Geopolitical & Supply-Shock Stress Engine
REAL-TIME EMBARGO IMPACTTrigger crises to test sovereign resilience: Foreign-dependent fleets stall under sanctions, while high domestic ToT absorb disruptions.
The Strategic Dilemma: Why build at home when foreign warships are faster and cheaper off-the-shelf? Brazil's decades of stalled naval plans (e.g. 14-year build of single Corvette Barroso) proved that foreign black-box systems leave South Atlantic EEZ patrol assets vulnerable to external tech embargos. The Tamandaré consortium balances German engineering transfer with 40%+ mandatory local content.
