The Dirty Dozen: Corporate Partners in Mass Destruction. This project names a baker's dozen of the world's dirtiest arms manufacturers. Updated in 2007 with information on corporate involvement in missile defense and the weaponization of outer space. The Dirty Dozen is an intiative of Reaching Critical Will-WILPF, and The Arms Trade Resource Center of the World Policy Institute. Updates in 2007 were made possible by a generous grant from the Secure World Foundation.

Aerospace Industry: In early 2007, Reaching Critical Will examined the aerospace industry's contributions to missile defense and the weaponization of space. We found that along with twelve of the original thirteen Dirty Dozen corporations, there are dozens of other companies involved in the development of space weapon and missile defense technology and support systems. Twenty-three of those corporations are represented in this report, in the Dirty Dozen Annex.
