Belgium Aerospace & Defense Overview The Belgian aerospace market is primarily comprised of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) producing assemblies, sub-assemblies and components for various aircraft, and offering various maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services. These SMEs focus on advanced, small-batch production capabilities in both metallurgy and composite materials. The overall aerospace and defense (A&D) industry has total revenues of US$3.7 billion, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.1% since 2010. The A&D industry is expected to grow at a 0.8% CAGR in the near-future, with the industry expected to reach a value of US$3.9 billion by the end of 2019. Recently, civil aerospace has been the Belgian A&D industry’s most lucrative segment, representing over 70% of the industry's total market. Belgium’s defense industry is fully privatized and centered on manufacturing components, subassemblies and small arms rather than full weapon systems and platforms. As a small nation, Belgium cannot maintain a large defense industry based on internal requirements, and instead, relies on external components and subcontractor work on major defense programs. Belgium’s military, similarly to other countries in Europe, is aging. The average soldier is 43 years old and the number of soldiers has declined from 40,000 in 2006 to 32,000 in 2016. Due to this decline, Belgium is streamlining its forces to no longer have a separate army, navy and air force, but rather a unified defense entity with a land, sea and air component served by a joint medical component. Additionally, Belgium has developed the Belgian Soldier Transformation (BEST) program integrating the latest technologies, including smart textiles, enhanced integrated and scalable communication, personal optics and global positioning.

China Aerospace & Defense Overview In 2016, the aerospace and defense industry in continued to grow due to increases in defense spending and changes to the Catalogue of Industries for Guiding Foreign Investment, which expanded the range of approved investment activities of foreign entities into the aviation sector. These changes should allow foreign companies to manufacture small scale aircraft parts, including aircraft engine components and bearings, and drive foreign M&A and direct investment activities. In 2016, China’s defense budget was the second largest in the world, as it rose 6.2% to US$192.0 billion. China’s military expenditure as a percentage of GDP is only 1.9%, which is low compared to other countries like India (2.3%), the US (3.3%) and Russia (5.4%), indicating additional capacity to increase military spending. The President of China, Xi Jinping, reduced armed forces personnel by approximately 13.0% (300,000 people) earlier this year as part of China’s ongoing restructuring to modernize its military with robust cyber warfare and joint operation capabilities. The commercial aerospace sector has also seen rapid growth, and China’s domestic aviation market is expected to become the world’s largest by 2035, surpassing North America and Europe with 1.9 trillion revenue passenger kilometers projected by 2035. Within the next 20 years, 6,810 new aircraft would be required to meet this growing travel demand. Domestic and global demand for travel has caused the country to enter the commercial aircraft manufacturing business itself in order to reduce dependency on Boeing and . Chinese state-owned aircraft manufacture, , plans to produce a 158 seat sing- aisle aircraft, with 570 order commitments received from 23 customers. COMAC believes that its new aircraft, the COMAC C919, has a market potential of nearly US$100 billion, and additionally has entered into a joint venture with UAC in Russia to develop a wide-body jet, the COMAC C929.

India Aerospace & Defense Overview The Indian aerospace and defense (A&D) industry is one of the fastest growing A&D industries worldwide. The Indian aerospace industry, an approximate US$16 billion market, currently ranks in the global top 10 aerospace industries and is predicted to become the third largest aviation market by 2026. As the A&D market continues to increase, India will require 1,850 new commercial aircraft worth US$265 billion, over the next two decades. The robust expansion in commercial aviation creates similar augmentation within the A&D supply chain subsectors, particularly within the maintenance, repair and overhaul market (MRO). The Indian government aims to continue expanding the MRO industry by offering exemptions on paying customs duty, airport royalties, value-added taxes and ensuring adequate land available for MRO service centers. The Indian defense industry also continues to expand quickly. The Indian defense sector budget (US$50.7 billion) became the fourth largest global defense budget in the world and will continue to grow to US$56.5 billion by 2018 as the country seeks to bolster its military. The Indian government offers several policy initiatives aimed at strengthening the local defense industry. In 2016, the Indian government removed regulations barring foreign A&D firms from holding more than a 49.0% stake in local ventures. This relaxation of FDI regulations will assist India in becoming a key A&D manufacturing hub. The easing of regulations also spurred Boeing to announce, in November 2016, plans to invest in a factory to produce the F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jet. Additionally, reports exist of Lockheed Martin’s plan to shift their F-16 production facility to India. As more favorable regulations are introduced, large A&D firms will continue to invest in India’s burgeoning A&D industry.

Mexico Aerospace and Defense Overview In the last few years, Mexico has experienced an influx of foreign firms establishing manufacturing operations in its aerospace and defense (A&D) sector. Currently, the aerospace sector in Mexico consists of approximately 310 parts and components manufacturing firms, manufacturing, repair and overhaul centers (MROs), technical schools and universities, as well as service providers. Nevertheless, Mexican A&D firms do not yet manufacture large aircraft from start to finish. The Mexican aerospace industry includes five main clusters located in the states of Baja California (Tijuana-Mexicali), Sonora, Chihuahua, Queretaro and Nuevo León. Overall, the Mexican A&D industry continues to expand with high growth from OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers and more modest growth from Tier 2 and Tier 3 suppliers. These aerospace hubs continue to attract new players interested in Mexico’s competitive labor costs and incentives offered by local, state and federal authorities. Mexico’s aerospace manufacturing capabilities continually progress from components, small parts and harnesses to manufacturing larger sections, such as engines, cockpits parts, wings, etc. Many opportunities still exist in the MRO services, testing machinery, metal treatments and aerospace molding industries. The Mexican A&D total market value is forecasted to reach US$9.6 billion by 2018 and the number of A&D firms are expected to grow to 420 within the same period.

