  • The planned German ATACMS production line would establish a European manufacturing base for a major missile system, with initial revenue expected in 2028.
  • Rheinmetall’s forecast of strong demand for at least 15 years points to a potentially durable missile-production pipeline rather than a short-term order cycle.
  • A Boxer deal expected by year-end would add another significant defense-program milestone for Rheinmetall.
