The Eurofighter consortium
comes to DSEI having just
landed an agreement from
Kuwait to proceed with the
acquisition of 28 Typhoon
multi-role fighters, following
a meeting in Rome between
the Italian and Kuwaiti prime
ministers. Italy has led the
Kuwaiti campaign on behalf
of the four-nation Eurofighter
consortium (Airbus Defence and
Space in Germany and Spain,
Alenia Aermacchi in Italy and
BAE Systems in the UK). The
deal would be handled as a
government-to-government
transaction.
Reports suggest that Kuwait
is seeking 22 single-seat aircraft
and six two-seaters. If the
deal is concluded the aircraft
are most likely to be newly
built Tranche 3 machines, and
could be the first export aircraft
with the active ‘e-scan’ radar
currently under development.
Any deal would also likely
include weaponry, and a training
and support package.
Although the deal has yet to
be finalised, Kuwait’s selection
of Typhoon is a welcome boost
to the Eurofighter consortium
in the advanced fighter
marketplace, particularly in the
Middle East. In February this
year the rival Dassault Rafale
secured an order for Egypt,
followed in April by a contract
from Qatar. In the Middle East,
Typhoon is already in service
with Saudi Arabia and has been
ordered by Oman. Eurofighter is
hopeful of securing a follow-on
Saudi order, and also has hopes
for a sale to Bahrain.
In Kuwait the Typhoon has
competed primarily against
Rafale and the Boeing Super
Hornet. It is possible that
Kuwait may opt for a split buy,
acquiring F/A-18E/F Super
Hornets as a replacement for
its current force of F/A-18C/Ds,
in addition to the Typhoons. Q
acknowledged BAE Systems as
the preferred bidder.
The Mk 45 gun is already in
service with the US Navy and 10
other allied nations, with more
than 240 systems delivered
globally. It is understood that the
Mk 45 Mod 4 mountings to be
supplied to the MIFS programme
will be remanufactured and
upgraded from existing Mk 45
Mod 2 gun systems.
Entering service from 2023,
the Type 26 GCS has been
designed as a versatile, multimission warship capable of
undertaking a wide range of
roles from high-intensity warfare
to humanitarian assistance,
either operating independently
Q
or as part of a task group.

scores in Kuwait

' The Mk 45 is at the centre
of our MIFS solution and will
provide the Royal Navy with a
low-risk, low-cost, and highly
effective automatic weapon
system," said Joe Senftle, vice
president and general manager
of Weapon Systems at BAE
Systems. ' It combines the
benefits of a mature, reliable,
and proven system with the
capacity to deliver the full range
of ammunition available today
and in development."
BAE Systems was
downselected for MIFS in early
2014 ahead of a rival bid from
Babcock (teamed with OTO
Melara of Italy). However, the
MoD has only now publicly

Nordkapp upgrade contract
Sagem has won a competition to supply a modernised
navigation system for the Norwegian Coast Guard’s three
Nordkapp-class offshore patrol vessels. Each vessel will be
fitted with a SIGMA 40 laser gyro inertial navigation system.
The contract further consolidates Sagem’s 20-year partnership
on navigation systems with Norway. The company’s SIGMA
40XP system was previously selected for the modernisation of
the Royal Norwegian Navy’s six Ula-class submarines.
SIGMA 40 navigation systems are fitted on more than 500
surface naval vessels and 75 submarines.

