Introduction on behalf of the
OCCAR Board of Supervisors

France holds the Chairmanship of the Board of Supervisors in 2016
In the current context of plural threat, we, within the
Board of Supervisors, share the idea that cooperation
between the European countries in the defence field is
essential. As the research of the best value for money
is a permanent concern, it requires from each of us
an investment strategy. OCCAR is a very credible
answer for the Member States and the Non Member
Participating States which share the same ambition
for European Armament Cooperation.
Year after year OCCAR appears to be the right place
to enhance such willpower of European defence
cooperation because this efficient organisation offers a
favourable environment to manage complex Armament
Programme Cooperation. As the OCCAR core business
is really the Through Life Management of cooperative
defence equipment Programmes, the Nations can seek
the best value for money by sharing the cost for their
systems during the different phases, from Development,
to In-Service Support and Disposal.

1. Foreword by BoS Chairman
P-5
OCCAR is still a young organisation, created to be
able to develop and deliver defence capabilities with
a high level of quality, performance, flexibility and
interoperability and at the best cost for the Member
States. As a fact this organisation begins to be a
reference for the Programmes managed in a European
cooperation environment, able to respond quickly to
Nation’s requirement changes but also able to treat at
it’s best, the Programmes difficulties. This management
proficiency is noticeable through the OCCAR methods,
tools and processes which combine the best practices
of the Nations and also a real human resource knowhow, by selecting the most talented people.
OCCAR-EA efficiency can be easily measured by
a low overhead ratio between administrative and
operational cost. Therefore, the development of
OCCAR and the perspective of a larger Programme
portfolio are challenges that OCCAR and the Nations
will have to deal with in 2016. We had acknowledged
recently that we want to keep the OCCAR level of
quality and performance while also ensuring a robust
and efficient structure dedicated for Member States
and Non Member Participating States.
In 2016, OCCAR will also have to emphasise a privileged
partnership with the European Defense Agency. It
is a good way to promote OCCAR in the context of
European cooperation. EDA offers a complementary
approach by initiating new Armament Programmes
that we can integrate in OCCAR.
I would like to conclude this introduction by recalling
OCCAR’s efficiency and innovation for managing
complex Armament Programmes with professionalism,
integrity and cultural diversity. The challenges of
2016 must be faced with the same dynamic and close
collaboration between OCCAR-EA and the Member
States, but also within the Member States themselves
as it has been the case for years now.

Foreword by the OCCAR Director
Timothy ROWNTREE
OCCAR Director
2015 saw an unprecedented growth in the OCCAR
Programme portfolio from 8 to 13 Programmes. This
huge growth further demonstrates the confidence of
our customer Nations in OCCAR’s capability to deliver
successful cooperative Programmes. With more than
25 of the superb A400M airlifters now in service,
joining the in service fleets of FREMM frigates,
TIGER helicopters, FSAF PAAMS missile defence
systems, BOXER vehicles and COBRA radars, OCCAR
Programmes are a key component of the European
Defence inventory across the land, air and maritime
domains.
The success of 2015 also reinforces the fact that
cooperation is now a proven way to secure better,
more common and interoperable equipment at a
much lower cost than is possible through National
Programmes, both for initial acquisition and throughlife sustainment. 2015 has also proved another
important point: that despite our high work load
and relatively small team sizes, we have been able to
rise to the challenge of the new Programmes whilst
maintaining full control of our existing Programmes.
Our new Programmes are the Multipurpose Patrol
Ships (PPA), the Logistic Support Ship (LSS), the
Multi Role Tanker Transport aircraft (MMF), the
Maritime Mine Countermeasures Systems (MMCM)
and the Medium Altitude Long Endurance Remotely
Piloted Aircraft System (MALE RPAS). Together with
a significant expansion during 2015 of the Boxer
vehicle Programme, these new Programmes span
a significant breadth of capability areas, which will
further strengthen the European Defence Capability
and the vital European industrial and technological
base that underpins it, for many years to come.
There are of course good reasons for the success of
2015, and why our customer Nations continue to trust
us with an ever increasing portfolio of vital capability
Programmes. OCCAR embodies 5 key differentiators
which drive our success:
Efficiency: OCCAR seeks best Value for Money driven
as far as possible by healthy competition. This also
extends to the selection of our staff, creating fierce
competition amongst the best candidates that the
Nations can provide. Thus we deliver our 50 Bn €
portfolio with a lean structure of only 255 people,
representing an administrative cost overhead of just
1.4% of our 3.4 Bn € annual Programme budget.
OCCAR Business Plan 2016
2. Foreword by the OCCAR Director
P-7
Open to non-OCCAR Nations: OCCAR Programmes
are open to participation by non-OCCAR Nations on
fair and equal terms, we currently have 6 non-OCCAR
States participating in OCCAR Programmes.
A Strong framework to protect: The highly evolved,
tried and tested OCCAR model provides an ISO
Certified Quality Management System and state of the
art programme and risk management within a solid
legal and commercial framework. This framework
protects the interests of all nations in a programme
and ensures that participating nations are held
harmless from the effects of decisions made by the
other partners. This principle avoids international
tension and proves highly effective for the benefit of
all nations in a programme.
Empowered Programme teams within a MultiProject Executive Administration: This construct
provides strong governance and support from a lean
and effective Central Office, whilst the empowered
programme divisions focus on programme delivery.
This allows cross-project knowledge and experience
to be brought to bear at the critical points when
programmes move into new programme phases.
Working hand in hand with our customers: Another
fundamental point about why the OCCAR model
works, is that nations don’t just pass programmes to
OCCAR and wait. They stay absolutely engaged and
making the key decisions through our programme
committee structures, and we in OCCAR execute what
our customer nations decide.
programmes, and to further improve the quality
of the OCCAR framework. We already have some
further tentative programme opportunities in work,
and we will develop these. We will also continue our
strong focus on demonstrating the huge benefits of
cooperation during the In-Service phase. This is a very
under exploited area of international cooperation, and
one that offers massive cost and capability benefits.
A400M, for example, presents a great opportunity for
the nations to save costs and maximise Through-Life
capability through a global support solution, and this
is now developing very strongly with UK and France
already sharing a common spares pool and other
services. It is clear that in today’s business driven
world, it’s not enough to talk in general terms about
cooperative benefits, we need to show the benefits in
hard cash and operational capability terms. And that
is exactly what we are doing.
We will further strengthen our important relationship
with the European Defence Agency (EDA), working
seamlessly together to deliver coherent capabilities for
Europe. At the same time, we will continue to build
upon our relationship with NATO, and in particular
with the NSPA, where we cooperate on a number of
programmes.
2016 is set to be another highly successful year for
OCCAR. OCCAR is ready for that challenge. Together
with the whole OCCAR team, I am proud to provide the
very highest standard of capability and performance
for all of our customer nations.
Looking forward to 2016 and beyond, we will continue
to focus on the successful delivery of our current

