- U.S. National Security Advisor General James L. Jones

Let's face it: We live in a dangerous world. And the challenges are getting more complicated – and harder to defend – everyday.

In fact, on February 12, 2009, Dennis Blair, the U.S. Director of National Intelligence, released a threat assessment for the United States. Blair stated that the world financial crisis had become America's primary security concern.

"The primary security concern of the United States is the global economic crisis and its geopolitical implications. Of course, all of us recall the dramatic political consequences wrought by the economic turmoil of the 1920s and 1930s in Europe, the instability, and high levels of violent extremism."

Blair's assessment rings in the new era of military technology... a new era that will make more than a few savvy investors very rich.

Big sweeping changes in the military are on the way, presenting smart folks with a very lucrative investment situation.

"The world that we live in has changed so dramatically this decade that organizations that were created to meet a certain set of threats are no longer useful," explains U.S. National Security Advisor General James L. Jones.

As I mentioned before, people who spotted the emerging trend in military technology back in the 1932... and invested in select defense stocks... made fortunes.

For example, if you had put a few dollars into Electric Boat Company in 1932, you could have pocketed a stunning 55,000% return as World War II sent the stock soaring. You could have also put some money into Douglass Aircraft in 1932, and realized a 23,586% return. And if you had invested in Savage Arms (a weapons manufacturer) you could have made a 14,650% gain.

Think about that... If you had put $5,000 into each of the above stocks (a total of $15,000), you could have ended up with over $5 million!

I think you'll agree: That kind of performance will erase any concerns you have about retirement...

Of course, most people missed out because they were waiting for the markets to turn around... they were waiting for a clear sign that the economy was getting better.

The same opportunity exists today...

Of course, making tanks, boats and submarines is no longer the way to make a fortune on military technology. Today's world is much more complicated. In fact, we are just beginning to see a massive shift in military technology that threatens to make the stuff of science fiction movies like "The Terminator" all too real.

Russia. North Korea. Al Qaeda. Hamas. Hezbollah. Venezuela. Iran. Afghanistan. Homegrown terror cells. All of these factions pose significant threats.

And here's the thing: New modes of attack have become a reality. Even terrorist organizations operating out of the mountains in Pakistan have sophisticated Internet technology that makes a cyber attack not only viable, but likely.

"We expect disruptive cyber activities to be the norm in future political or military conflicts," says Director of National Intelligence Dennis Blair.

In order to protect the United States against modern threats, it will take a new kind of army...

National security and leading-edge technology are merging into a new world of sophisticated defense systems.

Companies that build weapons, tanks, boats and armor will do well. You might keep an eye on General Dynamics (GD), Lockheed Martin (LMT), and Raytheon (RTN). Of course, these companies are massive, and their upside is limited.

But the real leader in the new era of military technology will come from a tiny company located just outside Washington, DC... in the shadow of the National Intelligence Community.

Most people have never heard of this company. They operate behind the scenes. In fact, they are practically invisible. But for those who know about them, the upside profit opportunity rivals the fortune made on Electric Boat Company back in the WWII era.

This company has been around for over 40 years, and as the world has changed, they have become the invisible force field that keeps America safe.

In 2007, as the U.S. slipped into recession, this company had its best year in its 40-year history. As things get tougher, this company only gets stronger.

Ninety-three percent of its business comes directly from U.S. defense operations... meaning they are going to be busy and growing for decades to come.

That means they are rock solid and offer a certain degree of security in uncertain economic times. But the thing I like best about them is the explosive upside profit potential.

This company is the leading provider of advanced technology, technical services and security solutions to the U.S. national security community. They manage global operations throughout 42 states and 40 countries.

This company's team of cyber security experts develops and employs some of the most advanced cyber security techniques, processes, methodologies and tools available to protect, secure and exploit information. They utilize a state-of-the-art forensics and counter-intrusion laboratory to simulate and model different scenarios for their clients.

A representative list of their customers includes: the U.S. Navy, Air Force, Army, Marine Corps, FBI, National Security Agency, CIA, Department of Homeland Security, Justice Department, State Department, Environmental Protection Agency, NASA, NATO, state and local governments, and many more.

These guys are on the frontlines of cutting-edge military technology and defense solutions.

They are positioned at the center of the U.S. intelligence community. In a sense, the glue that holds the U.S. military together. They are so woven into the national defense that I seriously doubt the military could function as well without this firm.

How high could they go?

I've already told you how people who invested in cutting-edge defense stocks back in the Great Depression made a fortune. Remember, a $10,000 investment in Electric Boat Company in 1932 could have turned into a $5.5 million windfall!

The military technology stock we are recommending today offers similar potential. And while I can't promise you a 55,000% return, I can tell you that in my opinion, this company has serious potential to deliver a massive payout in the coming months and years.

This is truly a stock you could buy and never worry about again. It is essential to U.S. national security... and it is a must for any serious investor's portfolio.
