<\/div>\n

Czech defence group CSG has secured a nearly \u20ac300 million ($353.97 million) contract to supply artillery ammunition to a European customer, underscoring the sharp rise in global military demand.<\/p>\n

The latest agreement <\/a>comes months after the company disclosed a separate deal in February to deliver large-calibre ammunition worth hundreds of millions of euros to a Western European country.<\/p>\n

Strong deal pipeline highlights global demand<\/h2>\n

CSG said its recent contracts reflect its ability to respond to increasing demand from armed forces globally.<\/p>\n

The company pointed to a steady flow of orders across multiple regions as defence spending continues to rise.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, the group also announced contracts worth $2.5 billion to supply air defence systems in Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n

These agreements further underline the company\u2019s expanding presence in international defence markets.<\/p>\n

New counter-drone technology unveiled<\/h2>\n

In a separate statement, <\/a>CSG said its Fiocchi unit had introduced new counter-drone ammunition designed for standard-issue firearms.<\/p>\n

The company said the technology provides militaries with a last-line defence capability against the growing threat posed by drones.<\/p>\n

The development comes as armed forces increasingly seek cost-effective solutions to counter unmanned aerial systems.<\/p>\n

Growth strategy backed by market expansion<\/h2>\n

CSG has been actively expanding its operations following a record stock offering in January.<\/p>\n

The company completed what it described as the largest defence sector listing on record, aiming to capitalise on rising global military expenditure after Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n

The proceeds from the offering are being used to scale production capacity and strengthen its position in the defence industry.<\/p>\n

Profit growth and revenue outlook<\/h2>\n

For 2025, CSG reported a 28% rise in annual profit, supported by strong demand in its defence systems division.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, the company expects revenue to increase to between \u20ac7.4 billion and \u20ac7.6 billion, compared with \u20ac6.7 billion reported in 2025.<\/p>\n

Middle East conflict and Hormuz risks cloud outlook
<\/h2>\n

The surge in defence demand comes as global policymakers warn of broader economic risks linked to the Middle East conflict.<\/p>\n

Finance ministers from more than 10 countries said the ongoing crisis<\/a>would continue to weigh on global growth, inflation, and financial markets.<\/p>\n

The Strait of Hormuz<\/a> remains a critical route for global energy shipments. <\/p>\n

Germany has already flagged economic strain. <\/p>\n

Finance Minister Lars Klingbeil said, “But what we can already see now is that this war is also harming us in Germany in terms of \u200ceconomic \u2060growth.”<\/p>\n

The ministers also stressed fiscal discipline. <\/p>\n

The strategic waterway remains a critical chokepoint for global energy supplies, and any disruption has the potential to trigger wider military and economic consequences. <\/p>\n

As a result, governments are increasingly prioritising defence preparedness, further supporting demand for ammunition and military systems.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
