Context

Indra Group is preparing a network of three military vehicle factories in northern Spain with operations extending to Portugal. The company secured over €7.6 billion in defense contracts last year through consortiums, now pursuing new contracts totaling approximately €5 billion. This expansion aligns with broader industrial plans to concentrate production in the north, develop drones in the center, and strengthen radar production in the south.

Limitations
