A big war is maybe but I think that the whole "war economy" thing is blown way out of proportion. After WW2 great sums of money and huge numbers of workers were needed worldwide to rebuild. After the Gulf War, there was no such need. There may be some short term benefit to defense contractors and such but I think the overall effect will be almost zero.
