The development of the situation in Russia and Ukraine has further exacerbated the factors of global instability. In the face of the uncertainty caused by competition among major powers, all countries have begun to strengthen their own armaments or increase their national defense budgets. A new round of arms race has begun, and it is expected that the purchase orders of China and foreign countries will increase significantly. This year is the “closing year” of state-owned enterprise reform. It can be found from the recent intensive announcements of repurchase, equity incentive plan and shareholding increase that the reform of military enterprises is accelerating and is expected to activate the vitality of military enterprises. Long term optimistic about the high prosperity of the industry under the demand for equipment upgrading during the 14th Five Year Plan period; From the perspective of usage, with the increase of actual training times, the loss of trainer aircraft and the replenishment of missile inventory are increased. We are optimistic about the aviation industry chain and the missile industry chain with high consumables. On the other hand, we are optimistic about the transfer and transformation of aerospace technology achievements to economy and society, the development of Beidou industrial chain under aerospace industry services and the Internet of things, and the development of special chips under the new round of digital currency reform.
