Abstract

This study analyses the timing of acquisitions in B9 countries and shows the time lag that exists between investment and the ability to live up to the technology ordered. Delays in defence acquisitions are observed in the government decision-making and contract execution phases, highlighting the complexity of the procurement process. Despite significant investments, not all countries show an increase in defence capabilities. Acquisition of sophisticated systems appears to be the most time consuming, with significantly greater delays than for simpler systems.
