The United States defence economy is remarkable for a number of reasons - including sheer size. It receives a significant (albeit decreasing) share of GDP and has a significant international footprint. Its purpose is to provide the resources for national defence - against a set of complex and capable adversaries. The main players in the defence economy are households, and the Federal Government.

This Element focuses primarily on interactions between government and industrial suppliers within the institutional peculiarities of the defence marketplace.
