US-Israeli firm Covenant to build 1,000 cruise missiles annually in Germany

Covenant, a US-Israeli defense company, will produce Anthem cruise missiles at a new facility in Saxony, Germany, starting with 1,000 units in the first year and scaling to 5,000 annually. This marks a significant expansion of European missile production capacity, likely tied to NATO rearmament and Ukraine conflict replenishment. The move signals deepening defense-industrial integration and could affect regional security dynamics.
