Abstract

Institutionalization of the arrangements with an increase in cross-national teaming for weapons is areas where future foreign sales may have a profound effect on the United States (US) defence industry. The US defence industry is a large industry, but not dominant in the context of the whole economy. Peace gave way to the Cold War, as the United States and the Soviet Union confronted each other in Europe and elsewhere.
