Summary/Abstract: Nowadays, competition is vital to the defense sector, as in all areas of national and international. In the context of economic opportunities to strengthen the defense forces of the country, to bring a certain level and to provide deterrence, it has become imperative to be equipped with modern arms and equipment to the security forces. In this study, a supply chain management application for the defense industry is studied with the current methodological approach to decision-making environment with uncertainty. According to their pre-defined objectives and priorities, the mutual evaluation of actors’ (players’) strategies and selection process of the most suitable ones is shown by “game theory” approach. Due to the uncertain nature of the decision process, “fuzzy linguistic variables and numbers” are used for the evaluation of strategies.
