Key Highlights
During the review period, French defense expenditure increased at a CAGR of XX.XX%, and, in 2010, valued US$XX.XX billion. The military modernization plans outlined in the French white paper on defense and national security, coupled with perceived terrorist threats and France’s status as the United Nations Security Council’s second-largest contributor to UN peacekeeping missions, stimulated defense expenditure during the review period. Such factors are expected to continue to fuel defense expenditure during the forecast period. As a result, and despite expected budget cuts during 2010–2013 to reduce the government’s fiscal deficit, the country’s defense budget is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX.XX% during the forecast period. With this growth expected to be accompanied by a higher growth in the general French economy, French defense expenditure as a percentage of GDP is expected to fall to XX.XX% by 2016, compared to XX.XX% in 2010.
The capital expenditure allocation of the defense budget, which stood at an average of XX.XX% during the review period, increased to XX.XX% in 2010 as a result of a military modernization program. Capital expenditure is expected to account for XX.XX% of the total defense budget in 2011, before stabilizing at an average of XX.XX% during 2012–2016. Common services such as health care expenses and defense infrastructure facilities accounted for the highest budget allocation during the review period, with an average of XX.XX% when other expenses such as research and development and pensions are excluded. During the forecast period, the French Army is expected to receive an average defense budget allocation of XX.XX%, followed by the Air Force with an average of XX.XX% and the Navy with an average of XX.XX%.
Key opportunities for the country’s defense industry are expected in areas such as armored vehicles, amphibious ships, and submarines with nuclear missile transportation capabilities. The French aerial defense capabilities are expected to be improved through the procurement of a new fleet of fighter aircraft, UAVs and the upgrade of its existing aircraft. The country is also expected to invest in advanced technology for command control and communication systems.