Performance measurement of those Strategic Aims is done by using a Balanced Scorecard (BSC) with a defined
set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) which are monitored at Corporate and Programme level. With those
KPIs OCCAR evaluates its success as an organisation and the progress in OCCAR managed Programmes. Recent
results at Corporate level and targets for future years are shown in Annex A.
OCCAR Business Plan 2016
P-11
3.5 Implementation of the Corporate Strategy
First priority is to ensure the effective management
and successful delivery of our existing integrated
Programmes and Programmes currently being
integrated;
Acquisition of new programmes is still high priority.
Promotion of OCCAR by communication with the
European defence community will be continued;
The integration of new non-Member Programme
Participating States, including possibly from
beyond Europe, will be further promoted;
The integration of new programmes, specifically
through EDA, will be further prepared; and
OCCAR will position itself to the NATO community
as a viable, effective Procurement Organisation.
The following actions can be derived from these
priorities and be linked to the OCCAR Strategic Aims:
Be a centre of excellence and be recognised as
such
[related to Strategic Aims C1, C2, F4, F5, I7, I8, L9]
OCCAR-EA will strive to improve its status as a
centre of excellence for management of cooperative
programmes and to be recognised as such by
developing and integrating best through life
Programme Management practices and innovative
techniques, including Life Cycle Costing analysis.
Manage and expand already integrated OCCAR
Programmes
[related to Strategic Aims C1, I7]
OCCAR-EA will manage its already integrated
Programmes to the highest possible quality level and
take an active role in proposing new activities and
programme stages for OCCAR management to the
Participating States. The default approach should be
that all programme stages are managed by OCCAR
in a through life sense, subject to agreement by the
Participating States.
Identify, assess and integrate new programmes
Develop the OCCAR model to work effectively
and efficiently with a larger programme
portfolio
[related to Strategic Aims C1, F4, L9]
The necessary resources for programme preparation,
integration and continued OCCAR management must
be in place to enable successful business development
and high quality, long term programme delivery by
OCCAR. As a consequence, programme integration
on top of the current 12 Programmes will require
the development of the Central Office organisational
structure, the associated financial aspects and to
adapt OCCAR-EA processes and competences.
Promote OCCAR as Programme Management
organisation through external communication
[related to Strategic Aim C3]
OCCAR-EA will communicate information about the
organisation and promote its track record within
the European defence community. The aim is to
positively influence OCCAR-EA target audiences by
key messages communicated through the appropriate
communication channels.
Integrate new Participating States
[related to Strategic Aims C1, I6]]
OCCAR-EA will actively support the integration of
new Participating States. Essential for the accession
of new Participating States are the benefits for both
the existing and new Participating States.
Develop and review programme participation
models
[related to Strategic Aims C1, I6]
All suitable programme participation models need
to provide easy access to OCCAR Programme
Management services and flexibility to fulfil the needs
of the Participating States but also to protect the
Participating States, OCCAR and its Member States
from any threats. The close cooperation with EDA
including the development of cooperation models will
be continued.
[related to Strategic Aim I6]
OCCAR-EA will monitor evolving cooperative armament
opportunities, in coordination with the MoDs of the
OCCAR Member States and also the EDA, with a view
to identifying potential future OCCAR programmes at
an early stage. When potential new programmes have
been identified, OCCAR-EA will promote OCCAR as the
Programme Management organisation.
Develop the co-operation with NSPO/NSPA
further
[related to Strategic Aims C1, I6]
The relationship to NSPO/NSPA will be further
deepened in order to position OCCAR to provide
Programme Management capabilities to NATO.

