The U.S. manufacturing sector plays a central role in the economy, accounting for 20% of U.S. capital investment, 60% of the nation's exports and 70% of business R&D. Overall, the sector's market size, measured in terms of revenue is worth roughly $6 trillion, making it a major industry to do business with. So which U.S. states are the biggest for manufacturing? This article will explore the nation's top manufacturing states, measured by number of employees, based on MNI's database of 400,000 U.S. manufacturing companies.

Between 1914 and 1969, weekly wages in manufacturing industries in the United States grew by a factor of 12. In the first half of the century, the most significant periods of increase came during the World Wars, as manufacturing industries were at the core of the war effort. However, wages then fell sharply after both World Wars, due to post-war recessions and oversaturation of the job market as soldiers returned home. Interwar period Wage growth during the interwar period was often stagnant, despite the significant economic growth during the Roarin' 20s, and manufacturing wages remained steady at around 24 dollars from 1923 to 1929. This was, again, due to oversaturation of the job market, as employment in the agricultural sector declined due to mechanization and many rural workers flocked to industrial cities in search of employment. The Great Depression then saw the largest and most prolonged period of decline in manufacturing wages. From September 1929 to March 1933, weekly wages fell from 24 dollars to below 15 dollars, and it would take another four years for them to return to pre-Depression levels. Postwar prosperity After the 1945 Recession, the decades that followed the Second World War then saw consistent growth in manufacturing wages in almost every year, as the U.S. cemented itself as the foremost economic power in the world. This period is sometimes referred to as the Golden Age of Capitalism, and the U.S. strengthened its economic presence in Western Europe and other OECD countries, while expanding its political and military presence across Asia. Manufacturing and exports played a major role in the U.S.' economic growth in this period, and wages grew from roughly 40 dollars per week in 1945 to more than 120 dollars by the late 1960s.

In 2023, Lockheed Martin was the leading armament manufacturer in the world. The defense company from the United States had a defense revenue of ** billion U.S. dollars that year.

Global military spending has been on a steady increase since the early 2000’s, going from **** billion U.S. dollars in 2001 to **** billion U.S. dollars in 2023, due to factors such as 9/11, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and the current war in Ukraine. In 2023, the United States was overwhelmingly the country with the highest defense spending, totaling *** billion U.S. dollars. By comparison, China followed with *** billion U.S. dollars in defense spending.

A defense contractor is a business organization or individual that provides products or services to a military or intelligence department of a government. Products typically include military or civilian aircraft, ships, vehicles, weaponry, and electronic systems, while services can include logistics, technical support and training, communications support, and engineering support in cooperation with the government.

Security contractors do not generally provide direct support of military operations. Under the 1949 Geneva Conventions, military contractors engaged in direct support of military operations may be legitimate targets of military interrogation.

In the United States, defense contracting has taken an increasingly larger role. In 2009, the Department of Defense spent nearly $316 billion on contracts. Contractors have assumed a much larger on-the-ground presence during American conflicts: during the 1991 Gulf War the ratio of uniformed military to contractors was about 50 to 1, while during the first four years of the Iraq War the U.S. hired over 190,000 contractors, surpassing the total American military presence even during the 2007 Iraq surge and 23 times greater than other allied military personnel numbers. In Afghanistan, the presence of almost 100,000 contractors has resulted in a near 1-to-1 ratio with military personnel.The surge in spending on defense services contractors that began in 2001 came to a halt in 2009, leading to the Better Buying Power initiative of 2010.

Recent fluctuations in US federal defense funding have created volatility within the defense industry. The US, as the largest defense market, significantly influences global trends. Though defense funding has generally risen, budget cuts in 2021 and 2022, partly due to the US's withdrawal from Afghanistan and a focus on pandemic response, resulted in industry declines. Despite slower growth in aircraft demand, rising geopolitical tensions and conflicts like those in Ukraine and the Middle East have driven significant increases in missile demand, resulting in overall industry growth. Missiles, due to their immediate and versatile response capabilities, have outpaced growth in aircraft demand. Overall, the industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 2.7%, reaching $250.8 billion by 2024, with an anticipated 5.2% increase in 2024 alone. The war in Ukraine since February 2022 led to a surge in arms exports to Ukraine, although it still accounts for a minor percentage of global arms imports. Military aid to Ukraine includes air defense systems and precision-guided missiles from major donors like the US and Germany. Similarly, the Israel-Hamas war, initiated by Hamas’ attack on Israel in October 2023, increased arms transfers to the Middle East. The US and Germany have expedited pre-existing contracts, delivering precision-guided munitions, artillery and medical supplies to Israel, underscoring the ongoing demand for defense resources in response to regional conflicts. The industry is expected to grow due to rising global tensions. Militaries around the world are developing advanced missile systems, including Long-Range Anti-Ship Missiles (LRASM) and innovations for stealth fighters such as the F-35 and Next Generation Air Dominance aircraft. Persistent global tensions, especially in regions like Ukraine, the South Pacific and Africa, will drive continued demand and sustained profit for missile systems. Additionally, integrating artificial intelligence into military technologies is set to revolutionize capabilities by enhancing autonomous flight, accurate targeting and real-time data analysis for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. Ultimately, the industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 2.0%, reaching $276.6 billion by 2029.

