  • SIPRI Yearbook 2001: Armaments, Disarmament and International
    Appendix 4D. The 100 largest arms-producing companies, 1999 REINHILDE WEIDACHER, ANNE BRANDT-HANSEN and the SIPRI ARMS INDUSTRY NETWORK* I. The SIPRI ‘top 100’ in 1999 and major events in 2000 After half a decade of rapid concentration in the context of shrinking markets, the Western arms industry has entered a new phase of reorganization in which a smaller number of large companies face a constant if not growing level of demand for new military equipment. A period of intensive mergers and acquisitions (M&A) began in the early 1990s. Among large aerospace companies, concentration culminated in 1997–98 in the USA and in 1999–2000 in Western Europe. The high rate of concentration in 1999 is reflected in the significant increase in the combined value of arms sales of the 100 largest arms-producing companies in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and developing countries (except China)— by more than 11 per cent in nominal terms, from $141 billion in 1998 to $157 billion in 1999 (table 4D.2).1 Mergers and acquisitions accounted for the overwhelming share of this increase. The US Government responded to the high rate of concentration achieved by 1999 with an arms industrial policy which had as one of its major aims to preserve a suffi- cient level of competition in order to improve ‘affordability’ for the Department of Defense (DOD) and promote ‘innovation’ in military technology. In July 2000 the DOD adopted a new competition policy ‘requiring that DOD consider the effects of its acquisitions and technology strategy and budget plans on future competition’.2 To facilitate continued competition the DOD also favours a ‘competitive transatlantic industrial model—with industrial linkages among multiple firms on both sides of the Atlantic and technology sharing subject to security safeguards’.3 M&A in the US arms industry continued in 2000.