Management
P-15
OCCAR has been established to manage Defence Programmes in the most efficient way for its Member States and
other Participating States. Each OCCAR Programme is managed against a set of High Level Objectives (HLOs)
giving clear direction to the Programme in terms of performance, time and cost. In order to achieve these HLOs,
OCCAR uses professional Programme Management methodologies that result in optimum performance and
delivery timescales and the reduction of risk and cost.
2015 has been very successful in terms of significant development and growth. OCCAR has successfully
managed to integrate three new Programmes:
The Multipurpose Patrol Ship (PPA);
The Logistic Support Ship (LSS); and
The FR/UK Maritime Mine Counter Measures (FR/UK MMCM).
Furthermore, the management of the Multinational Multirole Tanker Transport Aircraft Fleet (MMF) was set
up in 2015. This is planned to develop into a Programme Division in 2016. Another major Programme, the
European Medium Altitude Long Endurance Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (MALE RPAS) was assigned to
OCCAR for management purposes in 2015 and is also planned to launch as a Programme Division in 2016.

OCCAR is capable of managing any phase of the defence system life cycle from Definition to Disposal. For all
Programmes a Through Life Management (TLM) approach is applied to efficiently assist Nations in making the
right decisions. To this end, OCCAR will use agile and adaptive life cycle cost analysis to make the business
case for cooperation, particularly during the In-Service Phase where the benefits have in the past been more
difficult to prove. As National budgets remain under extreme pressure, OCCAR will use this analysis to assist
Nations in making the right decisions based upon a robust cost and capability analysis of a range of possible
options. This will allow OCCAR, for the first time, to present financial numbers to demonstrate the actual value
of cooperative efficiencies.

A400M – A TACTICAL AND STRATEGIC AIRLIFTER
The A400M meets the need for an efficient, all-terrain transport aircraft for today’s
military operations and uniquely combines strategic (inter-theatre) range, payload
and speed, with a tactical (intra-theatre) capability including low level flight and
operations from unprepared runways. It can transport troops and heavy, large
volume loads and act as a tanker for both fast jets and helicopters.
Nicolas HUE
A400M Programme Manager
The A400M is a new design tailored to meet the
customers’ needs, and is at the forefront of developments
in new technology for large aircraft. The Programme
was officially launched and integrated into OCCAR in
May 2003 with 6 Participating States: Belgium (also
representing Luxembourg), France, Germany, Spain,
Turkey and the United Kingdom. The prime contractor
is Airbus Military Sociedad Limitada (AMSL). In order to
achieve its unique combination of tactical and strategic
roles, including exacting performance requirements,
it was necessary to embody a wide range of new and
innovative systems, materials and techniques.
The first flight was in December 2009 and the first
delivery was in August 2013 to France. As of end 2015,
25 aircraft have been delivered. Currently 5 Nations,
France, Turkey, UK, Germany and Malaysia (as first
export customer) are now operating the A400M. In
2015, the production ramp up increased from 9 aircraft
in 2014 to 14 aircraft deliveries in 2015 (including 2
aircraft deliveries to Malaysia), despite the crash of
one of the production aircraft in May 2015 which led
to a temporary pause of operational, development
and production flights. In 2016, major progress in
capability delivery (Aerial Delivery, DASS) is expected
to be achieved and production ramp-up is expected to
further increase.
Logistic Support activities are fully integrated in the
Development and Production Phase contract and
currently initial support services are in place for France,
Germany, UK and Turkey. OCCAR-EA has signed an
initial support contract for Spain in 2015, as they will
receive their first A400M in 2016.

