Trump Administration National Security Budget - What are the Implications for Global Defense?
Our analysis suggested that the renewed emphasis by the Trump administration to renew US leadership across the world would translate to the US defense budget rising steadily over the short to medium term; this was reflected in the FY 2018 budget, and has been further cemented by the most recent FY 2019 budget request which incorporates $686 billion for the US DoD with a number of major warfighting investments across airborne, naval, ground and space platforms and systems. "The US fiscal year budgetary outlook shows strong agreement with Strategy Analytics' US defense spending forecast, which is a testament to the robust methodology applied by Strategy Analytics," noted Asif Anwar, ADS Director at Strategy Analytics. "However, it does mean that US defense spending will not have any measurable impact on the projected global defense spending profile, and the US will continue to see its share of global spending decline through 2026." Mr. Anwar continued, "On the other hand, the US will remain the largest defense market in the world with spending growing to $789.5 billion in 2026. This will maintain momentum behind the US defense industry, sustaining growth for major suppliers like Boeing (News - Alert), General Dynamics, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon, as well as filtering down to the enabling technology supply chain epitomized by companies such as Microsemi (News - Alert), Qorvo, Teledyne and Wolfspeed."
