The Military / Defense Industry comprises the production, sale, and service of commercial aircraft and is also dependent on the nation's need for military weapons and systems designed to operate on land, sea, and in the air.
The primary products are military hardware which include: Military aircraft (F-16 fighter jets to B-2 stealth bombers to combat helicopters), Warships (submarines, destroyers, aircraft carriers), Ground defense (tanks, APCs, and guns both big and small), Ammunition for all of the above (rockets, missiles, bullets, and cannon).
Health and Safety Hazards in the Military & Defense Industry are many, which include toxic and combustible dust.