The aircraft offers great potential for Partner
Nations (and export customers) to achieve greater
capability and significant through-life cost savings by
maintaining a common aircraft standard and common
(Global) In-Service Support. Thus, an A400M InService Support (ISS) MoU was signed by all Nations
in 2011. A Programme Arrangement and a parallel
Programme Decision covering the Global Support
Solution are in final staffing for signature in the
first half of 2016. OCCAR-EA is working closely with
Nations and Industry on the preparation of Global
Support Contracts (one for the aircraft and one for
engine support) that will implement a cooperative
approach among Nations. The Aircraft Global Support
Project is planned in 2 Steps: the First Step in 2016
is based on cooperation between France, UK, Spain
and then Turkey joining gradually; in the Second Step
Germany and Belgium are expected to join in 2019.
The first Engine Support Contract is planned to be
signed early 2016.

BOXER – THE NEXT GENERATION OF MULTI ROLE ARMOURED VEHICLES
The BOXER is a heavily armoured 8x8 all terrain support and transport vehicle
that is being produced in four mission module variants for Germany and five
mission module variants for The Netherlands.
Andreas ZEKORN
BOXER Programme Manager
The BOXER Programme provides the German and
The Netherlands Armies with a new generation of
all terrain armoured utility vehicles. BOXER provides
balanced capabilities of transport-capacity, mobility,
protection, survivability, growth potential and
efficient life cycle costs. BOXER can operate in high
intensity conflict, in rapid reaction peace support
and in humanitarian operations worldwide, offering
improved capabilities and higher levels of performance
and protection than other vehicles in its class.
The first discussions on a multi-role armoured vehicle
in an international context originated from France and
Germany before 1995. The United Kingdom joined the
discussion in 1996 and in 1999 they decided together
that it should be a wheeled vehicle. After France left
the Programme in 1999, The Netherlands joined the
BOXER development in 2001.
At the same time OCCAR was requested to execute the
management of the development contract. In 2004
UK left the Programme. Several BOXER prototypes
were built and an extensive qualification Programme
for the various vehicle types started.
The development phase was executed by ARTEC
GmbH – a consortium currently formed by Krauss
Maffei Wegmann, Rheinmetall MAN Military Vehicles
and Rheinmetall MAN Military Vehicles Nederland.
In December 2006, OCCAR placed the contract
with ARTEC for series production of 272 vehicles
for Germany and 200 vehicles for The Netherlands.
In 2015 Germany requested OCCAR to prepare the
procurement of 131 additional BOXER vehicles. The
BOXER is delivered to Germany in four different vehicle
versions, and will be delivered to The Netherlands in
five different vehicle versions.
The BOXER is an 8x8 all terrain heavily-armoured
utility vehicle with a concept of a common drive
module and an exchangeable mission module,
making it a flexible military vehicle, thus ensuring
OCCAR Business Plan 2016
P-19
maximum strategic and tactical mobility in a wide
range of operational scenarios. This unique modular
concept of the BOXER offers major opportunities for
developing new vehicle variants. The original design
of the BOXER vehicle was improved in 2010/2011 to
conform to new operational needs. Amongst other
design changes a raised weapon station, an add-on
mine protection floor and better Improvised Explosive
Device (IED) protection are now part of the A1
version of the German BOXER vehicles. Recent new
requirements like the Fire Suppression System (FSS)
and Driver Vision System (DVS) will be implemented
in the A2 version.

BOXER
The qualification Programme for Germany was
finished in 2012, and for the Netherlands qualification
will continue allowing some significant changes to
the design. Series production was started in 2009 for
Germany and more than 245 vehicles are currently
in use with Germany. From mid 2011 until early
2014, Germany deployed more than 30 BOXERs for
operations in Afghanistan. The first Netherlands
BOXER, a driver trainer vehicle, was delivered in
August 2013. In January 2014 the delivery of The
Netherlands’ Ambulance started and was finalised
in July 2015. Delivery of the Command Post version
started in July 2015 and will be followed by the Cargo
and Engineers Group version in 2016. The deliveries
of NL vehicles will finish early 2018. The BOXER is
designed for an in service lifetime of around 30 years.
Main activities 2016 – 2018:
Completion of trials and qualifications of the
mission module versions for The Netherlands;
Finish delivery of the German BOXER sgSanKfz
versions;
Preparation and start of delivery of the German
second Batch of 131 vehicles;
Preparation and execution of the upgrade of the
German Vehicles to the A2 configuration;
Delivery of The Netherlands CAR, CP and GNGP
versions; and
Further develop the supportability of the vehicles.

