Ans:

A) There are no Data available regarding Capital Spendings of General Dynamics Corp. in public domain. but you can get it by purchasing it from different sources available on the internet.

b) Current Beta of General Dynamics and its major competitors are listed below along with there comparison.

it will be difficult to make any comment on how risky the company is without any detailed analysis of the company financials. but just bye seeing the Beta we can draw an opinion that it's less volatile to Indices ( Market). as Beta only indicates the volatility of a stock.
