 The United States continues to hold the title of the world’s top weapons exporter, supplying almost $23 billion worth of weapons to other countries last year – particularly in the Middle East – according to a new report by IHS Jane's.

简氏防务周刊发表的一份新报告说，美国仍然是世界上最大的武器输出国，去年出口了价值接近230亿美元的武器，主要出口地区是中东。
Its annual Global Defense1 Trade Report released on Sunday showed the global defense market rose by $6.6 billion in 2015, up to a total of $65 billion.
简氏防务周刊星期日发表全球防务贸易年度报告说，全球防务市场贸易额2015年增长了66亿美元，总额达到650亿美元。
“The global defense trade market has never seen an increase as large as the one we saw between 2014 and 2015,” said Ben Moores, senior analyst2 at IHS. “2015 was a record-breaking year.”
简氏防务周刊分析家莫里斯说，全球防务贸易市场的交易额从来不曾有过这样大的增长幅度，2015年创了记录。
French arms sales more than doubled in 2015 from the year before, rising from $8 billion to $18 billion. If that rate continues, the report said, France will overtake Russia as the second largest defense exporter by 2018.
报告说，法国的武器销售额2015年增长了一倍多，从80亿美元猛增到180亿美元。报告说，如果按此速度发展下去，法国2018年将超过俄罗斯，成为全球第二大武器输出国。
The increase in global arms sales last year was driven largely by increased demand from countries in the Middle East, which dominated the top of the list and received around $21.6 billion worth of equipment deliveries, including $8.8 billion from the U.S.
全球军火贸易去年增长的主要原因是中东国家的需求增加。中东国家去年购进价值约216亿美元的武器装备，其中88亿美元的武器来自美国。