A shared future
GÜNTER ENDRES
At the end of July, after
more than a year of intense
discussions, Krauss-Maffei
Wegmann (KMW), Germany’s
leading builder of armoured
vehicles, and French stateowned competitor Nexter
Systems signed a deal to merge
their operations, in what is the
most spectacular tie-up in the
European arms sector for a very
long time.
The alliance is expected to
be completed by the end of
the year, with the creation of a
new holding company, which
is to be headquartered in the
Netherlands. It will be owned
in equal shares by KMW owner
Wegmann, and GIAT Industries,
which controls Nexter. Industrial
production will stay with the
operating companies and remain
under domestic management,
and the two CEOs have
confirmed that the alliance will
have no social consequence or
impact, neither on employment
nor on the collective agreements
in place. First, however, Nexter
needs to be privatised and this
may delay the formation of the
joint company.
The new European giant will
have an annual turnover of
€2 billion (USD2.27 billion), 6,000
employees, and a current order
book worth some €9 billion. But
more significant still is the much
enhanced influence and, some
would say, control of this highly
competitive market sector. The
merger is still to be sanctioned
by the anti-trust authorities of
both nations, which will come
under increasing pressure from
various interested parties to
ensure a level playing field.
Day 1 p5.indd 5
There is no doubt that from
an economic standpoint, the
merger makes sense, but
politically, the honeymoon
for the two is unlikely to be a
smooth affair.
The main concern voiced
in Germany is that once the
marriage is consummated, the
tight regulation placed by the
authorities on arms exports
may be watered down to the
level of the much more liberal
and laissez-faire attitude of the
French, who have shown few
qualms in securing contracts
with nations outside NATO and
the European Union. Although
the German minister for
economic affairs and energy,
Sigmar Gabriel, introduced
tighter restrictions on arms
exports when taking office in
2013, and the ministry has since
stated that arms exports will
not be affected by the merger,
not everyone is convinced that
the new company will not find a
way to circumvent the onerous
regulations. KMW CEO Frank
Haun has urged the German
and French governments to
agree to joint export rules
for the new entity, and much
midnight oil will be burned over
the next few months to find a
solution acceptable to both.
As yet, there are no joint
products on the assembly line,
but this is expected to change.
Haun told the French National
Assembly defence committee
in January that the alliance
5
janes.com/dsei
would work over the next five
years on a new main battle
tank, which could replace the
Leclerc (left) and Leopard 2
(right) models in the 20252030 timeframe. No definitive
name has been assigned, but
it could be Leopard 3, or some
combination of Leopard and
Leclerc. According to Haun,
fully automated artillery, smart
munitions and laser weapons
could also be joint alliance
projects of the future.
In the meantime, Nexter will
upgrade 200 Leclerc tanks and
18 DCL (Dépanneur de Char
Leclerc) heavy recovery vehicles
under a €330 million contract
awarded by the Direction
Générale de l’Armement (DGA)
in March. The modernisation of
the Leclerc MBTs forms part of
the army’s Synergie du Contact
Renforcé par la Polyvalence et
l’Infovalorisation (SCORPION)
programme, with the vehicles to
be designated Leclerc R (Rénové)
and DCL R. The modernised fleet
will be re-delivered from 2020
and will extend the vehicles’
service life beyond 2040.
The next few years will show
if the alliance works out as
envisaged. French minister of
economy, industry and digital
affairs, Emmanuel Macron, has
said that the bilateral agreement
provides for five years of
stability, but if this is seen
to be illusory, both operating
companies would be free to back
Q
out of the agreement.
Spinning off
Also in July, on the other side
of the Atlantic, Lockheed
Martin agreed to purchase
Sikorsky Aircraft from United
Technologies Corporation
(UTC) for USD9 billion, but this
is reduced to USD7.1 billion
after taking into account tax
benefits resulting from the
transaction.
If approved, it will be LM’s
largest acquisition since
it bought Martin Marietta
Corporation for about
USD10 billion two decades
ago. The deal would enhance
Lockheed Martin’s leadership
in the aerospace sector,
adding another element to
its predominantly defenceoriented portfolio.
It is expected that the
company will preserve
the long-established and
highly regarded Sikorsky
brand and operation but will
align it under its Mission
Systems and Training (MST)
business segment. MST and
Sikorsky currently partner
on a number of helicopter
programmes, including the
VH-92 Presidential Helicopter,
the Combat Rescue
Helicopter, and the Naval
MH-60. Sikorsky is partnered
with Boeing on the SB-1
Defiant, while LM and Bell
Helicopter are offering the
V-280 Valor, both targeted
to meet the US Army’s Joint
Multi-Role (JMR) technology
demonstration programme.
There would appear to
be few political dimensions
to the acquisition by LM of
Sikorsky Aircraft, although
the Pentagon, LM’s biggest
customer, will keep a close
eye on any deal, to ensure
competition in the market is
maintained.

Skylark gets smarter
Elbit Systems’ Skylark manportable mini unmanned air
system (UAS) is in service with
more than 30 international
customers. It is the standard
battalion-level UAS for the
Israeli Land Forces, and has tens
of thousands of operational
missions to its credit. Powered
by an electric motor, the Skylark
is typically used for short-range
battlefield reconnaissance,
counter insurgency and force
protection missions, as well as
perimeter security and border/
coastline patrols.
Earlier this year, Elbit
Systems (Stand S10-140)
announced a new model of
this proven ‘beyond the next
hill’ reconnaissance system
− the Skylark I-LEX. Drawing
on experience gained by the
company with its larger Hermes
family of UAVs, the Skylark
I-LEX introduces better air
vehicle performance, enhanced
airworthiness and more
safety features. New, higherperformance sensors have
been integrated, and a secure,
encrypted communication
system is installed.
Improvements have been
made to the ground control
system (GCS) to allow the
simultaneous operation of
two Skylark I-LEX air vehicles
at a range of up to 40km. The
user-adaptable GCS also has
an improved interface and
advanced algorithms that
allow the automatic tracking of
fixed and moving targets and
automatic motion detection, as
well as providing highly accurate
geo-registration for targeting.
To enhance the Skylark
I-LEX’s operational flexibility,
Elbit has created an advanced
remote video terminal for it.
This allows operators to control
the UAS and its payload in a
Q
‘fly-by-camera’ mode.

