<<Defense stocks rallied Wednesday after Defense Secretary Robert Gates asked the U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee for an additional $42.3 billion in 2008 defense supplemental spending to support the troop surge in Iraq. This brings the overall request to just under $190 billion, including a $5.3 billion procurement request for armored vehicles, according to a Pentagon statement. The agency did not comment on the distribution of the extra funding request. Leading the charge was armored-vehicle maker Force Protection Inc. , up 7.7% to $21.50; unmanned aircraft maker Aerovironment Inc. up 6.9% to $23.97; and Textron Inc. , up 2.5% to $63. The Dow Jones Wilshire U.S. index was up 41.8 points to 6194.05.>> marketwatch.com
