neutral  Khalid W: The asker should clarify whether this refers to Iraq or Sudan, since the two countries have different standard translations for the same phrase here.

Military Industrialization Corporation (MIC)


Explanation:
There are a lot of hits for the Military Industrialization Corporation (MIC), especially for Iraq. I put a few examples below. In addition, Military Industry Corporation is used for Sudan. Also, if this is a general term, then Military-Industrial Complex is also used (especially in the U.S.).
