Defence Modernisation and Indigenous Weapons Market

The global defence industrial base is going through its most significant realignment since the end of the Cold War, and the pace of that change is accelerating. Nations across Europe, the Indo-Pacific, and the Middle East are aggressively pursuing strategic autonomy, actively reducing their reliance on traditional superpower suppliers by building domestic design, development, and manufacturing capabilities for critical weapons systems. This includes fighter jets, main battle tanks, artillery systems, and precision-guided munitions across the board. The market is characterised by complex government-to-government (G2G) agreements, technology transfer offsets, and a surge in domestic R&D spending that shows no signs of slowing.
