The U.S. Navy’s Most Expensive Weapons Programs in 2026
- The U.S. Department of Defense recently released a report detailing its requested budget for the 2026 fiscal year. Of the Pentagon’s nearly $962 billion in requested funding for the coming year, approximately 40% — or $384.4 billion — will go towards weapons development and procurement. Even though the DOD’s weapons development and procurement budget accounts for less than half of total U.S. defense spending, it is still more than double the entire military budget of nearly every other country in the world — and the bulk of next year’s weapon acquisition spending is earmarked for the U.S. Navy. According to the report, issued by the Under Secretary of Defense, the DOD has allocated $95.3 billion for naval weapons and equipment procurement, a more than 16% increase from fiscal 2025, and tens of billions of dollars more than the U.S. Air Force or U.S. Army procurement budgets. The U.S. Navy is also set to receive an additional $29.2 billion in funding for weapons research, development, testing, and evaluation — a $3.2 billion increase from 2025. The Navy’s unmatched weapons procurement budget directly reflects the branch’s unique geopolitical importance. Essential for sustaining land-based combat operations, U.S. Navy vessels can deliver food, equipment, fuel, and firepower across the world’s oceans. With bases spanning four continents and ships deployed around the world, the Navy can also respond quickly to international crises. Even in peacetime, the U.S. Navy serves as a guarantor of global trade and commerce — 90% of which is transported by ship. The Navy also helps maintain peace by deterring foreign aggressors, both through its forward presence and fleet of submarines armed with nuclear ballistic missiles. With an eye toward maintaining American naval superiority, at least twenty separate U.S. Navy weapons programs have been outlined for fiscal 2026, 15 of which are expected to cost at least $1 billion. Using data from DOD’s annual budget request, 24/7 Wall St. identified the U.S. Navy’s most expensive weapons programs in 2026. We considered all Navy and Marine Corps weapons programs detailed in the report for the coming fiscal year and ranked them by cost projections. All supplemental data is also from the DOD’s report. The weapon systems on this list include fighter and transport aircraft, offensive missiles and munitions, surface ships and submarines, as well as missile defense systems. The costs listed reflect estimates for procurement, research and development, or a combination of both. The collective cost of the systems on this list is expected to exceed $60.6 billion — and much of that spending will go to major defense companies that have been contracted by the Pentagon to develop and manufacture these weapons. Companies awarded these contracts include Boeing, General Dynamics, General Electric, Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII), Lockheed Martin, and RTX, formerly Raytheon Technologies. These are the U.S. Navy’s most expensive weapons programs in 2026. Why It Matters The U.S. defense budget is by far the largest in the world, surpassing that of the next nine highest-spending countries combined. Next year, the Defense Department is requesting over $95 billion for naval weapons and equipment procurement alone — more than Germany’s entire defense budget in 2024. Heavy investment in weapons systems for the U.S. Navy directly reflects the branch’s importance to American interests, in times of both war and peace. 20.

Northrop Grumman May Continue To Outperform Lockheed Martin
- Northrop Grumman's fundamentals remain solid, with strong segment performance and robust margins despite a drag on top line growth from the Space segment. Q2 EPS growth was impressive, beating expectations, though cash flow was weak; outlook for FCF growth helps alleviate near-term concerns. Valuation is elevated but still attractive relative to the sector, given Northrop Grumman's massive backlog and leading defense position.