Making its DSEI debut is the
latest generation of the Saab
Dynamics Carl-Gustaf 84mm
shoulder-launched recoilless
rifle/support weapon. The
first generation of the weapon
dates back to 1948, but through
successive development
remains as viable today as it
was nearly 70 years ago, and
is in service with more than
40 nations.
The Carl-Gustaf M4 is the
latest iteration, first announced
late last year. Significant weight
savings have been achieved
through the use of a titanium
liner, carbonfibre casing and
reduced-length Venturi section
at the rear. Weight is down to
6.7kg from the 10kg of the M3
version, while overall length
is reduced to 985mm from
1,065mm.
At the same time, the
weapon has been improved
ergonomically, and can be
optionally fitted with red-dot
or intelligent sights. Another
option is a communications
link between the sight and the
ammunition to allow for the
automatic setting of airburst
options. The launcher can
also be operated remotely. In
previous versions, users were
required to keep a written log
Carl-Gus
legend li
of shots fired up to the liner’s
life of 1,000 rounds, but the M4
has an integral shot-counter.
Another feature is a safety
catch that
allows
the weapon
to be
carried with
a grenade
loaded.
Eleven types of round
are available for the CarlGustaf M4, and are backwards-

Usually operated by a two-soldier
team, the Carl-Gustaf M4 is lighter,
shorter and smarter than its
predecessor
staf: the
lives on
compatible with older
launchers. The latest round is
the 300m range HEAT 655 CS,
which is the first that offers
confinedspace
launch
capability.
Development
of further confined-space
rounds is under way, along with
more types of programmable
ammunition. Five different
intelligent sights have already
been qualified.
Saab Dynamics (Stand
N2-230) also offers two
disposable shoulder-launched
weapon systems in the form of
the AT4 multipurpose weapon
and the NLAW anti-tank
missile. Recent developments
have seen two more confinedspace versions being added to
the AT4 range, the AT4CS HE
high-explosive anti-armour
round and the AT4CS ER
extended-range anti-area
weapon, the latter available
with either impact or airburst
fuzing. Together with the AT3CS
AST anti-structure weapon, the
HE and ER rounds have been
procured by the French army as
the Roquette NG system.
Meanwhile, Saab has
increased the range of the
direct attack/top-attack
overflight NLAW weapon to
800m from 600m, through a
software change that can be
applied to existing weapons.
The company has also
developed, but not yet
qualified, a 1,000m version
with some hardware changes
Q
incorporated.

Concentrated power is spot on
Rheinmetall Defence (Stand
S2-266) is emphasising its
expanding range of High
Energy Laser (HEL) effectors
for land- and sea-based
defence, being promoted for
the emerging threat from
unmanned air systems, which
are often very small, slow and
fly at a low altitude, writes
Christopher F Foss.
Being shown at DSEI are an
Oerlikon Skyshield remotecontrolled turret fitted with an
integrated HEL effector, and a recently developed powerful 20kW
standalone HEL effector for naval applications (above), which has
already undergone sea trials. This is based on the naval MLG 27
lafette, which is normally armed with a 27mm Mauser cannon.
By using beam-superimposing technology, Rheinmetall has
concentrated the power of single laser beams into one tiny
spot, which, the company says, not only allows superimposition
of multiple laser beams on a single gun platform, but also
superimposition of multiple gun platforms.
The Oerlikon Skyshield has the standard 35mm cannon
replaced by a 10kW fibre laser and beam-forming HEL unit,
which has already taken part in the Live Laser Demonstration
carried out in Switzerland. The HEL effector is one part of the
Rheinmetall ground-based air defence system; the other is the
Oerlikon Skyshield or Oerlikon Skyguard computerised fire control
unit, which carries out target acquisition and weapon control and
then hands over to the HEL to carry out the target engagement.
Rheinmetall Defence has already demonstrated a 5kW HEL
on an M113 series tracked armoured personnel carrier, a 20kW
system on a larger Boxer (8x8) Multi-Role Armoured Vehicle
(MRAV) and a 50kW system in a container carried on an 8x8
cross-country truck.

Nexter Systems VBCI-2 in
IFV configuration
Exports expected
CHRISTOPHER F FOSS
Nexter Systems (Stand S9-286)
is showing in public for the first
time at DSEI its latest Vehicule
Blindé de Combat d’Infanterie
(VBCI-2) (8x8) in the infantry
fighting vehicle configuration
(IFV), which has been developed
by the company for the export
market using internal research
and development funding.
The VBCI-2 leverages from
the 630 VBCIs (8x8) delivered
to the French Army in two
versions, with final deliveries
made in 2014, as well as
inputs from potential export
customers.
Although externally similar to
the VBCI, the new VBCI-2 has a
host of improvements including
a new all-welded aluminium
hull design, which provides
greater internal volume and a
higher roof line. It also has a
higher level of ballistic, mine
and improvised explosive
devices (IEDs) protection, a
more powerful Scania diesel
engine, uprated suspension
and larger tyres for improved
mobility. Gross vehicle weight
depends on the modular armour
package but is typically around
32 tonnes, which compares with
up to 29 tonnes for the current
French Army VBCI. Steering is
power-assisted on the front
four wheels, and one of the
many options is steering on the
last roadwheel station, which
is very useful when operating
in a confined area. The VBCI-2
has a crew of three consisting
of a commander, a gunner and
a driver, and six dismounts.
The latter are seated in the
rear troop compartment three
down each side on special
blast-attenuating seats and can
rapidly leave the vehicle via a
larger power-operated ramp in
the hull rear.
The VBCI-2 being unveiled
at DSEI is fitted with the latest
Nexter T40 two-person turret
armed with a CTAI 40mm Case
Telescoped Armament System
(CTAS) and a roof-mounted
Kongsberg remote weapon
station (RWS) armed with
a 7.62mm machine gun. To
engage better-protected targets
at longer ranges, a Raytheon/
Lockheed Martin Javelin or the
future MBDA Missile Longue
Portee (MLP) anti-tank guided
weapon can be mounted
externally on either side of the
turret. Other weapon options
Q
are available.