European military fighting vehicle manufacturers suffer from intense competition from US manufacturers, representing a considerable proportion of imports. Nonetheless, Germany and France generate a substantial proportion of armoured vehicles under the industry's most significant manufacturer, KMW+NEXTER Defense Systems NV. Manufacturers rely on defence spending across Europe and non-NATO members to boost new order volumes. According to the European Commission, general government expenditure in the EU on defence amounted to 1.3 % of GDP in 2021. However, this figure is rising in response to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, boosting revenue prospects. Over the five years through 2024, industry revenue is forecast to drop at a compound annual rate of 4.7% to €5.4 billion. The COVID-19 outbreak caused revenue to plunge as factories temporarily closed amid lockdown measures, resulting in sub-optimal production levels throughout 2020. Industry revenue failed to fully rebound over 2021 and 2022, mainly because of supply-chain disruption, inflating input prices and restricting output volumes. The Russia-Ukraine conflict also invited a flood of armoured vehicle imports from the US, limiting European manufacturers' potential to capitalise on greater demand. In 2024, industry revenue is forecast to drop by 3.2%, thanks to intense competition from US manufacturers.
Over the five years through 2029, industry revenue is expected to expand at a compound annual rate of 3% to reach €6.2 billion. Increased geopolitical tension, namely the Russia-Ukraine and Israeli conflicts, will boost government spending on defence and armoured military vehicles. In February 2023, the UK government outlined plans to spend £242 billion on defence equipment procurement over the next 10 years, including £17.4 billion on land equipment. A progressive and strategic expansion in the European defence budget and the launch of infantry support projects will boost demand for military vehicles and fuel innovation.

In 2023, Lockheed Martin was the world's largest arms-producing and military services company, with arms sales amounting to over 60 billion U.S. dollars. Arms sales constituted 90 percent of total company sales in that year. RTX and Boeing followed on the places behind. Except for three European companies and one Russian, all the largest arms dealers in the world were either based in the Untied States or China. Worsening security landscape drives global military spending With the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, and rising tensions between China and the United States, particularly concerning the status of Taiwan, global military spending reached new records in 2023. Whereas global military spending remained stable during the 2010s, it has increased annually the last years. Leading military spenders The United States is, by far, the largest military spender in the world, spending three times as much as China in second. In terms of share of the gross domestic product (GDP), Ukraine is the leading military spender, which must be seen in light of its war with Russia.

As of 2023, in the aerospace and defense manufacturing industry, Boeing outperformed all competitors, including its closest rivals, Airbus, Raytheon Technologies, and Lockheed Martin, with a revenue of roughly **** million U.S. dollars.

Analysis of ‘Veteran Employment Outcomes’ provided by Analyst-2 (analyst-2.ai), based on source dataset retrieved from https://www.kaggle.com/mpwolke/cusersmarildownloadsvetcsv on 28 January 2022.

--- Dataset description provided by original source is as follows ---

Context

Veteran Employment Outcomes (VEO) are new experimental U.S. Census Bureau statistics on labor market outcomes for recently discharged Army veterans. These statistics are tabulated by military specialization, service characteristics, employer industry (if employed), and veteran demographics. They are generated by matching service member information with a national database of jobs, using state-of-the-art confidentiality protection mechanisms to protect the underlying data.

https://lehd.ces.census.gov/data/veo_experimental.html

Content

"The VEO are made possible through data sharing partnerships between the U.S. Army, State Labor Market Information offices, and the U.S. Census Bureau. VEO data are currently available at the state and national level."

"Veteran Employment Outcomes (VEO) are experimental tabulations developed by the Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) program in collaboration with the U.S. Army and state agencies. VEO data provides earnings and employment outcomes for Army veterans by rank and military occupation, as well as veteran and employer characteristics. VEO are currently released as a research data product in "experimental" form."

"The source of veteran information in the VEO is administrative record data from the Department of the Army, Office of Economic and Manpower Analysis. This personnel data contains fields on service member characteristics, such as service start and end dates, occupation, pay grade, characteristics at entry (e.g. education and test scores), and demographic characteristics (e.g. sex, race, and ethnicity). Once service member records are transferred to the Census Bureau, personally-identifying information is stripped and veterans are assigned a Protected Identification Key (PIK) that allows for them to be matched with their employment outcomes in Census Bureau jobs data."

Earnings, and Employment Concepts

Earnings "Earnings are total annual earnings for attached workers from all jobs, converted to 2018 dollars using the CPI-U. For the annual earnings tabulations, we impose two labor force attachment restrictions. First, we drop veterans who earn less than the annual equivalent of full-time work at the prevailing federal minimum wage. Additionally, we drop veterans with two or more quarters with no earnings in the reference year. These workers are likely to be either marginally attached to the labor force or employed in non-covered employment."

Employment

"While most VEO tabulations include earnings from all jobs, tabulations by employer characteristics only consider the veteran's main job for that year. Main jobs are defined as the job for which veterans had the highest earnings in the reference year. To attach employer characteristics to that job, we assign industry and geography from the highest earnings quarter with that employer in the year. For multi-establishment firms, we use LEHD unit-to-worker imputations to assign workers to establishments, and then assign industry and geography."
