Bad Economy Drives Down American Arms Sales
NYT September 12, 2010
WASHINGTON - The global economic recession significantly pushed down
purchases of weapons last year to the lowest level since 2005, a new

The report to Congress concluded that the value of worldwide arms deals in
2009 was $57.5 billion, a drop of 8.5 percent from 2008.
