There needs to be an international law against private arms manufacturers. They have proved over and over again that they cannot be trusted. The business of all private capitalist firms is to make money. Arms manufacturers make most money when there is a war or the threat of a war. Therefore they work assiduously to stir up trouble, the more the merrier!
Governments on the other hand, (When not corrupted) are concerned to spend as little money as possible. Therefore, government owned arms firms are concerned to produce arms which are effective, robust, easily serviced, cheap to produce, easy to use or better still (if possible given the political situation) to downsize!
Another idea, perhaps, easier to achieve, is a law banning politicians or politicians' families from owning shares in arms companies or "working" for them, even after they retire.