Live: Northrop Grumman Up 3% After Releasing Earnings
- Live Updates Live Coverage Updates appear automatically as they are published. Northrop Soars 10:53 am by Eric Bleeker It’s a tale of two defense stocks today as Northrop raises full year targets and is up 8.4%. Meanwhile, Lockheed affirmed full year revenue and cash flow and shares are down 6.4%. Executive Team Quotes 7:27 am by Eric Bleeker “The Northrop Grumman team delivered a strong second quarter, with increased sales and outstanding operating performance.” – Kathy Warden “We continue to see growing demand globally for our broad range of product offerings, which resulted in 18% international sales growth in the quarter.” – Kathy Warden “With confidence in our team and our ability to deliver for our customers, we are increasing our full-year guidance for segment operating income, EPS and free cash flow.” – Kathy Warden Northrop Grumman (NYSE: NOC) reported this morning and investors like what they see. In premarket trading, shares are up a little more than 3%. Let’s take a closer look at why this defense contractor should see strong share gains the day after reporting Q2 earnings. Northrop Grumman Earnings Summarized Northrop Grumman Corporation reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, showing a 1% increase in sales to $10.4 billion compared to the same quarter in 2024. The company achieved a diluted EPS of $8.15, which includes a $1.04 benefit from the divestiture of its training services business. Net earnings rose to $1.2 billion, reflecting a 25% increase year-over-year. The company’s operating margin improved to 13.8% from 10.7%, driven by a $335 million increase in operating income. Northrop also raised its full-year guidance for key financial metrics, including segment operating income and free cash flow. CEO Kathy Warden expressed confidence in the company’s performance, citing strong demand for its products and an 18% growth in international sales. Despite these positive results, free cash flow decreased by 42% due to higher net cash taxes. Northrop Grumman returned over $700 million to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends during the quarter. Why Shares Are Surging We bolded the area to watch above, which is Northrop raising their guide for 2025. That’s important, because in their last quarter Northrop had actually cut their 2025 guidance. The company now expects to earn $25 to $25.40 this year. It’s not all good news, however. One example that Wall Street won’t like is the company guiding toward $42.05 billion to $42.25 billion in sales, which at the midpoint is lower than previous guidance. Still, with the company raising profit targets, Wall Street is cheering these earnings. The post Live: Northrop Grumman Up 3% After Releasing Earnings appeared first on 24/7 Wall St..

Live: Why Lockheed Martin Is Plunging After Q2 Earnings
- Live Updates Live Coverage Updates appear automatically as they are published. Lockheed Down 6.4% 10:54 am by Eric Bleeker Lockheed shares are down 6.4% in morning trading. Extra salt in the wounds of Lockheed investors comes compliments of Northrop Grumman, which is up more than 8% today after it raised full-year profitability targets. One concerning issue for Lockheed is their Q2 charge is for cost overruns and performance issues on a classified aeronautics program. That presented “one-time” charges for this quarter, but could also be an ominous sign for the future. It appears investors are betting that what we saw in Q2 speaks to more risk for Lockheed in the future. More Details on Lockheed's Earnings 8:36 am by Eric Bleeker LMT | Lockheed Martin Corporation Q2’25 Earnings Highlights: Net EPS: $1.46 ; DOWN 79% YoY Revenue: $18.2B (Est.

You can join the live webcast by visiting https://www.lockheedmartin.com/investor. Key Financials Last Quarter 8:08 am by Eric Bleeker As a warning, this won’t be pretty! Here’s a summary of some of Lockheed’s key financials last quarter compared to last year’s second quarter. Metric Q2 25 Q2 24 YoY Change Revenue $18.20B $18.12B 0.43% Net Income $342.00M $1.64B -79.16% Operating Cash Flow $201.00M $1.88B -89.29% Free Cash Flow $-150.00M $1.51B N/M Shares Now Down 8.15% 7:44 am by Eric Bleeker Shares of Lockheed trended down nearly 9% moments ago, but are now sitting at an 8.15% loss as of 7:45 a.m. ET. Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) just released Q2 earnings and shares are plunging. That’s in stark contrast to peer Northrop Grumman (NYSE: NOC), which just reported and has seen shares gain in premarket trading. Let’s dig into Lockheed’s earnings and see why Wall Street is so disappointed. Lockheed Earnings in Brief Lockheed Martin reported Q2 2025 sales of $18.2 billion, a slight increase from $18.1 billion in Q2 2024. The company faced significant challenges, recording pre-tax losses of $1.6 billion on various programs, impacting earnings per share by $5.83. Net earnings were $342 million, or $1.46 per share, down from $1.6 billion, or $6.85 per share, in the previous year. Cash from operations decreased to $201 million from $1.9 billion, while free cash flow was negative at $(150) million. The company reaffirmed its 2025 guidance for sales and free cash flow. CEO Jim Taiclet highlighted strong performance in combat operations and increased demand for key programs, despite the financial setbacks. The company returned $1.3 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. Lockheed Martin is investing in infrastructure and innovation, maintaining its focus on operational performance and capital allocation strategy. What Doesn’t Wall Street Like? Obviously, the results last quarter were a setback with numerous losses incurred. However, the company reaffirmed 2025 guidance for sales and free cash flow. So, while last quarter was bumpy, the overall “big picture” may not be as troubling. Yet, Wall Street isn’t happy. Here are a few ‘weak’ areas to watch. First, revenue was expected to come in at about $18.6 billion last quarter but only hit $18.2 billion. The company beat on adjusted EPS, but that figure might be concerning. Second, note that while Lockheed reaffirmed cash flow and revenue, there’s no reference to net income figures. We’ll continue monitoring earnings, but for now, shares are selling off heavily.

