BAE Systems sales jump 11% to £12bn in first six months of year , and a further jump is expected as more are registered.

Military spending around the world has been on the rise since Russian President Vladimir Putin attacked Ukraine.

In May, BAE was awarded a £1.8bn contract to produce 246 CV90 armored vehicles for the Czech Republic.

Since the start of the conflict in Ukraine, investor reluctance to buy shares in defense companies has diminished, Mr. Woodburn said.
