General Dynamics Inks 500 Million Scout Contract

The Government has signed off the 500 million Scout reconnaissance vehicle deal agreed with General Dynamics before the election. The Ascod contract, for the design and manufacture of seven prototype armored vehicles, was one of more than 10 billion-worth of military deals penciled in by the Labor government and now facing review. Although the planned strategic defense review could affect the size of the full Ascod programme, the demonstrator phase will definitely go ahead. Once the prototypes are delivered in 2013, the Army will decide whether to go into full production. The programme could run to 1,200 vehicles worth up to 4 billion.

Quote: The same dynamic holds for other leading industry firms, like Lockheed Martin, Raytheon and General Dynamics. Raytheon, for example, has seen its net profit more than double since 2005, while the stock is up just 20% over the five years. While it may be true that the high-growth-rate days are over for these multi-billion-dollar defense conglomerates, it certainly isn't a decaying industry. A business like Northrop, through a combination of share buybacks and top-line growth of 3-5% a year, looks...