The Programme represents a major bi-National
cooperation between Germany and The Netherlands,
which will bring great operational benefits including

COBRA (COunter Battery RAdar) is a cooperative longrange battlefield radar Programme between Germany,
France and Turkey. The COBRA Programme was
initially established between Germany, France and the
United Kingdom. The United Kingdom departed from
the COBRA Programme as a Participating State with
effect from 1 January 2013. In the same year Turkey
joined the COBRA Programme for the In-Service
support of their systems.
COBRA radar systems have been in service since 2005,
the delivery of systems to the initial Participating
States (France, Germany and the United Kingdom) was
completed in May 2007. Common support in the InService Phase has been implemented and arrangements
have been made for Turkey to be included in that
phase as they have acquired two COBRA systems
from Germany. COBRA is still considered to be one
of the world’s most advanced land based weapon
locating systems, comprising a high performance
radar, advanced processing and an integrated, flexible
command, control and communication system. The
design includes state of-the-art digital processing
and an advanced active, solid-state phased array
antenna comprising several thousand transmit/
receive modules.
The COBRA mission is to locate mortars, rocket
launchers and artillery batteries and to provide
information for countering their effectiveness.
It is also able to monitor breaches of cease fire
when deployed in a peacekeeping role. Following a

engineering and logistic activities related to the
availability of the Systems, the Support to Operations,
the Maintainability and the implementation of
any operational requirements to improve COBRA
performance and capabilities, including software
updates and modifications. Significant software
improvements have already been implemented into
the system in order to reflect more recent threats and
improve performance. Further system improvements
are under preparation. Additional COBRA Systems have

for export to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi
Arabia and Qatar. TR decided in 2015 to leave the
COBRA Programme and TR activities will be phased
out during 2016.
One of the main future activities for 2016 and 2017
will be to maintain and improve on the already high
levels of system availability with the implementation
of on-site maintenance at deployed locations and to
manage the phasing out of TR in a fair and equitable
manner.

ESSOR – THE EUROPEAN SECURE SOFTWARE DEFINED RADIO
ESSOR, the European Secure Software Defined Radio Programme, secures
for the Participating States and European industry the next generation of
interoperable Software Defined Radio (SDR).
The ESSOR Technology Demonstrator Programme
(TDP) was a cooperative venture between Finland,
France, Italy, Poland, Spain and Sweden in the EDA
framework as an ad hoc Category B Programme. The
aims of the ESSOR TDP were the design, development
and implementation of:
1. A Software Defined Radio (SDR) architecture for
military purposes (called ESSOR Architecture); and
2. A military High Data Rate networking wideband
Waveform (HDR WF) compliant with such
architecture, which may be promoted as a
Wideband Waveform STANAG.

The strategic goal of the ESSOR TDP was to provide
the basis for development and production of SDR
products in Europe, as well as to enhance the radio
interoperability among the Participating States’ armed
forces in coalition deployments. The ESSOR TDP goals
were widely achieved; especially several multinational
qualification tests demonstrated that interoperability
in military radio-communications is achievable
through the SDR technology. These milestones are
of paramount importance and are unique as no other
cooperative military radio Programmes have obtained
such results. This landmark result achieved in such a
The ESSOR Programme is now moving to its next
phase, which will address the operational deployment
of the HDR WF including Field Tests, technical
enhancements of the ESSOR products to cover a wider
range of operational requirements, and considerations
for the standardisation of these products. This new
ESSOR phase is called Operational Capability #1
(ESSOR OC1) and will be executed as part of the first
Project Arrangement under a new ESSOR Framework
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This MoU
foresees different Project Arrangements to address the
Development, Qualification, Production, In-Service
Support and Disposal of different SDR products to
provide the Participating States’ armed forces with
state of the art interoperable tactical and aeronautical
communications until around 2030.
The contract award of the ESSOR OC1 is forecasted for
2016. Finland, France, Italy and Spain have signed the
ESSOR Framework MoU. As of 29 February Poland and
Sweden still need to take a decision.

FREMM – THE FUTURE MULTI-MISSION FRIGATES
Leonardo BIANCHI
FREMM Programme Manager
Thierry DICK
FREMM Deputy Programme Manager
The FREMM Programme is one of the most ambitious
and innovative European naval defence projects.
The multi-mission frigates are designed to meet the
requirements of the French and Italian Navies for
the next decades. In 2005, the project management
of the FREMM Programme was entrusted to OCCAR.
The FREMM frigates will ensure the renewal of the
French and Italian Navy’s surface fleet. With eight
frigates ordered by France and ten by Italy, the FREMM
Programme is one of the largest European Naval
Programmes.
Common core of the Programme
Deliveries of FREMM frigates are scheduled from
2012 to 2022. These new generation frigates are
developed by the French and Italian major providers
of global Naval solutions, DCNS and Orizzonte Sistemi
Navali, in a single contract. The FREMM collaboration
is a pragmatic approach that has sought to reap the
benefits of cooperation through common systems
development and the flexibility to meet a range of
mission needs.
The French FREMM are being developed in two
designs: Anti Submarine Warfare (ASM) and Anti Air
Warfare (FREDA). Both of them deliver anti surface
weapons. The final crew number is 108 people
(helicopter detachment included), which is much
lower than for similar contemporary ships. The crew
reduction was reached thanks to advanced technical
solutions and a centralised combat system.
OCCAR Business Plan 2016
P-25
The Italian FREMM are
also being developed
in two designs: Anti
Submarine
Warfare
(ASW) and General
Purpose (GP) with the
possibility to perform

