Key Highlights
With few internal or external threats, German defense policy is largely aligned towards the prevention and containment of crises and conflicts. Despite this, the countrys defense spend which is valued at US$43.5 billion in 2009, spends as much as US$14.4 billion on procurement of military hardware. Furthermore, the country has a mature domestic sector, capable of fulfilling both domestic and export requirements. Nevertheless, Germanys participation in peacekeeping activities and in the development of advanced military transport aircraft is expected to support the growth of its defense industry over the forecast period.
With no exclusive organizations focused on fighting terrorism, Germanys homeland security expenditure is largely concerned with the security of its border and the international threat of terrorism.