Remaining
undetected
for longer
ROBIN HUGHES
The proliferation of battlefield
sensors, and an increased
ability by hostile actors across
the threat spectrum in all
theatres of operation to adapt
broadband sensor data to a
battle management system
architecture, has spurred
demand for advanced signature
management solutions for
operations in the urban
environment.
With this in mind, signature
management system house
Saab Barracuda, part of the
Saab Dynamics business
area, has unveiled the latest
configuration of its integrated
Mobile Camouflage System
(MCS), the Urban MCS, on which
it has been working since the
beginning of the year.
Shown for the first time at
DSEI, a prototype version is
displayed on the Saab Stand
S2-230 integrated onto a 4x4
Iveco Light Multirole Vehicle in
a Saab CBRN & Trackfire RWS
configuration,
but can be
adapted for any
vehicle or platform.
Barracuda’s MCS technology
is essentially a tailor-made,
multipurpose combat
vest, optimised in colour,
design and properties for all
theatres, designed to enhance
survivability, sustainability and
the logistics of a vehicle or
platform relative to a specific
operational environment or
requirement.
The system provides a
stealth or masking capability
in the visual, near-infrared,
thermal infrared and broadband
radar wavebands, including
target acquisition sensors
and smart ammunition. The
Urban MCS can additionally
be equipped with Barracuda’s
HeaT Reduction system,
which lowers the internal
temperature of vehicle, thereby
extending the endurance of its
operator personnel and vehicle
integrated electronic systems.
"Operations in the MOUT
environment are becoming
more commonplace," said
marketing director, Niklas
Ålund. "In this environment,
where the average range for
detection and engagement is
so short, it is vital to have those
extra fractions of a second
where you remain undetected,
particularly given the much
higher threat posed by weapons
at short range from a masked
position than in open terrain."
Ålund noted that while
the Urban configuration
is a prototype system, all
the materials and all the
technologies in it are battle
proven. "That means that this
is not a prototype that we’ve
made to see if it works; we
know it works."
He disclosed that the Urban
MCS will equip a number of
variants of the UK’s future
Scout Specialist Vehicle
Q
armoured fighting vehicle.

Experience a virtual world
DAVID DONALD
Airbus Defence and Space
(Stand S2-310) has brought a
new dimension to this year’s
DSEI in the form of virtual
reality (VR). The company’s
stand is built around a series of
bespoke VR cockpits that allow
visitors to become immersed
in a virtual world through
the wearing of Oculus Rift
headsets.
Airbus DS has a wide portfolio
of products and services.
While more traditional forms
of presentation highlight
individual product capabilities,
the use of VR allows the
company to explain how they
can work symbiotically in
A400M in virtual air show (above);
disaster relief scenario (right)
different environments. Three
separate virtual scenarios have
been created to showcase
some of Airbus DS’s important
products.
In the first, a disaster relief
operation, the participant
begins in an A400M airlifter
transporting supplies into
a stricken area, before
moving by vehicle to
the NATO DCIS mobile
communications
system that commands
and controls the complex
Oculus Rift headset
operation of troops responding
to the emergency.
Mars is the destination in the
second scenario, where viewers
can ‘see’ the ExoMars rover
automated vehicle in action, as
well as explore its capabilities.
The third scenario comprises
a virtual air show of all Airbus
DS products, from UAVs such
as the Tanan through to large
tanker/transport aircraft. The
scenario includes the ability to
select the load-out for a C295
transport and to explore inside
the cabin.

IN BRIEF Driving diesel to military market
Lifting point
RICHARD SCOTT
The new ICE-LBG-SR super
rotation load ring from
RUD Chains (Stand S3-302)
maintains the design
parameters of its VLBG
series, including the ability to
rotate 360° in all directions
under load. The double SR
ball bearing allows turning
and flipping at high working
load limits without affecting
the mounting bolt stability.
The ICE-bolts are made
of fine grain steel, which
guarantees a high static and
dynamic strength with the
smallest bolt diameter. The
ICE-LBG-SR is supplied in
standard sizes M8 up to M30.
What is claimed to be the
first viable high-power diesel
outboard engine for military
users is being launched onto
the global defence and security
market at DSEI by UK-based
Proteum Ltd, part of SC Group
(Stand N9-360).
According to Proteum, the
200hp OXE Diesel outboard
− manufactured by Swedish
company CIMCO Marine − has
the highest power density of
any marine diesel and has
the range and performance
to operate in the extreme
environments required by
military operators.
NATO’s single fuel policy
to improve safety and
interoperability is driving the
transition to diesel power, as
the use and storage of petrol
aboard ships is increasingly
prohibited by navies and other
forces due to its volatility. Diesel
engines offer advantages in
terms of lower maintenance,
longer service life, lower fuel
consumption and lower volatility,
allowing for safe storage on
board ships and on land.
OXE Diesel uses a
conventional automotive engine
block adapted for marine use
and, unlike most outboards, is
mounted horizontally so as to
improve reliability and reduce
maintenance. OXE Diesel also
incorporates a unique selfcontained belt propulsor unit
that eliminates the traditional
high-maintenance bevel gears
and transfer shafts by utilising
the latest belt drive technology.
An OXE Diesel-powered
Boomeranger rigid inflatable
boat will give waterborne
demonstrations of its
capabilities at DSEI. An OXE
Diesel engine will also be on
static display on the Proteum/
Q
SC Group stand.

