KNDS has now converted Görlitz into a defence manufacturing site. The former Alstom rail plant adds capacity for armoured vehicle systems as Europe works to rebuild land-systems output.
Sweden’s SKORPION2 deal brings mine warfare into renewed production focus. The framework agreement links vehicle integration, ammunition supply, training systems, and NATO interoperability.
INKAS expands protected-mobility production across three new North American facilities. The added footprint strengthens capacity for armoured vehicles, tactical platforms, UAVs, and specialist systems.
Germany’s second Arrow site expands upper-tier missile-defence infrastructure in Europe. The Bavarian deployment adds pressure across interceptors, launchers, radars, command systems, and site integration.
IRYDA+ X1 turns European drone precision into a production test. The Polish-Turkish system now has to prove repeatability, resilience, and manufacturability beyond a live demonstration.
Germany’s missile talks put NATO production capacity under renewed scrutiny. Co-production of US weapons would test licensing, technology transfer, supplier depth, and transatlantic industrial trust.
Tobyhanna is now pulling drone-component production into Army depot work. New motor and circuit-card lines reflect a push to reduce fragile overseas dependencies in low-cost unmanned systems.
Lockheed Martin’s GMLRS award reinforces growing precision-fires production pressure today. Demand for HIMARS and M270 rockets now rests on motors, warheads, guidance, electronics, actuation, test capacity, and supplier depth.
Overland AI has moved ground autonomy into production contract territory. The Marine Corps award will test whether autonomous vehicles can support MADIS through rugged hardware, trusted software, and fieldable sustainment.
Kuwait is adding NASAMS to its national layered air-defence architecture. The KONGSBERG-Raytheon route reinforces demand for modular sensors, launchers, command systems, interceptor integration, and long-term sustainment.