Poland Aerospace & Defense Overview The aerospace and defense (A&D) industry in Poland has experienced substantial growth in recent years. Continual investments from foreign companies, growing passenger traffic at Polish airports and the modernization of Soviet-era military equipment will continue to drive growth in the near-term. The aerospace industry has grown immensely over its 80-year history, with now over 120 aviation and aviation-related companies generating over US$900 million of annual sales and over 23,000 employees operating in Poland. Around 80% of aviation plants are located in south-eastern Poland in one of three aviation clusters, and 90% of aviation production is exported. Polish aviation companies gain their competitive edge from low labor costs and high quality production due to significant expertise in treatment of materials, casting, mechanical engineering and electronics. The advanced level of processes used in the Polish aviation sector is best illustrated by the participation of Avio Polska and GE EDC Poland in the development of the innovative GEnx engine used in the Boeing 747-8 and 787 Dreamliner. In addition, the increased number of passengers traveling through Polish airports, which is expected to grow by 5.5% annually, reaching 40 million passengers by 2020 and 59 million by 2030, is another strong indication of continued growth in this market segment. The defense industry in Poland is also poised for growth as the Polish military continuously undergoes changes designed to transform it into a more capable and mobile force, compatible with NATO troops. In order to modernize, an estimated US$45 billion will be spent between 2013 and 2022. In 2016, the Polish government allocated US$9.9 billion to the defense budget – 2.0% of the nations GDP. Poland’s Minister of Defense recently announced his intent to increase defense spending to 3.0% of GDP in the near future.

The growing defense segment totaled US$12.6 billion, representing 63.0% of the overall industry value. The South Korean government’s defense budget was US$38.6 billion in 2015, representing a 3.6% rise from the previous year and solidifying its position as the tenth largest military spender worldwide. In an effort to modernize its military force and meet alliance specified requirements, the South Korean government has initiated US$12 to US$14 billion worth of U.S. Foreign Military Sales acquisition programs, a steep increase from previous years. The South Korean commercial aerospace industry is driven by local companies Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) and Korean Air, one of the largest commercial airlines in the country. Subsidiaries of KAI and Korean Air manufacture and assemble integral parts for aerospace giants Boeing and Airbus, and are active in developing indigenous aircraft, including UAVs, rotary wings and fixed wings. In 2015, KAI won the bid for the US$17 billion KF-X project from the Korean government, which will be paid out through 2025. Korean Air has a total of 159 aircraft, and is also very active in providing maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services for both commercial and defense aircraft. The Korean MRO market is estimated to be US$3 billion in 2014 and is expected to grow 23.5% to US$3.7 billion market by 2020.

Sweden Aerospace and Defense Overview Despite its relatively small size, the Swedish aerospace and defense (A&D) industry is recognized as a world-class A&D region as a result of strategic importance and the country’s strong focus on technology development. Employing approximately 12,000 people, the Swedish A&D industry annually generates about US$3.3 billion in turnover and imports around US$450M of aircraft parts. The Swedish aerospace market is particularly active in the cutting- edge A&D technology, such aero engines, avionics, space applications and communications and positioning systems. Strong development of opportunities exist within the avionics, aircraft parts and components sectors due to increased airline passenger traffic and a skilled workforce. As the Swedish aerospace industry continues to grow, the defense industry also exhibits expansion. One factor of growth stems from recent Russian aggressions, which is spurring the Swedish Government to increase spending on defense from its present budget of US$5.1 billion to US$6 billion by 2020. Sweden’s arms export industry, a US$1.2 billion market, also contributes to the strong defense industry growth, but faces challenges due to the government seeking to pass legislation barring the selling of arms to non-democratic nations. The country’s top defense contractor, SAAB, has already warned if the proposed legislation were accepted, the company may have to relocate its R&D out of Sweden.

United Arab Emirates Aerospace & Defense Overview The United Arab Emirates (UAE) leverages its proximity to international trading routes and central location to strengthen its position in the global travel and aviation markets. The UAE aviation sector is valued at US$80 billion and accounts for nearly 15% of the country’s GDP. Significant contributions to the UAE’s robust civil aerospace market include two world-class airlines (Emirates and Etihad), two budget airlines (Fly Dubai and Air Arabia) and the Dubai World Central (DWC) Airport, which will be the world’s largest airport when completed in 2030. Within the aerospace and defense (A&D) supply chain, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) and aircraft decommissioning and recycling opportunities exist due to a lack of nearby MRO and decommissioning facilities. The Dubai MRO market is forecasted to grow significantly from US$4.2 billion to US$8.8 billion, and the Dubai decommissioning and recycle centers are predicted to increase US$500M annually for the next 10 years. Furthermore, as the UAE’s A&D manufacturing and MRO industries blossom, many opportunities will continue to develop for international companies to partner with UAE OEM firms. As the UAE continues to focus on becoming the gateway to global markets, specifically in the Middle East, North Africa and South Asia (MENASA) region, companies across all aerospace subsectors benefit, particularly airspace management, digitization and business aviation. Defense expenditures, as a proportion of GDP, have remained comparatively high in recent years in response to rising Islamist extremism in the region, persistent tensions with Iran and the UAE’s participation in the Saudi-led coalition’s military efforts in Yemen. The country is looking to decrease its dependency on defense imports through the development of its own defense manufacturing capability and bolster the Advanced Military Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul Center (AMMROC).
