I'd go about it as any other business. You model out the cash flows in a traditional DCF. 

The reason why I wouldn't do a top-down analysis is because defence spending varies a lot from country to country, and it may not necessarily match the Company's product portfolio. I prefer to present the macro environment as a more qualitative support to why my modelled growth seems feasible, rather than get into an argument on how France's increase in defence spending from 1.3% of GDP to 2.0% of GDP will directly affect how many fighter jets LMT will sell. 

I don't know... Yeah. Almost definitely yes.
