Defense-tech funding rounds

This tracker holds 5 defense-technology securities offerings, 5 of which state an amount sold. Those 5 account for $932,252,497 in securities sold. 4 of the 5 also state the total amount the issuer authorised, which is a different number and is kept in its own column: collapsing the two is how a $347,799,797 sale becomes a “$600 million round”. The largest single offering here is Saronic Technologies, Inc., at $347,799,797 sold. First-sale dates run from 2023-09-13 to 2025-05-09. Every figure is read from the issuer’s own filing and stored with the element it came from, quoted verbatim, so any row on this page can be checked against the document behind it. The Round column is empty on every row, and that is the finding rather than a gap: Form D carries no round label, and an inferred one published as structured data is a fabricated fact with a long half-life. Amendments restate rather than add, so a filing superseded by a later one is held out of this table instead of being summed into it. The rules that decide what may be published are on the methodology page.

Military expenditure: the world, Ukraine and NATO

World Bank data for 2024 puts Ukraine at #8 among the world’s largest military spenders by current US dollars, and at 34.5% of its own GDP – the highest share of any country in this top 15. The chart above plots the top 15 by expenditure; the table beneath it carries the same 15 rows plus each one’s share of GDP. A second chart tracks Ukraine’s own military expenditure from 2013 to 2024, in current US dollars. A separate table re-keys NATO’s own published defence-expenditure report: each ally’s 2025 estimate as a share of GDP, credited to NATO and never mirrored from its PDF. None of these figures is read from SIPRI directly – SIPRI’s own terms require a negotiated royalty for commercial use, so this page routes the same underlying series through the World Bank’s CC BY 4.0 distribution instead. The rules that decide what may be published are on the methodology page.