Israel Operates 348 U.S. Made Fighters and Helicopters To Assist In A War With Iran
- Key Points Out of Middle Eastern militaries, Israel ranks fairly high in terms of its strength–much of this having to do with its air force The IDF primarily uses the F-16 Sufa, a fairly versatile fighter jet introduced in 2004 with roughly 220 in active service Apart from the Sufa and the Eagle, The IDF also uses helicopters like the AH-64 Apache, AS565 Panther, and UH-60 Black Hawk Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) Out of Middle Eastern militaries, Israel ranks fairly high in terms of its strength–much of this having to do with its air force. While Israel might not have the largest air force in the region, it does have one of the most technologically advanced as it relies heavily on its Western allies to provide some of the newest fighter aircraft on the market. Here, 24/7 Wall St. is taking a closer look at the Israeli Air Force and what it has to offer going into a conflict with Iran. To identify every aircraft in the Israeli Air Force, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed active military aircraft data from FlightGlobal’s 2025 World Air Forces report, an annual military aviation publication. We ranked the aircraft according to how many active units were in service. We have included supplemental data from the Military Factory regarding the type of aircraft, year introduced, classification, active number of aircraft, country of origin, manufacturer, top speed, and armament. The IDF primarily uses the F-16 Sufa, a fairly versatile fighter jet introduced in 2004 with roughly 220 in active service. The F-16 can reach speeds near Mach 2 and carries various weapons, including missiles and guided munitions. Another mainstay of the Israeli Air Force is the F-15 Eagle. Israel was one of the first foreign operators of the F-15. The Eagle is a legendary American air superiority fighter that first entered service in 1976. One thing that stands out about this aircraft is its perfect combat record. Apart from the Sufa and the Eagle, The IDF also uses helicopters like the AH-64 Apache, AS565 Panther, and UH-60 Black Hawk. These helicopters are equipped with machine guns and some can equip Hellfire missiles or Hydra rocket pods. One of the newest additions to Israel’s Air Force is the F-35 Lightning II. This is a fifth-generation stealth fighter aircraft with a lot to offer. Here is a look at every aircraft in Israel’s Air Force: Why Are We Covering This? Israel’s Air Force is a cornerstone of its national defense, while also allowing it to project power within the region. These aircraft also serve in surveillance and reconnaissance roles which are vital for gathering intelligence, preventing emerging threats and planning future operations. 20.

Iran Has More F-4 Phantoms Than Any Nation—Here’s What That Means in a Fight With Israel
- Key Points Iran’s tensions with Israel came to blows last week as both nations exchanged missiles across Middle Eastern airspace Each of these nations will be relying heavily on their respective air forces to gain an upper hand in the conflict Before the 1979 Iranian Revolution, the U.S. sold a large number of Phantoms to Iran as part of an effort to modernize the Shah’s military Are you ahead, or behind on retirement? SmartAsset’s free tool can match you with a financial advisor in minutes to help you answer that today. Each advisor has been carefully vetted, and must act in your best interests. Don’t waste another minute; get started by clicking here.(Sponsor) Iran’s tensions with Israel came to blows last week as both nations exchanged missiles across Middle Eastern airspace. While these two nations are involved in a hot conflict, there are larger geopolitical questions to answer as to which nations are coming to the aid of Israel or Iran as this is ongoing. But one thing is for sure, each of these nations will be relying heavily on their respective air forces to gain an upper hand in the conflict. Here, 24/7 Wall St. is taking a closer look at Islamic Republic of Iran’s Air Force. One thing that stands out for Iran’s air force is that it has more F-4 Phantom II fighter jets in service than any other nation on Earth. The F-4 Phantom II rose prominence in the 1960s, noteworthy is its widespread use by the United States during the Vietnam War. These jets were known for their speed, payload, and adaptability, ultimately becoming a symbol of American air power in that era. But how did these jets end up in Iran’s hands? Before the 1979 Iranian Revolution, the U.S. sold a large number of Phantoms to Iran as part of an effort to modernize the Shah’s military. However, despite decades of international sanctions and aging hardware, Iran still maintains a fleet of over 60 operational F-4s. Another key asset in Iran’s arsenal is its fleet of F-14 Tomcats which were some of the best strike fighter aircraft to come out of the 1970s. (How Today’s Fighter Jets Stack Up Against Yesterday’s Icons.) Although Iran may have a fleet of fighter jets from half a century ago, these are still formidable assets as many nations around the world still regularly use aircraft from this era. To identify every Iranian combat aircraft currently in service, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed the 2025 World Air Forces report from FlightGlobal, an aviation and aerospace industry publication. We ordered these aircraft by how many are currently in active service. We also included supplemental data on the type of aircraft, top speed, armament and which Iranian military branch they serve under. Here is a look at all of Iran’s fighter jets and combat aircraft currently in service: Why Are We Covering This? Understanding the combat aircraft within Iran’s arsenal gives context for what the country is capable of in terms of its military. Recent tensions on the geopolitical stage raise the question of military strength within the region. 16.

