Steady M&A Activity: Budget and geopolitical factors kept ADG demand resilient.

VC-Based Disruptors: across multiple defense subsegments (autonomy, space, AI, electronic warfare) continue to move at an accelerated pace, providing intense competitive pressure for existing incumbent systems integrators.