Success for HISAR-A interceptor
ROBIN HUGHES
Roketsan (Stand N9-210)
has completed another
milestone in the development
of its HISAR-A short-range
air defence interceptor, with a
series of trials to validate the
performance of its indigenously
developed autopilot and dualpulse solid propellant rocket
motor technologies.
The tests, conducted at the
Aksaray test centre in June,
included the launch of the
autopilot-equipped Controlled
Test Missile-1 (KTF-1), and
Ballistic Test Missile-2
(BTF-2), which successfully
demonstrated the first launch
of a low-altitude air defence
Controlled Test
Missile-1 (KTF-1) being
launched at the Aksaray
test centre in June
interceptor with a dual-pulse
rocket motor.
HISAR-A (which has a range of
15km at sea level) is intended to
deliver the lower tier capability
of Turkish Armed Forces’ HISAR
Low and Medium Air Defence
requirements, with the medium
level delivered by the longer
range (25km) HISAR-O. Both
missiles feature a high degree
of commonality, including the
same imaging infrared seeker,
command and control and fire
control systems (developed
by Aselsan), the same highexplosive fragmentation
warhead (developed by Tubitak
Sage), and the same impact and
proximity fuze.
Roketsan said both missiles,
which are designed to engage
fixed and rotary-wing threats,
UAVs and cruise and air-tosurface missiles, are compatible
with existing and future NATO
systems, and offer significant
integration and interoperability
potential.
The trials were conducted
under the auspices of the
Turkish Land Forces Command,
Undersecretariat for Defence
Industries, along with Aselsan,
which primes the HISAR
programme. Aselsan is also
offering HISAR-A and HISAR-O
interceptors as part of its
solution for Poland’s NAREW

High tenacity
AmSafe Bridport Ltd (Stand
N9-460) and NIMR Automotive
LLC, the military vehicle
manufacturer based in Abu
Dhabi and a member of the
Emirates Defence Industries
Company (EDIC), have signed a
co-operation agreement to offer
the AmSafe Tarian RPG armour
system on NIMR’s range of 4x4
and 6x6 military vehicles.
The agreement outlines
plans for both companies to
collaborate with the aim of
janes.com/dsei
NIMR offering AmSafe’s RPG
protection as an option on its
vehicles and to market Tarian in
territories where it already has
a strong presence.
Tarian technology has been
developed in response to
requirements from military
users for a lightweight, higher
performance and more robust
alternative to traditional,
heavy, metal bar or slat armour
RPG protection systems. The
core element of the Tarian
RPG defeat mechanism is an
extremely strong textile net
manufactured from hightenacity fibres. Tarian nets
are attached to vehicles using
flexible mounts that enable
the system to withstand harsh
vehicle operating conditions
without sustaining damage.
Tarian is being exhibited on

the JCB High Mobility Engineer
Excavator (HMEE) on JCB’s
Stand N6-270. JCB will be
offering Tarian as an option
across its fleet of military
vehicles. Richard Beatson,
general manager of JCB
Defence, said: "JCB Government
& Defence has supplied over
4,000 machines to 57 military
user nations since 1984. At
DSEI, we will be showcasing the
latest upgrades to our HMEE,
including our choice of the
Tarian RPG armour protection
system for its light weight,
durability and versatility. Recent
deployments on operations in
high threat environments have
seen the HMEE’s performance
rated as ‘outstanding’ and the
addition of the new protection
system will increase the appeal
of the HMEE globally."

first three Type 26 Global
Combat Ships for the Royal
Navy (RN) under a contract
awarded by prime contractor
BAE Systems. The first engine
for the Type 26 programme is
due for delivery in late 2016.
Rolls-Royce had previously
been working under a Design
Development Agreement (DDA)
and has also signed DDAs with
BAE Systems for steering gear,
stabilising fins and mission
bay handling equipment.
Derived from Rolls-Royce
Trent aero engine technology,
and building on more than
45 million hours of operating
experience and ultra-high
reliability, the 36-40MW-rated
MT30 is claimed to be the
world’s most power dense

subsystems, for internal and
external communications via a
uniform IP network. The core
component is the R&S NAVICS,
a new IP-based switching
system said to have a unique
security concept.
An innovative feature of
the ICS is the extensive use
of ruggedised, off-the-shelf
IT technology, with accredited
security provided by R&S. As
a result, the number of voice
terminals is reduced and stateof-the-art ATEX smartphones
employed within securitycritical environments.
External communications
for the Type 26 ICS will be
handled by VHF/UHF and HF
transceivers from the R&S M3SR
family (Series 4400 and Series

