| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |

| NOC | The need to rebuild US strike-missile inventory supports future procurement and production revenue expectations. | Up1-3m | Reuters reported multiple years may be required to restore US magazine depth. |
| TLT | Evidence of constrained US military readiness can temper expectations for prolonged high-intensity operations and support defensive duration demand. | Up1-5d | Military sources said depleted inventories could limit the depth of future operations, although the report did not quantify a fiscal or rate effect. |
