The nation’s efforts to strengthen its forces with enhanced capabilities, equipment, technology and training will also affect expenditure.

Focus on bolstering internal security systems, platforms, surveillance systems, and joint military training will be a significant reason for budget growth during the forecast period.

A rise in defence imports is also anticipated.

The Chilean Ministry of Defense (MoD) supports joint ventures and technology-sharing agreements to allow companies to improve their capabilities and boost diplomatic relations between the nations.

This encourages original equipment manufacturers (OEM) from other countries to enter Chile’s defence market.
