About this report
The war in Ukraine has accelerated a structural transformation in the logic of power, revealing that military capability now depends as much on industrial resilience as on tactical or technological sophistication. The conflict has demonstrated that superiority on the battlefield cannot be separated from the integrity and responsiveness of the underlying production chains that sustain it.
At the same time, the growing rivalry between the United States and China has turned supply chains into a strategic frontier, where control over semiconductors, critical materials, and dual-use technologies determines the balance of power.
Key questions this report answers
- Why has the war in Ukraine shown that military capability now depends as much on industrial resilience as on tactical or technological sophistication?
- How does control over semiconductors, critical materials and dual-use technologies determine the balance of power in US-China rivalry?
- In what sense have defence supply chains become a strategic frontier rather than a back-office logistics concern?
- What should states and manufacturers do to secure the responsiveness and integrity of production chains that sustain battlefield superiority?
Who it's for
Strategy, corporate-development and investment teams that need an ecosystem-level view — budgets, industrial capacity and technology landscapes — before committing capital or capacity.
