This is the largest contract ever given to HII's Mission Technologies division.The market reacted positively to this news, with HII’s share price increasing by 1.4% from Dec. 5, the date of the announcement of the contract.\nWhat’s Favoring HII Stock?\nRising geopolitical tensions globally have prompted countries to enhance their military capabilities, including electronic warfare (EW) systems, by increasing spending on the production and modernization of varied programs. The demand for the EW systems has been on the rise over the past decade driven by their ability to jam radar and communication systems of enemies, which protects aircraft from detection, ensuring safer air operations for strikes and reconnaissance missions.The Mordor Intelligence firm predicts the Electronic Warfare market will witness a CAGR of 5.1% during the 2024-2029 period. This should create ample growth opportunities for advanced EW solution providers like HII, as it offers state-of-the-art EW solutions across multiple domains, including air, sea, land and cyber.HII is well-positioned to support multi-domain operations by using its expertise in systems integration and cyber-electromagnetic activities, which combine EW with cyber and communications technology. This method improves the ability to identify and neutralize adversary systems across several battlefields, providing critical benefits in modern warfare. Such EW solutions must have been ushering in solid order flow for HII, like the latest one, which, in turn, should boost its future revenues.\nOpportunities for Other Defense Stocks\nOther defense contractors that are expected to reap the benefits of the expanding EW market are listed below:L3Harris Technologies LHX: It manufactures electronic warfare systems like the AN/ALQ-214 (IDECM) F/A-18 Countermeasure System, Viper Shield AN/ALQ-254(V)1 All-digital Electronic Warfare Suite, CREW Vehicle Receiver/Jammer and The Next Generation Jammer-Low Band.L3Harris has a long-term (three to five years) earnings growth rate of 9.2%.
