It’s the various corporations that build and maintain equipment for the military.  Think Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Boeing, etc.

Not all of them are exclusively military suppliers either.  Texas Instruments, for example, is known for their calculators, but they also make guidance systems for missiles.
