## Prediction

Within seven days, decisions and signaling from the NATO summit in Ankara, combined with the visible effectiveness and demand for air defense systems in Ukraine and the Gulf, will translate into new or expanded defense procurement plans, particularly for Patriot/PAC-3, SAMP/T, and integrated air defense networks. European and some Asian allies will prioritize industrial capacity for missile defense and long-range fires, benefiting key defense contractors and spurring joint production arrangements. This acceleration will tighten supply for third countries and deepen the emerging war-ready transatlantic defense industrial base. Confirmation would be new contracts, MoUs, or budget announcements focused on air and missile defense; denial would be absence of concrete follow-through despite rhetoric.

## Drivers

- Emerging trend: NATO Ankara summit driving shift to war-ready transatlantic defense base
- Announcement of PAC-3 package for Ukraine
- Iran’s missile and drone salvos highlighting missile threat globally
- Increased perceived vulnerability of bases and cities to missile and drone attacks