New class of military workboats
RICHARD SCOTT
UK-based CTruk (Stand S8-298)
is utilising its extensive
experience in building for the
offshore wind support market
to develop a series of workboats
tailored for the military market.
CTruk has already
manufactured nearly 30
composite-built windfarm
service vessels, extending up to
22m in length and featuring a
patented flexible ‘pod’ system
that enables the deckhouse
configuration to be changed
in around eight hours. This
allows passenger or other
specialist pods to be fitted, or
the deckhouse moved to free up
additional deck space.
CTruk has built a prototype
vessel for the military sector
in the shape of its 11m Twin
Hulled Offshore Raider (THOR)
demonstrator craft (above).
THOR can be configured for
troop transport and assault,
fire support, and riverine and
coastal patrol; design variants
extend from 11m to 19m.
The catamaran hull of THOR
will be used as the basis for the
new CTruk military workboat
line. Built from advanced
composite materials, to give
a strong and robust structure
plus reduced overall vessel
weight, the workboat designs
are baselined with waterjet
propulsors (although other
propulsion options are available).
CTruk chief executive Andy
White believes the flexible pod
concept will be popular with
military workboat users who are
seeking to get the maximum
utilisation out of their craft. The
catamaran hullform will also
increase the amount of usable
deck space.
"Like most users, military
customers are looking to get
the most value for money
out of their investment," he
told the DSEI Daily. "It is no
longer economically viable to
procure a platform to fulfil one
task and our workboats can
be reconfigured to serve as a
survey vessel on one mission
and then be refitted overnight
to work as a dive boat the
Q
following day."

CTAI, a joint venture between
Nexter Systems of France and
the UK’s BAE Systems (Stand
S3-100), has now started
production of its 40mm Case
Telescoped Cannon (CTC), with
first production weapons to be
completed in the third quarter
of 2016.
Earlier this year the company
was awarded a €193 million
contract by the UK Ministry of
Defence, covering the supply of
515 40mm CTCs over a five-year
period. The MoD is to supply
the 40mm CTC as government
furnished equipment (GFE)
with the two-person turret
developed by Lockheed Martin
UK for installation on the
General Dynamics UK Scout –
Specialist Vehicle (Scout − SV),
and with a different Lockheed
Martin UK turret for
installation as part
of the Warrior
Capability
Sustainment
Programme (WCSP).
The CTC includes the
40mm cannon (CT40), as well
as the recoil system, firing pin,
muzzle brake, weapon motor
and introductor assembly.
The weapon and its initial
two natures of ammunition
were qualified by France and
the UK under a joint programme
in mid-2014. These were
armour-piercing fin-stabilised
discarding sabot − tracer
(APFSDS-T) and target practicetracer (TP-T). Now undergoing
qualification are the
General Purpose
Round −
Point
Detonating
(GPR-PD)
and the
General Purpose
Round − Air Burst.
Under current plans, the
British Army is due to take
delivery of 245 Scouts, and a
total of 380 Warriors will be
upgraded under the WCSP,
but not all of these will have
the new turret armed with the
40mm CTC, as some versions
have a machine gun turret.
The French Army has adopted
a different approach and is to
purchase the complete weapon
system, which is referred to as
the Case Telescoped Armament

Surveillance radar for Singapore
The first NS100 E/F-band dual-axis multibeam surveillance radar for
Singapore’s Littoral Mission Vessel (LMV) programme has completed
Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) at Thales Nederland’s Hengelo facility
in the east of the Netherlands.
NS100 combines an electronically stabilised, mechanically rotating
antenna with an active electronically scanned array able to generate beams simultaneously in both
elevation and azimuth. The system draws on technology previously proven in Thales Nederland’s
SMART-S Mk 2 and the SMILE/Sea Master 400 E/F-band radars, and shares a common SR3D
platform architecture.
Thales Nederland secured its launch customer for NS100 in early 2013. Although the company
did not name its client, export licensing documentation subsequently revealed Singapore as the
purchaser of eight NS100 systems, matching exactly the number of 80m LMVs being built by
ST Marine for the Republic of Singapore Navy. The Singapore Ministry of Defence officially
confirmed selection of NS100 in early July this year coincident with the launch of the first-of-class
RSS Independence.
The FAT − which comprises a series of tests to demonstrate that the system complies with the
requirement set by the customer − was completed at Hengelo in August. Prior to the formal FAT,
the NS100 was extensively tested against both targets of opportunity and controlled air targets.
Following delivery to Singapore, this first NS100 radar will be installed on board Independence in
October this year ahead of sea trials.

