Defense Trade

Defense trade refers to the international sale and transfer of military equipment, technology, and services between countries. This includes weapons, military hardware, and related technology that are typically controlled to ensure national security and prevent misuse. Governments regulate defense trade through licensing and treaties to oversee exports, maintain strategic interests, and promote responsible handling of sensitive military items. It plays a crucial role in supporting alliances, modernizing armed forces, and addressing global security needs while balancing economic benefits and security considerations.
