Determining the defence industrial base / Dunne, Paul; García-Alonso, María del Carmen; Levine, Paul; Smith, Ron   Journal Article
Smith, Ron Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2007.
Summary/Abstract This paper models the determination of the defence industrial base - the number of different military systems a country decides to maintain. High R&D costs means that few countries can afford to produce major weapons systems and the producers also import systems. Non-producers rely on imports and we assume their demand is driven by regional arms races. Military capability is determined by the number of systems and the quantity and quality of each. We examine how the defence industrial base is influenced by military expenditures, R&D costs, export controls, the nature of regional arms races and a variety of other factors.

Drivers of R&D investment in the defence industry: evidence from Spain / Estévez, Javier García; Baute, Elisa Trujillo   Journal Article
Baute, Elisa Trujillo Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract This paper analyses the main drivers of R&D investment in the Spanish defence sector at the firm level. In particular, we analyse the factors influencing the decision to innovate or not, and those that affect the relative amount of resources devoted to the innovative process. Using data from the Ministry of Defence and the balance sheets from over 650 companies from 2003 to 2008, a Heckman selection model is applied to account for the firm's decision to perform R&D investment (or not). Our estimation results show that for firms holding operations within the Spanish defence industry, both the long-term strategic decision on R&D engagement and the short-term decision of R&D investment were driven by the intensity of their participation in contracting with the Ministry of Defence; hence, the demand pull hypothesis is confirmed.