a wide range of
operational missions. The Italian versions also operate
with a reduced crew thanks to Human Factors studies/
optimisation and the high level of automation. The
final crew number of 145 is the result of the choice
of having on board 2 helicopters (with two crews), a
federated Combat Management System and a higher
level of maintainers embarked to ensure greater
flexibility when operating far from Italy.
FREMM
© DCNS
The construction of both French and Italian FREMM
frigates is in line with the schedule.
The First of Class (FOC) ASM FREMM frigate
Aquitaine was delivered to the French Navy on 23
November 2012. The second frigate, the Follow on
Ship (FOS) ASM Provence, was delivered on 12 June
2015. The ASM Normandie was ready to be delivered
to the French Navy in December 2014 but was sold
to the Republic of Egypt. Three other French frigates
are currently being built simultaneously and are at
different stages of construction.
The Bergamini ship (FOC General Purpose) was
delivered fully operational to the Italian Navy on 29
May 2013. The Fasan ship (FOC ASW) was delivered in
December 2013, the Margottini ship (FOS ASW1) on 27
February 2014 and the Carabiniere ship (FOS ASW2)
on 28 April 2015. Five other Italian ships are currently
being built simultaneously and are at different stages
of construction.
Following OCCAR’s Through Life Management (TLM)
approach, the FREMM Programme includes, for both
French and Italian frigates, an Integrated Logistic
Support phase and an initial In-Service Support phase
(which started at the frigates’ delivery) that involves
engineering support, configuration and obsolescence
management, technical service, training, supply chain
support management, electronic systems maintenance
and documentation.

enabling cross utilisation by both Italy and France
of two complementary space systems. The French
Optical Space Component (CSO) will produce optical

its own satellites but also easy-to-interpret optical
images from the French system. Similarly, France will
not only make use of its optical system but will also
benefit from the Italian all-weather, night-and-day
RADAR capability. The technical solution consists of
an advanced bridge called the Common Interoperable

The Definition phase was subdivided in Phases B1 and
B2.
Phase B1 was a one year contract placed in 2011 with
a collaboration of Thales Alenia Space Italia S.p.A,
Astrium S.A.S. and Thales Alenia Space France. This
work confirmed that CSO and CSG systems were
interoperable, and that it was possible for the CIL to
provide full reciprocal access to both space systems
without major modification to their designs.
The definition work was then completed under
Phase B2, the contract being placed in late 2014 and
concluding in September 2015. The Industrial partner
for Phase B2 was Thales Alenia Space Italia S.p.A and
Airbus Defence and Space S.A.S. This work defined the
requirements and the architecture of the CIL as well as
providing a Life Cycle Cost estimate for the CIL.
OCCAR has provided day-to-day management of
the MUSIS Programme with a lean structured team
located in the Central Office Bonn, supported as
necessary with technical expertise from the two
Participating States.
Looking towards the future
The subsequent Programme Phases for MUSIS now
await the Participating States and any other States
wishing to join the Programme to consider the output
from the Definition Phase and agree on a plan to take
the work into Development and beyond, with the
potential that the CIL could enter into service before
the end of the decade.

PPA –
MULTIROLE OFFSHORE PATROL VESSEL - THE NEXT GENERATION SHIP
The PPA Programme is an innovative multipurpose patrol ship project. It
includes the design, development, production of 10 ships, and the In-Service
Support for ten years.
Marko TOMASSETTI
PPA Programme Manager
PPA ships meet today’s requirements of a modern
Navy in a wide range of operations and scenarios,
fully interoperable with NATO and EU partners but
more versatile than the present generation of ships.
In fact PPA has been conceived since the beginning
with enhanced “dual use” features, able to carry out
traditional military tasks and to operate in support of
Humanitarian or Disaster Relief Assistance Operations
and during peace time (e.g. modular hospital, electrical
power, drinkable water ashore and containers).
Some characteristics deserve a special mention:
very high speed, long endurance, resilience and
seaworthiness, manoeuvrability, modularity, high
level of integration/automation, in other words better
suited to face the challenges of the 21st century.
Furthermore, the environmental footprint will be
smaller than ever, by further reducing the polluting
emissions, and by adopting new generation bio fuel
and electrical propulsion.
Configurations/Capabilities
PPA will be delivered in three configurations with
incremental capabilities:
FULL: able to carry out tasks in all warfare areas
such as anti-air (AAW), anti-surface (ASuW) and
anti submarine warfare (ASW);
LIGHT: with limited warfare capabilities, but
with a high versatility granted by its “fitted for”
configuration, which allows an improvement of
operational capabilities through the installation of
systems and equipment according to the specific
mission to be carried out; and
LIGHT PLUS: similar to ‘light’ but with anti-air
(SAAM-ESD) and enhanced anti-surface warfare
capabilities.
The armament may include a medium range surfaceto-air missile system, a 127/64 mm lightweight gun
for guided long range ammunition, a 76/62 mm
single deck gun for guided ammunition, remote