This Is What Nearly 60 Years of Stealth Aircraft Development Looks Like
- The news recently emerged that Pakistan was planning on purchasing 40 J-35s, a fifth-generation stealth multirole combat aircraft, from China. Should this sale go through, it would be the first sale of these fifth-generation jets to an ally for China. The J-35 is incredibly stealthy. It has the ability to travel at high speeds up to Mach 2 (approximately 1,534 mph), has a high payload capacity, and is cheaper and easier to manufacture than some previous versions. The J-35 is also a prime example of how stealth aircraft design and capabilities have shifted over the years. When stealth technology was first conceptualized in World War I, the manufacturers had no idea how far the technology would come to this day. (You won’t believe how fast these military stealth planes fly.) Stealth aircraft are especially valuable for military forces because of their ability to evade radar detection. Along with advanced warfare systems and sensors, and new weapon capabilities, stealth planes allow militaries to gain a stronger understanding of who they’re up against — and strike first, should the need arise. While some countries are still using stealth aircraft from decades ago, others have pivoted to more modern stealth planes. To identify the oldest and newest stealth planes in world militaries or on order, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed the report 2023 World Air Forces from FlightGlobal, an aviation and aerospace industry website, as well as other sources. We ordered these stealth aircraft, including uncrewed aerial vehicles and aircraft on order, chronologically. Supplemental data regarding the type of aircraft, top speed, manufacturer, and armament came from Military Factory. Data on notable countries that operate these aircraft came from FlightGlobal. Why We’re Discussing Stealth Aircraft Covert air operations began in World War I with militaries attempting to reduce the visibility or sound of their aircraft. Technology in this regard has made leaps and bounds since the First World War. Companies that manufacture these jets for the military, like Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT), make billions in sales every year, and it’s worth understanding how these companies operate if you’re considering investing in them. Here are the oldest and most cutting-edge military aircraft still used to this day: 1.

Over 40 Years Old, This Is the Most Widely Flown NATO Combat Aircraft
- The strength of NATO’s air power lies in a select fleet of combat aircraft that are widely flown by its 30 member states. These aircraft play integral roles in upholding NATO’s air superiority and standing on the world stage. These jets, which include some of the most technologically sophisticated and operationally proven models, are central to NATO’s strategy of deterrence and rapid response. Here, 24/7 Wall St. is taking a closer look at the most widely used combat aircraft across all NATO countries. To identify the most widely flown combat aircraft in NATO, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed the 2024 World Air Forces report from FlightGlobal, an aviation and aerospace industry publication. We ordered these aircraft by how many are currently in active service. We also included supplemental data on the type of aircraft and top speed. We excluded trainer aircraft. Here is a look at the most widely flown combat aircraft of NATO: Why Are We Covering This? Understanding the combat aircraft in NATO’s arsenal is important because they are at the heart of the alliance’s defensive capabilities and its influence on global security. Each aircraft serves a distinct purpose within NATO, ranging from air superiority fighters to long-range bombers, and even electronic warfare aircraft that disrupt enemy systems. Knowing which aircraft that NATO countries deploy gives insight into the overall military strategies of the alliance. 26. KAI T-50 / FA-50 Golden Eagle Type: Light attack aircraft / advanced trainer Year introduced: 2005 Active aircraft: 2 Top speed: 990 mph Armament: 20mm A-50 Vulcan internal cannon, Sidewinder missiles, Maverick missiles, cluster bombs, rocket pods, general purpose bombs, guided drop bombs The KAI T-50/FA-50 Golden Eagle was designed and manufactured by Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) in collaboration with Lockheed Martin. It was introduced in 2005 and can hit speeds around 1,000 mph. The Golden Eagle is an advanced trainer and light combat aircraft that has been developed into several variants to meet a range of needs like the T-50B aerobatic version, the TA-50 light attack variant, and the FA-50, which features fighter capabilities. 25.

