General Dynamics Corp.

General Dynamics is a global aerospace and defence company. It designs, engineers and builds business jets, submarines and warships, land combat vehicles, weapon systems and munitions, and sells technology products and services. The company consists of 10 business units organised into four operating segments: Aerospace, Marine Systems, Combat Systems and Technologies, the last three of which it calls its defence segments. Each business unit runs its own strategy and results, leaving a small corporate function that sets overall strategy and allocates capital.

Aerospace

Gulfstream and Jet Aviation, covering business jet manufacture, aircraft repair, customer support and custom completions. The company acquired Gulfstream more than 25 years ago and has since invested in research and development, manufacturing facilities and a global maintenance and support network. Gulfstream aircraft in service hold more than 350 city-pair speed records, including the National Aeronautic Association's polar and westbound around-the-world records. The newest aircraft is the G800, an ultra-long-range, ultra-large-cabin model that entered service in 2025 after Federal Aviation Administration certification in April 2025, with a range of 8,200 nautical miles.

Marine Systems

Three business units: Electric Boat, Bath Iron Works and NASSCO. Electric Boat is the prime contractor and lead shipyard on all United States Navy nuclear-powered submarine programmes, responsible for design and engineering and heading construction of both Columbia-class ballistic-missile submarines and Virginia-class attack submarines. The Columbia class is a 12-boat programme carrying the highest rating under the government's Defense Priorities and Allocations System, with the first boat expected to deliver in 2028 to begin replacing the Ohio class. The segment also designs and builds surface combatants and auxiliary ships and provides maintenance, modernisation and lifecycle support for Navy ships, and it has built ocean-going Jones Act ships for commercial customers. Facilities, workforce and supply chain have all been expanded to meet the Navy's increased demand.

Combat Systems

Three business units: Land Systems, European Land Systems and Ordnance and Tactical Systems. The segment makes and integrates wheeled and tracked combat vehicles, weapon systems, energetics and munitions. Land Systems is the sole-source producer of the Abrams main battle tank and another product central to the United States Army. The approach described is modernising legacy platforms and adding new capability, partnering with commercial technology companies, building future platforms on digital open-architecture frameworks and upgrading manufacturing so systems can be changed quickly.

Technologies

Two business units, Information Technology and Mission Systems, selling to military, intelligence, federal civilian and state customers. The portfolio covers technology solutions and mission-support services, mobile communication, computers, command-and-control and cyber mission systems, and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance. The two share a customer base and go to market together where it suits. The segment's workforce is approximately 40,000 people, including technologists, engineers, mission experts and cleared personnel.

Who pays, and how

In 2025, 68% of consolidated revenue came from the United States government, 15% from United States commercial customers, 8% from non-U.S. government customers and 9% from non-U.S. commercial customers. The primary customer is the Department of War, with other business from the intelligence community and other departments and agencies, and sales to foreign governments also run through the Foreign Military Sales programme, where the United States government contracts and pays and carries the collection risk. Production contracts are mostly fixed-price, while research, engineering, repair, maintenance and other services are typically cost-reimbursement or time-and-materials. Of United States government revenue, fixed-price contracts were 51% in 2025, cost-reimbursement 44% and time-and-materials 5%. Most commercial sales are business jets and related services, and approximately 38% of the Aerospace segment's aircraft backlog at 31 December 2025 came from customers outside North America.

People

Approximately 84% of employees are based in the United States, with the remaining 16% in over 65 countries, concentrated in North America and Europe. Approximately 23% of the workforce is covered by collective bargaining agreements. Of United States employees, 20% are veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces. More than 18,700 people were hired during 2025.

Each quarter as filed, linked to its filing.
Read more* The fourth quarter is the full year less the first three quarters, because the company files the year and not the quarter on its own. A fourth quarter's EPS, and its diluted share count where shown, are from the company's results press release for that quarter, checked against the company's filed figures or a second data source. Money is in $ million as the company files it, or in $ billion by the switch above the tables; per share figures and the share count are as they are. Free cash flow is operating cash flow less capital expenditure; the effective tax rate is income tax over pre-tax income; margins are the line over revenue. Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue, and operating income is revenue less the company's own total costs, where the statement does not print those lines. Cash flow lines filed year to date are the difference between two filings. Shares outstanding are at the period end where the balance sheet tags them, otherwise the count on the filing's cover page. A derived fourth-quarter EPS is left blank when a split in the year makes the arithmetic meaningless.

At the fiscal year end; the TTM column is the latest quarter end.
Read moreBoth totals are the company's own. Other liabilities is the filed total less the rows above it: payables, deferred revenue, taxes, borrowings the rows above do not carry and the rest; other assets is the same on the other side. Investments add the current and non-current lines as filed. Debt is the company's own stated total where it files one, otherwise its long-term debt with the current maturities, never parts added together. A row is left blank in a year where the lines shown overlap and the remainder would fall below nil.