control 25 mm guns, heavy and lightweight torpedo
launchers, a towed array sonar and multirole decoy
launchers. The sensor suite includes dual-band air
and surface search-and-tracking radar, and electronic
warfare suite, together with a fire-control system.
The propulsion system is a Combined Diesel and Gas
(CODAG) arrangement, with an electric motor on each
of the two shafts with a controllable-pitch propeller
(CPP) and conventional rudders. Due to a high level
of automation, the PPA will require a crew of only
90, although will have capacity to embark up to 200
personnel.
Integrated Logistic Support and In-Service
Support
The PPA Programme is conceived on a Through Life
Management (TLM) approach. Integrated Logistic
Support and Temporary Support are included in the
Programme since the beginning.

been achieved with the certification and qualification
of HAD Block 1, and the certification of HAD-F Block
2 for FR, enabling the first deliveries of HAD-F in 2013
to FR and HAD-E in 2014 to ES.
Since 2001 the management of the TIGER Programme
has been under the responsibility of OCCAR. ES joined
the Programme in 2004 and AU was integrated as an
export customer with the status of an observer Nation
into the TIGER community in 2009.
With 113 helicopters (HAP, UHT, HAD-F and HAD-E)
already delivered to Nations and a fully combat proven
weapon system, TIGER has fully entered the In-Service
phase. Indeed, after reaching its operational readiness
in 2008, TIGER has been deployed by FR, DE and ES
and used in several missions in Afghanistan, Libya,
Somalia and Mali. During these operations, TIGER
proved its precise and versatile combat capabilities
and demonstrated remarkable deployment flexibility,
not only from land but also in challenging weather
and naval conditions.
Originally 184 aircraft had been ordered by the
Participating States. Pursuant to the decisions of DE,
FR and ES to reduce and adapt their fleet, the new
breakdowns are as follows: 68 UHT for DE, 60 HAD for
FR (24 HAD + 36 of the 40 HAP versions retrofitted
to HAD), 18 HAD and 6 HAP for ES. Key targets have

The TIGER Programme continuously evolves in order
to face future challenges. In 2016 the MK II project
will start for FR to upgrade the HAD version until
2023. Furthermore, the four Nations are discussing
the technical perimeter of a major mid-life upgrade
(MK III). A MK III architecture study was launched in
July 2015.
The entry of new Nations into the TIGER Programme
also offers new opportunities for the future. OCCAR
aims to enhance the cooperation level with AU to
achieve a better cost sharing, both for ISS and the
MK III midlife upgrade.

4. Programme Management
Only two years after the Programme Decision of FR
and DE in 2007 to commonly manage their ISS tasks,
ES was integrated by signing the related ISS TProgD.
Since then the TIGER has been managed following
a Through Life Management approach, enabling
OCCAR to define during the Development phase and
also for midlife upgrades the support concepts which
are most suitable for a cost efficient management of
the TIGER. Knowing that the ISS phase of a defence
system is its longest and costliest phase, OCCAR’s
main target is to minimise the life cycle costs. The use
of common support to a large extent and the previous
development being based on a common platform is
helping OCCAR to manage the ISS phase in a cost
efficient way.

