Western arms companies failed to ramp up production capacity in 2022 due to Ukraine war, watchdog group says
FILE - A Ukrainian serviceman fires an NLAW anti-tank weapon during an exercise in the Joint Forces Operation, in the Donetsk region, eastern Ukraine, Feb. 15, 2022. An independent watchdog says many Western arms companies failed to ramp up production in 2022 despite a strong increase in demand for weapons and military equipment. Labor shortages, soaring costs and supply chain disruptions were exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, or SIPRI. It said the arms revenue of the world’s 100 largest arms-producing and military services companies last year was $597 billion — a 3.5% drop from 2021. (AP Photo/Vadim Ghirda, File)

(FILES) This file photograph taken on June 2, 2015, shows the logo of US oil and gas giant ExxonMobil during the World Gas Conference exhibition in Paris. - Exxon Mobil closed the books on a terrible 2020 on February 2, 2021, reporting losses in the fourth-quarter and for the full year in the wake of lower oil prices with Covid-19. The big US oil company reported a fourth-quarter loss of $20.7 billion following huge write-offs. That took the company's loss for all of 2020 to $22.4 billion, compared with $14.3 billion in profits in 2019. Exxon Mobil also unveiled plans for additional spending cuts of $3 billion in annual expenses expected by 2023, its latest belt-tightening move amid the industry downturn.
