Since
the end of the Cold War, there
have been major efforts to consolidate
and reorganise the European
defence industry in an attempt
to compete with the giants of
America's defence industry.
European agencies like the Organisation
for Joint Armament Co-operation
(OCCAR) and the European Defence
Agency (EDA) are helping to
co-ordinate the defence industry
and procurement among EU member
states. Yet, EU defence expenditure
on equipment remains far below
the US, while the industry itself
is fragmented in some areas.
More than
300 major companies in 14 countries
are mentioned over three chapters
in this market report, providing
a complete analysis of the current
state of the EU defence industry.
There is an assessment of efforts
to consolidate and enhance co-operation
within the industry as well
as American involvement and
details of ownership, mergers
and recent acquisitions. There
are overviews of current major
collaborative defence projects,
current EU armed forces profiles
and the addresses and web links
of all the featured companies
and agencies. Updated in April
2008, this is the only
complete assessment of the current
state of the EU defence industry
available.
