COVID-19 Impact:
Suspended Assembly and Delivery of Defense Equipment to DwindleMarket
The defense industry has experienced a plunged demand for militaryequipment during the pandemic. Moreover, the diminished production rate of tierthree and tier four suppliers has slowed down the availability of electronic warfare, thus delaying the delivery of equipment. As per the study conducted by Fortune Business Insights, the ministry of defense will cover payments only for existing contracts that are already under execution, thus eliminating the need for new procurement. However, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) will continue to buy products, issue contracts, and accelerate payments to help small and large businesses amid the global pandemic.