Built by Lockheed Martin, this gunship only recently entered service in 2010. Armed with a 30mm Bushmaster II GAU-23/A gatling gun, along with Viper Strike, Griffin, and Hellfire missiles, The Stinger II is designed to deliver serious firepower in support of ground forces. 24. Su-25 Grach Frogfoot Type: Combat aircraft Year introduced: 1981 Active aircraft: 5 Top speed: 590 mph Armament: 30mm GSh- internal cannon, rocket pods, guided munitions, conventional drop bombs, air-to-surface missiles, air-to-air missiles Recognized by the NATO reporting name “Frogfoot,” the Su-25 is a dedicated close-air support and ground attack aircraft. Although these jets have a relatively slow top speed of 590 mph, they can equip a wide array of armament including a 30mm GSh internal cannon, rocket pods, guided munitions, conventional bombs, air-to-surface missiles, and air-to-air missiles. There are currently 176 of these aircraft in active service. 23. MiG-21 Fishbed Type: Multirole fighter aircraft Year introduced: 1959 Active aircraft: 11 Top speed: 1386 mph Armament: 23mm GSh-23 internal automatic cannon, air-to-air missiles, Molniya missiles, drop bombs The MiG-21 Fishbed is one of the most widely produced fighter aircraft in aviation history.

The Ghostrider is easily one of the most heavily armed aircraft in the U.S. Air Force. Most notably in Ghostrider’s arsenal is its 105mm howitzer, which is typically seen on ground artillery platforms. This big gun delivers serious firepower with pinpoint accuracy from far above the battlefield, giving it an incredible tactical advantage. Outside of the 105mm howitzer, Ghostrider can equip a variety of missiles like Hellfires or Griffins, precision-guided bombs, or even just the basic conventional drop bombs. 18.

