International Military Markets - Europe

Overview

With Europe today dominated by two multinational pillars – the European Union and the NATO Alliance – the continent moves closer to achieving cohesion. But despite its peaceful integration, Europe now faces distinct military shortcomings at a time of great stresses along its outer borders. International Military Markets - Europe provides insight into the economies, budget situations, and military needs and compositions of each European country.

This service provides a country-by-country examination of the region's military capabilities, equipment requirements, and inventories. The individual country reports are structured to condense a vast range of information into concise segments. Governmental and political structures, political and economic trends, national and defense budgets, force structures, military planning requirements, recent and future procurements, the security environment, threat assessments, and military postures – all are detailed in this volume.

An annual subscription features coverage of 35 countries, plus a Market Segment Analysis that presents a broad overview of the region's 10-year military market. Completing the service are two appendices providing complementary data, and an Excel spreadsheet identifying Weapon Systems by Country, Region and Category.

For ease of use, each country report in International Military Markets - Europe is broken into three sections, as follows:

Our new, streamlined Data reports on individual countries make it easy to quickly find the intelligence you need. A graphic presentation of the country's competitive strengths and weaknesses is coupled with charts and graphs on the military market that condense complex data into visually appealing graphics. Recent and projected defense spending info, a breakout of security assistance funding, recent sales activity, and complementary details on the national budget – all are plotted for quick identification of future opportunities.

The Market Overview reports review each country's military programs – from aircraft to warships – and provide details on plans for future procurement.

The Force Structures reports provide a detailed listing of all military hardware in the nation's inventory, including aircraft, missiles, UAVs, military vehicles, warships, and more.

The Asian continent and Pacific Rim hold the world's greatest potential for defense spending growth. This region's competing interests for resources, territory, or offshore exclusive economic zones serve as catalysts for rising military and security spending, resulting in ever-growing acquisitions and military modernization demands. As global economic power continues shifting from West to East, so too does military power. Besides comprising potential flashpoints for peer-on-peer conflict, the region is confronting great power competition, high seas piracy, and internal security pressures.

With a geographic purview that includes the states of the former Soviet Union as well as Afghanistan and Pakistan, Eurasia represents a multifaceted security environment characterized by energy politics and conflict flashpoints. Eurasia serves as a convergence point for Russia's assertive foreign policy, growing Chinese influence, latent Islamic fundamentalism, and U.S. and European efforts to ensure access to burgeoning energy markets. International Military Markets - Eurasia offers analytical insight into the complex geopolitical and economic realities of these emerging markets.

Defense spending in Latin America is being driven by the fight against illegal traffickers and transnational organized criminal groups. The fight against these groups has overwhelmed local and national police in the region, forcing militaries to respond to the threat. At the same time, Latin American governments must balance security needs against inconsistent economic growth. That has kept defense budgets stable over the past few years.

The Middle East and Africa are two of the world’s most crucial areas in terms of conflicts, regional security, and critical natural resources. As these regions' security challenges intensify, so, too, does the desire for sovereign defense capabilities. International Military Markets - Middle East & Africa takes you inside the myriad developments in these two regions to offer a clear perspective on the geopolitical factors that will shape their futures.

The U.S. represents the largest defense market in the world, and the uncertain budget environment in Washington makes tracking every dollar count. International Military Markets - North America provides critical analysis of political, economic, and budgetary uncertainties that could impact military acquisition programs in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean. Includes detailed overviews of defense spending trends, ongoing military programs, future requirements, and the force structures of each country.

A compilation of Forecast International's six International Military Market services. This library provides a regionally based country-by-country examination of the military capabilities, equipment requirements, and inventories of more than 120 countries.