BAE Systems Hägglunds (Stand
S3-110) is launching the latest
in its BvS 10 family of all-terrain
tracked vehicles at DSEI 2015 −
the BvS 10 Beowulf. It is aimed
as a potential replacement of
the older Bv 206 unarmoured
vehicles, of which the company
has sold more than 11,000 to
some 40 countries − most of
which are still in service.
According to the company,
one early potential customer
is the UK Royal Marines, which
operates a fleet of older Bv 206
all-terrain vehicles for a variety
of battlefield roles. About 230
new vehicles are required.
Day 1 p28-29.indd 5
janes.com/dsei
The latest BvS 10 Beowulf
uses the same chassis and
running gear as the combatproven BvS 10, already deployed
by France, the Netherlands,
Sweden and the UK (known
as the Viking), of which the
current production model is the
BvS 10 Mk II. It is fitted with an
unarmoured front unit to which
a variety of special-to-role rear
units can be attached.
As Beowulf is fitted with a
lightweight unarmoured body, it
has a greater payload than the
fully protected version of the
BvS 10 Mk II, as well as having
increased crew comfort and
visibility and reduced throughlife operating and support costs.
It has a baseline weight of
8 tonnes and a maximum gross
vehicle weight of 15 tonnes. The
front unit has a load capacity
29
of 3 tonnes, while the rear unit
has a capacity of up to 8 tonnes,
which is three times more than
the Bv 206, which was designed
more than 40 years ago.
The vehicle is powered by
a Cummins 6.7 litre in-line
diesel engine developing 285hp
coupled to an Allison six-speed
transmission, which gives
a maximum road speed of
70km/h. It is fully amphibious,
being propelled by its rubber
band tracks at a maximum
speed of 4km/h.
Although designed mainly
for the military market, BAE
Systems Hägglunds sees a
significant potential civil market
for the BvS 10 Beowulf, where
a high level of cross-country
mobility and payload is required,
such as in emergency and
Q
humanitarian applications.

CHRISTOPHER F FOSS
US manufacturer Orbital ATK
(Stand S2-266) is ramping
up production of its M1156
Precision Guidance Kit (PGK)
for 155mm towed and selfpropelled artillery systems,
having produced more than
12,000 PGK for the US Army
and Marine Corps. This quantity
includes both PGK for 155mm
artillery and for the US Army’s
120mm smoothbore mortar.
The first export customers,
Australia and Canada, will take
delivery of their M1156 PGK with
the M777mm lightweight towed
artillery systems later this year.
Orbital ATK's M1156 PGK
features a GPS-based, fixedcanard guidance and control
approach with gun-hardened
electronics and a self-generated
janes.com/dsei
Projected precision
The M1156 PGK can be fitted to 155mm artillery projectiles to give a
significant improvement in accuracy
power supply, which requires
no battery. It is a direct
replacement for the standard
deep-well nose-mounted
artillery fuze in 155mm high
explosive projectiles and
performs in-flight corrections
to provide a step change in
accuracy and reduced collateral
damage. In addition, it has a
fail-safe option that prevents
a PGK artillery round from
detonating if it does not get
close enough to the target.
In March 2015, Orbital ATK
received a USD120 million first
option contract that called for
the production, lot acceptance
testing and delivery of PGK to
home and export customers.
Production is scheduled to start
early in 2016, with deliveries
under the first option due to be
completed early in 2018.
In June 2015, the company
announced that during its
first production lot acceptance
testing, the PGK demonstrated
median accuracy of less than
10m with a reliability of 97
per cent, when 42 155mm
projectiles fitted with the PGK
were fired from the 155mm/39
calibre M109A6 Paladin selfpropelled artillery system. It has
already been successfully fired
from other 155mm artillery
systems, including the PzH
2000 (52 cal), AS90 (39 cal) and
Q
Archer (52 cal).

The most crucial challenges
to military missions are not
always the capabilities of the
enemy but the limitations
imposed on military equipment
by unforgiving landscapes and
environments.
The Enhanced Situational
Awareness (ESA) camera
system from DRS Technologies
arms drivers of large combat
vehicles with close to a 360°
view of their surroundings,
providing an unparalleled
advantage in the interest of
safety and mission success.
ESA increases survivability,
mobility, force protection and
safety, to turn situational
awareness into situational
advantage.
By means of a unit known
as a Driver’s Vision Enhancer
Wide (DVE Wide), composed of
janes.com/dsei
All-round vision
three infrared cameras, it can
provide a 107° by 30° visual
field through the windshield,
affording a clear view of the
road ahead and the edges on
both sides. Meanwhile, wheeltrack displays with 40° by 30°
fields of view from the sides
of a vehicle allow drivers to
determine the best way to
manoeuvre in confined spaces
and around obstacles.
A camera facing backwards
allows a driver to safely reverse
a vehicle and a commander to
deploy troops confidently from
the rear. DVE Wide is built with
an advanced uncooled thermal
imaging system. Sensors
electronically ‘stitch’ together
the images from the three
side-by-side thermal imaging
modules to produce a seamless
front view,
dramatically
improving the
field of view.
DRS Technologies