What is Northrop Grumman’s Most Iconic Military Plane?
- Northrop Grumman is an American manufacturer of aerospace and defense aircraft. It’s one of America’s largest companies and is a top weapons manufacturer and military provider. Throughout the years, the company has designed and built many iconic military planes to grace the skies. Whether you think the B-2 Spirit with its futuristic appearance, or perhaps the EA-6 Prowler used during the Vietnam War, is the most iconic is entirely subjective. (Also see legendary military planes throughout history.) 24/7 Wall Street reviewed a catalog of aircraft from Military Factory, an online database of arms, vehicles, and aircraft used by militaries globally to identify the most iconic combat aircraft manufactured by Northrop Grumman. Aircraft before and after the 1994 merger are included, but drones and helicopters are excluded. Because of their vast catalog, this list is in alphabetical order. It includes additional information about aircraft type, the year they were first introduced, units manufactured, top speed, and armament. Why are we covering aircraft manufacturing? The U.S. Air Force’s mission is to “Fly, fight, and win” airpower anytime, anywhere. Achieving this mission may seem daunting, but they employ five core functions to get them there: air superiority, global strike, rapid global mobility, ISR (intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance), and command and control. In fulfilling this mission, an Air Force aircraft departs every 90 seconds, 24 hours a day, each day of the year. Understanding where these aircraft come from is just a piece of knowing the inner workings of this arm of our military, in addition to our US Navy, who also utilize aircraft often. Here is a look at the most iconic combat aircraft manufactured by Northrop Grumman: A-6 Intruder Type: Carrierborne heavy strike aircraft Year introduced: 1963 Total units produced: 693 Top speed: 644 mph Armament: Cluster bombs, Maverick missiles, Harpoon missiles, HARM anti-radiation missiles, Sparrow missiles, Paveway II/III laser-guided bombs AF Guardian Type: Carrierborne anti-submarine warfare aircraft Year introduced: 1950 Total units produced: 389 Top speed: 317 mph Armament: Conventional drop bombs, depth charges, torpedoes, rockets B-2 Spirit Type: Strategic heavy stealth bomber Year introduced: 1997 Total units produced: 21 Top speed: 628 mph Armament: Air-launched cruise missiles, nuclear bombs, conventional drop bombs, joint-direct attack munitions, air-to-surface stand-off missiles B-21 Raider Type: Sixth-generation long-range strategic bomber Year introduced: Expected in 2028 Total units produced: In-development Top speed: 621 mph Armament: Conventional drop bombs, precision-guided bombs, nuclear ordnance EA-6 Prowler Type: Carrierborne electronic warfare aircraft Year introduced: 1963 Total units produced: 197 Top speed: 652 mph Armament: HARM anti-radiation missiles, ALQ-99 tactical jamming system mission pods F-14 Tomcat Type: Carrierborne fleet defense fighter Year introduced: 1974 Total units produced: 712 Top speed: 1544 mph Armament: 20mm M61A1 Vulcan internal cannon, Phoenix missiles, Sparrow missiles, Sidewinder missiles, laser-guided bombs, joint direct attack munitions, precision-guided bombs F-35 Lightning II Type: Fifth-generation multirole strike fighter aircraft Year introduced: 2016 Total units produced: 785 Top speed: 1199 mph Armament: 25mm GAU-12/U internal automatic cannon, Sidewinder missiles, Paveway II/III guided bombs, cluster bombs, Stormshadow cruise missiles, conventional drop bombs, air-to-air missiles, air-to-surface missiles F-5 Freedom Fighter / Tiger / Tiger II Type: Lightweight multirole aircraft Year introduced: 1962 Total units produced: 2246 Top speed: 1077 mph Armament: 20mm M39A2 internal automatic cannons, Sidewinder missiles, Maverick missiles, rocket pods F-89 Scorpion Type: Interceptor aircraft Year introduced: 1950 Total units produced: 1050 Top speed: 636 mph Armament: 20mm T-31 internal automatic cannons, Mighty mouse rockets, Falcon missiles F11F / F-11 Tiger Type: Carrierborne fighter aircraft Year introduced: 1956 Total units produced: 201 Top speed: 750 mph Armament: 20mm Colt Mk 12 internal automatic cannons, Sidewinder missiles F3F Type: Carrierborne biplane fighter aircraft Year introduced: 1936 Total units produced: 147 Top speed: 264 mph Armament: 7.62mm Browning M1919 machine guns, 12.7mm Browning M2 heavy machine guns, conventional drop bombs F4F Wildcat Type: Carrierborne monoplane fighter aircraft Year introduced: 1940 Total units produced: 7722 Top speed: 332 mph Armament: 12.7mm Browning M2 machine guns, conventional drop bombs F6F Hellcat Type: Carrierborne fighter-bomber aircraft Year introduced: 1943 Total units produced: 12272 Top speed: 380 mph Armament: 12.7mm Browning M2 heavy machine guns, 20mm automatic cannons, Tiny Tim unguided rockets, conventional drop bombs, torpedoes F8F Bearcat Type: Carrierborne fighter / interceptor aircraft Year introduced: 1945 Total units produced: 1266 Top speed: 421 mph Armament: 12.7mm machine guns, 20mm cannons, rockets, conventional drop bombs F9F Cougar Type: Carrierborne fighter aircraft Year introduced: 1952 Total units produced: 1392 Top speed: 647 mph Armament: 20mm M2 cannons, air-to-surface rockets, Sidewinder missiles, conventional drop bombs F9F Panther Type: Carrierborne fighter aircraft Year introduced: 1949 Total units produced: 1382 Top speed: 545 mph Armament: 20mm M2 cannons, air-to-surface rockets N-3PB Nomad Type: Reconnaissance / bomber floatplane Year introduced: 1941 Total units produced: 24 Top speed: 257 mph Armament: 12.7mm heavy machine guns, 7.62mm machine guns, conventional drop bombs Orbital ATK AC-208 Eliminator Type: Close-air support / reconnaissance aircraft Year introduced: 2008 Total units produced: 50 Top speed: 214 mph Armament: Hellfire air-to-surface missiles, rocket pods P-61 / F-61 Black Widow Type: Night fighter / reconnaissance aircraft Year introduced: 1943 Total units produced: 742 Top speed: 366 mph Armament: 12.7mm Browning M2 heavy machine guns, 20mm Hispano M2 automatic cannons, unguided aerial rockets, precision-guided bombs S-2 Tacker (S2F) Type: Anti-submarine warfare aircraft Year introduced: 1954 Total units produced: 1284 Top speed: 280 mph Armament: Torpedoes, depth charges, naval mines, rockets Want to Retire Early?

