Nederlandse defensie industrie

Ik denk wel dat Damen inmiddels een grote factor van irritatie is voor Naval.

[Parera]

Wow, Damen doet het heel goed.

Dit betekend natuurlijk niet alleen goed nieuws voor Damen Naval, maar ook voor de gehele NL defensie industrie. Op het moment dat Roemenië nu besluit alle marine behoeftes te laten invullen door Damen zullen ook andere NL partners hiervan profiteren.

Ook zal de samenwerking tussen de Nederlandse en Roemeense marine vergroot kunnen worden als men deels dezelfde systemen of schepen gebruikt.

Ze hebben een aardige verouderde vloot waarvan eigenlijk alles wel aan vervanging toe is :
- 3 fregatten
- 7 korvetten
- 3 FAC
- 6 MCMV's
- 1 onderzeeboot

Huge news for the Romanian Navy, after years of unnecessary delay: the manufacturer for future defense needs will be DAMEN Romania. The Dutch company has multiple shipyards and its largest research, innovation, design center here.

Wat is jouw bron!

[Huzaar1]

dit is om de Touaregs en andere afrikaanse milities te misleiden die denken dat de Belgen niet bij ze kunnen komen.

Daarvoor hebben ze dan een vork bij! Om een stukje van de route af te snijden.

Ik hoor net dat voertuigbouwer Jankel uit de UK failliet is..... Belgie heeft nog niet zo lang geleden (5-6 jaar of zo) een groot aantal jeeps bij hun aangeschaft.

Kan zo nog niet 1,2,3 news op google erover vinden.

Wat is jouw bron!

[Kevon]

En volgens mij waren daar grote problemen mee...

Oeps, ....
Belgie heeft zowel die Jankel Fox RRV (SF voertuig) als de LTTV (Unimogs) gekocht van Jankel de laatste jaren.

Lithuania orders Thales Ground Master 200 MM/C radars  ( das mooi    dikke duim, steeds meer landen schaffen de GM200 aan)



The Lithuanian Defence Material Agency has signed an agreement with Dutch procurement Agency COMMIT for the acquisition of Thales Ground Master 200 Multi-Mission Compact (GM200 MM/C) radars, the company announced on 3 January 2024.

The number of systems to be procured, along with the contract value, were not disclosed.

"Designed to address modern warfare's challenges, the GM200 MM/C provides simultaneous accurate detection, tracking and classification against all current and future threats, including drones," Thales noted in a press release. The system offers radar operators with more time-on-target to gather as much information on incoming threats as possible thanks to new-generation 4D active electronically scanned-array (AESA) technology. It automatically detects tracks, classifies aircraft, missiles, helicopters, multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as well as rocket, artillery and mortar (RAM) rounds and is particularly suited to weapon location and air defence.

"Cyber-secured by design, the GM200 MM/C also benefits from the latest software-defined radar technology, enabling future upgrades and capability expansion to manage the ever-evolving spectrum of changing threats and doctrines," Thales stated. "Additionally, the compact design of the GM200 MM/C provides ease of choice from fixed-location mode to high-mobility, very short deployment times and ease of transportation on any platform."

Lithuanian partner ELSIS will support Thales in the project, collaborating on vehicle integration part of the solution.

"Acquisition and delivery of [the GM200 MM/C] will be another step in strengthening the Lithuanian armed forces' artillery capability," Sigitas Dzekunskas, Director of the Lithuanian Ministry of National Defence's Defence Materiel Agency was quoted as saying in the Thales press release. "Moreover, the joint procurement provides a lot of opportunities for enhanced co-operation with NATO allies in the field of acquisition and support", Dzekunskas added.

Gerben Edelijn, CEO Thales Netherlands, added, "This government-to-government contract between the Netherlands and Lithuania illustrates the strong European defence co-operation. We are proud to be a part of this collaboration between NATO countries, for which our GM200 MM/C will increase the safety and security of military personnel and high value assets."

The Ground Master 200 Multi Mission family is the new generation of Thales' medium-range ground radars, while the compact GM200 MM/C version is a palletised variant offering high tactical mobility and quick deployment, as well as specific mission roles such as artillery counter-battery and weapon-locating capabilities. It is also well suited to short-range and very-short-range air defence missions.

Heel mooi. Benieuwd hoe dit project verloopt. Ik zie niet hoeveel ze willen aanschaffen. Of lees ik het hoofd.

[Huzaar1]

Hopelijk blijft de schoenmaker bij zijn leest, dit gaat goedkomen. Mooie auto.

Defenture as GRF OEM (original equipment manufacturer) will also act as system integrator for the delivery of the complete system. For the delivery of the systems, close collaboration with internationally well-known OEM's is in place, among others General Dynamics and Comrod. Apart from sub-system integrations, the vehicles will also be delivered in a specific bodywork variant.

Henk van der Scheer, CEO Defenture: ''For Defenture it is a great complement that a high-quality focus organization as armasuisse selects Defenture as one stop shop mobility supplier. After a thorough test and verification period with a full prototype system, we look forward to the further cooperation with armasuisse. Armasuisse joins the ever-growing international user base of Defenture platforms, confirming the international requirements for battlefield proven and truly MOTS systems, dedicated developed for those who serve to protect us and our societies.

Defenture places high demands on mobility, safety, payload, modular design and also focuses on the lowest possible lifecycle costs. These requirements are combined and integrated at every stage of the design of our vehicles. Defenture vehicles are built from the ground up to be mission-winning assets. A strong lightweight design, impressive construction techniques and dynamic driving characteristics create improved mobility for troops and specialists.

Defenture heeft op haar website ook de 3D impressie van de Mammoth veranderd naar een echte foto  van het (prototype) voertuig. Ik hoop dat er ook van dit voertuig over enkele jaren er wat rond rijden binnen de Nederlandse krijgsmacht als aanvulling op de Vector. Een zeer dik voertuig voor o.a. het Korps Mariniers.