4.2 Current Programmes in Integration
Multinational Multirole Tanker Transport Aircraft Fleet (MMF)
Within the Air-to-Air Refuelling Initiative of the
European Defence Agency (EDA) several Nations
have agreed to co-operate in a multinational
Programme. The Multinational Multirole Tanker –
Transport aircraft Fleet to be acquired will provide
additional tanker and transport aircraft capability
in Europe.
to Airbus Defence and Space in June 2015 and the
MMF Acquisition Contract is expected to be signed
in 2016. This contract will cover the acquisition of
the aircraft (3 firm aircraft and options for up to 5
additional) and a 2-year initial In-Service Support.
First aircraft delivery is planned for 2019.
OCCAR-EA is currently managing the Acquisition
Phase of the aircraft on behalf of the NATO Support
and Procurement Organisation (NSPO). NSPA, as
the executive agency of the NSPO, will then manage
their Operation and Sustainment.
The management of the MMF Acquisition Phase by
OCCAR-EA on behalf of NSPO is performed through
a Cooperation Agreement between OCCAR and
NSPO. OCCAR-EA issued a Request for Proposal
4. Programme Management
European Medium Altitude Long Endurance Remotely Piloted Aircraft System
(European MALE RPAS)
MALE RPAS capability will facilitate international
conflict prevention and crisis management during
all mission phases of an operation. MALE RPAS
will be operated worldwide, both in National and
in coalition contexts, to especially support ISTAR
(Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and
Reconnaissance) missions.
On 24 November 2015, the OCCAR Member
States agreed to assign the European MALE
RPAS Programme to OCCAR-EA for management
purposes, for the benefit of France, Germany, Italy
and Spain.
The first step of the Programme is a two-year
Definition Study to define the baseline specifications/design for the future MALE RPAS. The
design-to-cost activity will provide the basis for
full development, affordable to the Participating
States, but maximising operational performance.
The Definition Study includes both a System
Requirement Review (SRR) and a Preliminary Design
Review (PDR) as its second major milestones. The
PDA will demonstrate the quality and fitness for
purpose of the proposed design. This will give the
Participating States full confidence that the full
Development Programme can be launched with
acceptable residual risks.
“Air Traffic Integration” certification of the MALE
RPAS is a key objective of the Programme, and this
represents a significant challange.
Preparation for the next steps (Development and
Production Stages) will be part of the MALE RPAS
Programme Division activities during the second
year of the Definition Study. This will be performed
in close cooperation with Nations. MALE RPAS is a
major long-term business opportunity for OCCAR.

4.3 International Partner Organisations
European Defence Agency (EDA)
The co-operative relationship covering this complementary approach was formally established in July
2012 on the basis of an Administrative Arrangement
between OCCAR and EDA. More details were agreed in
the “EDA-OCCAR Interface Model” which was reviewed
in 2015.

The following current activities are being performed
on the basis of the OCCAR-EDA cooperation:
The Multinational Multirole Tanker Transport
Aircraft Fleet (MMF) Project has evolved from the
EDA Initiative on Air-to-Air Refuelling.
Regarding the ESSOR Programme Operational
Capability 1, OCCAR and EDA plan to sign an
Implementing Arrangement under which EDA will
promote the ESSOR products, in particular the
waveform and architecture to create a Europe-wide
user community.
4. Programme Management
The EDA plays an important role in the development
of future European Defence Capabilities including
the promotion of cooperative armament Programmes
amongst its participating Member States. OCCAR’s
mission is the management of Cooperative Armament
Programmes. Against this background, OCCAR and
EDA consider each other as privileged partners in the
domain of co-operative European Defence Capability
Development. EDA is positioned “upstream” to initiate and prepare cooperative armament Programmes
in the Preparation phase while “downstream” OCCAR
can implement and manage these Programmes in
the follow-on phases (e.g. Definition, Development,
Production, In-Service). EDA and OCCAR aim at managing common Programmes on a TLM basis. Support
to OCCAR managed Programmes by EDA is also possible.
NATO Support and Procurement Organisation/Agency (NSPO/NSPA)
OCCAR recognises NSPO as a valuable partner for
support to certain OCCAR managed defence systems
in their In-Service phase. To this end, a framework
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between NSPO
(NAMSO at the time) and OCCAR was signed in 2005.
For the specific support to individual Programmes,
Service Level Agreements are established between
OCCAR and NSPO. This is currently the case for the
A400M, COBRA and TIGER Programmes.
Tanker Transport Aircraft Fleet (MMF) Project was
signed by OCCAR and NSPO on 21 November 2014.
Under this agreement OCCAR is managing the MMF
Acquisition Phase for the Netherlands, Norway and
Poland within the framework of an NSPO Support
Partnership and the NSPA will be responsible for the
Follow-on Support (FOS) and Operations Phase. This
special cooperation will provide an additional tanker/
transport aircraft capability in Europe.
Whereas OCCAR-EA retains the overall Programme
Management responsibility for the In-Service
phase of these Programmes, NSPA performs
Material Support Activities for OCCAR-EA in the
areas of Spares Procurement, Spares Management,
Warehousing, Depot Level Maintenance contracts and
transportation.

Strategic Initiatives
P-45
OCCAR Strategic Initiatives are projects outside the day-to-day operational activities to drive OCCAR’s
performance toward the achievement of its vision and strategic aims.
As the objectives of “Risk Management” have been successfully achieved by the end of 2015 the Strategic
Initiative of former years was closed and is now part of the integrated OCCAR Quality Management System.
For 2016 “Through Life Management” and “Accrual Accounting” will remain as Strategic Initiatives to further
develop OCCARs’ capability.