These 25 Countries Are Exporting the Most Weapons
- When it comes to military spending, the United States has by far the largest budget, overtaking the next nine countries combined. The U.S. is also, by far, the world’s largest arms exporter, supplying weapons to over 110 countries worldwide, according to Stockholm International Peace Research Institute. U.S. arms exports actually rose 17% between 2014–18 and 2019–23. Russia’s exports, meanwhile, fell by more than half (–53%) over that time. With this drop, Russia, fell from the world’s second largest arms exporter to third. France’s exports, on the other hand, grew by 47% as it climbed to becoming the second largest arms exporter worldwide. Using SIPRI’s databases, 24/7 Wall St. identified the 25 countries that are the largest exporters of arms. Countries are ranked on the value of their arms exports as a share of all arms exports globally from 2019 to 2023. The United States, France, and Russia alone account for 63.2% of all global arms exports. Who do the largest arms exporter supply their weapons to? This largely depends on global alliances. For example, Iran supplies nearly 75% of its arms exports to Russia and another 7.4% to the Houthi rebels in Yemen. Russia, meanwhile, supplies its arms mainly to India and China (55% combined), while China’s largest recipient (61%) is Pakistan. The U.S. arms exports are more dispersed, though a significant 15% go to Saudi Arabia. France, too, has India as its largest customer with 29% of arms exports going there. Many of the highest ranking countries on this list are home to some of the world’s largest defense contractors. The United States is home to the five largest defense contractors in the world, including Lockheed-Martin, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman. (Here are The 25 Companies Making Billions Building the World’s Weapons.) Why Are We Covering This While it may not seem so given the rising global tensions in recent years, global arms transfers actually slightly declined from 2014–18 to 2019–23. This may change next year, of course. Regardless, it is important to see how the global political climate is affecting the global arms trade. 25.

Sanmina CEO Liebel leaves company after less than 11 months in the role
- Sanmina Corp. said Monday that Chief Executive Hartmut Liebel is leaving the company, effective immediately, after less than 11 months in the role. The electronics manufacturing services company said Jure Sola, the company's co-founder and executive chairman, will reassume the role of CEO and chairman. The company did not provide a reason for Liebel leaving the company, after who had become CEO on Sept. 30, 2019. With the ongoing pandemic and uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment, we are confident that Jure's four decades of experience will be instrumental in the company's ongoing success," said Lead Independent Director Jackie Ward. Separately, Sanmina said it plans to organize into three business segments--Integrted Manufacturing Solutions, SCI (defense products and systems) and Components Technology -- as part of its focus on maximizing shareholder value. The stock, which slipped 0.3% in premarket trading, has shed 13.3% year to date through Friday, while the S&P 500 has gained 4.4%.

Intelsat, Northrop Successfully Launch Galaxy 30 Satellite
- Intelsat (INTEQ) and Northrop Grumman (NOC) have successfully launched Galaxy 30, a geosynchronous communications satellite that will provide high-performance television distribution service to Intelsat’s North American customers.The Northrop Grumman-manufactured Galaxy 30 and Mission Extension Vehicle 2 (MEV-2) launched on the Arianespace Ariane 5 rocket from the Guiana Space Center at 6:04 p.m. EDT. It separated from the rocket at 6:31 p.m. EDT, and Intelsat confirmed its signal acquisition at 7:02 p.m. EDT.This marks the first satellite in Intelsat’s Galaxy fleet refresh plan and will replace Galaxy 14 once it is in service in early 2021.“With C-, Ku-, Ka- and L-band capabilities, Galaxy 30 is the first four-frequency Intelsat satellite. In addition to serving Intelsat’s media business customers, Galaxy 30 will also offer broadband, mobility and network services to Intelsat mobile network operator, enterprise and government customers in North America. The new satellite is also carrying a U.S. Federal Aviation Administration hosted payload for Leidos” Intelsat wrote.Galaxy 30 will help advance Intelsat’s U.S. C-band spectrum transition plan, which is accelerating America’s path to 5G, the company said, adding that it will not seek any reimbursement from the FCC for the launch or relocation.“Intelsat was proud to partner with Northrop Grumman earlier this year to pioneer the future of in-space servicing with MEV-1 and our Intelsat 901 satellite. We’re looking forward to this next exciting servicing mission with Intelsat 10-02” stated Intelsat CEO Stephen Spengler.MEV-2 is scheduled to dock with Intelsat 10-02 in 2021, providing it with five additional years of high-performance life. Intelsat 10-02 delivers media distribution and broadband services to customers across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and South America.Shares in Northrop are flat year-to-date and the stock shows a cautiously optimistic Moderate Buy analyst consensus. That’s based on 5 recent buy ratings vs 4 hold ratings. Meanwhile the average analyst price target indicates 13% upside potential from current levels.“Q2 performance reminded us of the reason for our Buy rating” cheered Jefferies analyst Sheila Kahyaoglu on August 2. Her buy rating comes with a $375 price target (10% upside potential).“With spotty organic growth across primes, 5% was respectable as was the 4% EBIT growth. This was coupled with backlog up 8%, driven by a 48% increase for Space since year-end” the analyst told investors. She believes space should continue to lead growth, with revenue expanding at an estimated 10% CAGR over the next three years.

