EthInves ver 2.0 The On-disk Almanac of Ethical Investing copyright 1988 Jerry Whiting PO Box 20821, Seattle, WA 98102 >>> DEFENSE CONTRACTORS <<< Beware of recent mergers, spin offs and acquisitions. The ever turbulent business world has blurred this list of parent companies (e.g. Sperry & Burroughs haved merged and are now calling themselves Unisys and GE bought RCA etc.). You'll have to check to see who's doing what today. This is a good place to start.

To the best of my knowledge there is no one place you can go to get a comprehensive list. The best I've been able to come up with is the following. The odds are if a company was heavily involved in nuclear weapons research and/or production in 1983, they still are now. I hope to have more comprehensive information included in future updates of EthInves.
