively led to significant turbulence and a subsequent, massive surge in defense spending across APAC & Europe which is likely to be sustained at least for over a decade. The degree of impact of the Russia-Ukraine war and the subsequent monumental geopolitical shifts underway could easily be gauged by Germany’s recent, complete turnaround of its traditional defense posture with an upfront commitment of EUR 100+ billion towards defense and the rapid swerving of traditional neutrals of the North, Sweden & Finland, towards NATO.
The U.S. defense industrial base is preparing to switch to the afterburner mode with significant investments towards R&D on next generation technologies, production ramp-up & increase in procurement rates over key programs transitioning towards full-rate production over near-term, like F-35 Lightning II JSF, the need to meet increasing international demand for Fighter Jets, ATGMs, MANPADS, Missile Defense Systems & Armor and ongoing defense equipment assistance to Ukraine necessitating production rate ramp-ups & increases on key programs to backfill inventories across the U.S. & NATO allies with increasing environmental uncertainty & volatility, political tensions & risks of escalations following the virtual evaporation of traditional, rule-based world order.
Further, the development of next generation defense systems and technologies continues unabated to match near-peer adversaries in terms of capabilities and to maintain traditional U.S. military overmatch over adversaries leading to continued funding for development of strategic programs & technologies, with the U.S. R&D outlay having grown by 24% between 2012 & 2021, and which is likely to be sustained over medium term with the U.S defense budget likely to be over $800 billion for FY2023.
The defense industrial base across Europe, too, is set for a renaissance at least for the medium term with increasing threat perception levels, rapid shift in defense posture & focus on preparedness with plans for replacement & modernization of ageing, cold-war era defense equipment and leapfrogging of technological capabilities marked by upgrade efforts for legacy platforms, like the British Challenger & French Leclerc MBTs, and the initiation of a number of new defense programs across the old continent led by the Franco-German FCAS & MGCS apart from the British-Italian-Swedish Tempest 6th generation fighter jet program amid increasing environmental uncertainty & volatility, political tensions & risks of escalations.