These Loser Stocks Deserve a Lot More Love
- (Bloomberg Opinion) -- Add the lackluster performance of defense stocks to the long list of puzzling inequities in the pandemic stock market. A custom basket of top U.S. defense contractors within the S&P 500 Index is down about 20% for the year, even as the broader benchmark pushed into the green this week. Even excluding Boeing Co., whose commercial aerospace travails are more of a focus for investors, the group is still down about 16%. That’s significantly worse than the performance for S&P 500 railroads, restaurants, foot-wear makers and soft-drink companies, all of which are more immediately exposed to the volatility of economic reopenings and behavioral shifts than makers of missiles, fighter jets and radar systems that rely on government contracts sealed years earlier. Lockheed Martin Corp., which reported second-quarter earnings on Tuesday, displayed the sector's resilience amid the pandemic upheaval. Earnings, sales and cash flow were all higher than the year-earlier period, with cash balances helped in part by accelerated progress payments from the Department of Defense that were then passed on to suppliers. At a time when most companies are hesitant to make any concrete predictions about the immediate future, Lockheed touted a record $150.3 billion backlog and actually raised its guidance on all fronts. And yet even after a respectable 2.6% gain on Tuesday's earnings report, Lockheed still trades at roughly 14 times its estimated earnings in 2021. The valuation discount to the broader S&P 500 is just shy of the widest spread in at least five years.Fellow defense contractors Raytheon Technologies Corp., General Dynamics Corp. and Northrop Grumman Corp. are scheduled to report results next week, as is Boeing.The reason for the defense sector’s underperformance appears multi-fold. For one, defense contractors don’t really fit with the technology-focused bent of the recent upswing in stocks and because their business didn’t crash and burn as much as many others did, there’s less room for that mythical, V-shaped recovery many still hope will occur. Second, as Congress debates injecting at least $1 trillion more in stimulus funds into the pandemic-stricken economy, the deficit is set to explode and the government will likely have to make up some of that spending elsewhere. The worry is that the U.S.’s gargantuan defense budget will be a prime target, particularly if former Vice President Joe Biden succeeds in unseating President Donald Trump in this year's presidential election.Any hit to defense spending isn’t likely to be as bad as what’s suggested by current valuations, though. While the deficit may put a cap on defense spending growth, the volatile geopolitical situation likely creates a floor. Historically, there's a weak correlation between deficit-related economic variables — whether that’s business cycles or changes in tax policy — and defense spending, Melius Research analyst Carter Copeland noted on a call earlier this month. Material shifts in budgets tend to be more a reflection of changes in national-security posture, he said, such as President Barack Obama’s withdrawal from Iraq or President Ronald Reagan’s more aggressive stance toward Russia during the early part of his administration. And there’s not much room for that kind of rethink right now, regardless of who gets elected. Tensions are still running hot with the likes of Iran and North Korea, while Russia and China have taken increasingly aggressive postures. Copeland pointed to a Gallup poll published in March that found half of Americans view the current level of defense spending as “about right,” the highest percentage in more than 50 years. Asked on Lockheed’s earnings call Tuesday if the defense budget would decline, new CEO Jim Taiclet declined to “speculate on the behavior of people that are going to make independent decisions that we can’t predict,” but said the company’s divisions are planning for a wide range of scenarios to be prepared for any outcome. He made a point of citing a downturn as a potential opportunity for Lockheed to take advantage of depressed asset prices through strategic M&A. At the end of the day, “sentiment is fickle, while fundamentals are facts,” Vertical Research Partners analyst Rob Stallard wrote in a report last month. “While we think defense companies can’t do much about the slowing Department of Defense budget outlook, they are still growing and have good visibility, good cash flow and good valuations.” What more do you want?
