Pages : 35
Book Description
The French experience in restructuring its defense industry may offer some useful lessons for policymakers in other countries. Because France has been forced to confront problems of defense industrial overcapacity and budget constraints since the late 1980s, it began the restructuring process sooner than other countries. The French experience shows that a centralized defense procurement agency can facilitate strategic planning and coordinated action.

Publisher: Rand Corporation

Book Description
Since the early 1980s, a prominent and consistent conclusion drawn from research on China's defense-industrial complex has been that China's defense-production capabilities are rife with weaknesses and limitations. This study argues for an alternative approach: From the vantage point of 2005, it is time to shift the focus of current research to the gradual improvements in and the future potential of China's defense-industrial complex. The study found that China's defense sectors are designing and producing a wide range of increasingly advanced weapons that, in the short term, are relevant to a possible conflict over Taiwan but also to China's long-term military presence in Asia. Part of a larger RAND Project AIR FORCE study on Chinese military modernization, this study examines the current and future capabilities of China's defense industry. The goals of this study are to 1.