Protection for
Brazilian Lynx
Finmeccanica company Selex ES
has been contracted to supply
a new electronic warfare (EW)/
defensive aids system (DAS)
suite for eight Brazilian Navy
Lynx Mk 21A helicopters being
upgraded by sister Finmeccanica
business AgustaWestland.
The updated platform selfprotection fit will comprise the
new SAGE electronic support
measures (ESM) system and a
DAS controller − both supplied
by Selex ES − plus a third-party
countermeasures dispensing
system.
AgustaWestland was last
year awarded a contract worth
more than USD160 million for
the mid-life upgrade of eight
Lynx Mk 21A helicopters serving
with the Força Aeronaval
da Marinha do Brasil. The
modernisation also includes
replacement of the original
Rolls-Royce Gem engines with
the more powerful LHTEC
CTS800-4N, a new ‘glass’
cockpit, and a new electrically
powered rescue hoist.
Working under contract to
AgustaWestland, Selex ES will
supply its SAGE digital ESM
system. SAGE will provide
a wideband radar warning
capability (primarily aimed
at platform protection) and a
narrowband fine angle of arrival
and geo-location capability (to be
used primarily for surveillance/
intelligence collection). The
associated DAS controller
will cue a countermeasures
dispenser system.
According to Selex ES, the
SAGE system for the Lynx
Mk 21A upgrade will be supplied
with a suite of EW operational
support tools for mission data
programming and replay. This
will provide the Brazilian Navy
with the ability to independently
and responsively update the
system library to recognise
emergent radar threats.
Variants of SAGE have
previously been selected
for the Republic of Korea
Navy’s Maritime Operational
Helicopter programme, and
for the Indonesian Air Force’s
CN-235 maritime patrol aircraft
upgrade. The SAGE ESM system
has also been supplied to the
UK Ministry of Defence for an
Q
undisclosed application.

Four-legged sophistication sealed
GÜNTER ENDRES
If you see a highly sophisticated
robotic dog walk or run towards
you, and hop over obstacles
with surprising agility while
carrying a payload of up to 50kg,
it is in no small measure due to
the durable, high-performance
Trelleborg seals in the hydraulic
actuators that power the legs of
BigDog.
"Making a mechanical dog
walk and run was an unusual
project," admitted a spokesman
for Trelleborg Sealing Solutions,
"since these types of seals
are most commonly used
for aircraft landing gear and
industrial equipment."
BigDog, which moves like a
living creature and senses its
surroundings, has already been
put through its paces in the
Massachusetts countryside,
and its second-generation
successor LS3 (short for Legged
Squad Support System), were
developed and built by a small
cutting-edge outfit called
Boston Dynamics with funding
from the Pentagon’s research
arm, DARPA.
"About half the Earth’s
landmass is inaccessible to
Day 1 p43.indd 4
wheeled and tracked vehicles,"
said Boston Dynamics’ founder,
professor Marc Raibert,
explaining the motivation
behind the creation of BigDog,
"but people and animals can go
almost anywhere on foot."
LS3, which is in the testing
phase, will be an upgraded
version of BigDog, with greater
load-carrying capacity and
a walking range of up to 20
miles before it needs to refuel.
It will be able to obey simple
commands from humans,
such as ‘follow me’ or ‘wait’,
which can be issued through a
handheld device. While BigDog
has sensors in its legs to feel
the terrain, its successor will
also be able to see and obtain a
location fix via GPS.
The unique project
has already led to closer
collaboration between the
two companies. Trelleborg is
supplying high-end seals for
the LS3 and for the Boston
Dynamics’ latest robot, a
humanoid creature dubbed
Petman, which will be used by
the US Army to test chemicalprotection clothing.
"We developed Petman
from a clean sheet of paper to
a walking robot in just eight
months," said Raibert. On a lab
treadmill, the company’s latest
creation is up and running, heel
to toe, just like a human does.
Trelleborg Sealing Solutions
(Stand S3-265) develops,
manufactures and supplies
precision seals that are
designed to withstand abuse,
show minimal wear and
will not leak under adverse
conditions. Made from
polytetrafluoroethylene-based
sealing compounds, the seals
operate reliably at temperatures
ranging from -70°C to +260°C
and remain functional even in
a debris-filled environment at
high speeds and pressures. Q

GÜNTER ENDRES
Carolina Unmanned Vehicles
(CUV) (Stand N5-161), a womanowned company focusing on
small aerostats and UAVs, is
showcasing a new version of
its Small Tactical Multi-Payload
Aerostat System (STMPAS).
STMPAS-II follows on
from STMPAS-I, which was
developed for the US Army
Rapid Equipping Force, for
ISR deployment to small
tactical units in Afghanistan.
The STMPAS blimp can fly at
altitudes of 500-10,000ft for
low-cost, long-term coverage
for 24 hours a day for a week
or more without requiring
maintenance or downtime.
STMPAS-II, which was
developed with internal
funding, can carry ISR and
communications payloads
attached under a small,
specially designed tethered
blimp, called a Helikite, and a
trailer carrier that stores the
Helikite and the required winch,
sensors and helium tanks.
STMPAS-II retains the
small crew size, high mobility,
air transportability and
logistics supportability of its
predecessor. It is claimed
to operate for weeks at a
time at a fraction of the cost
of comparable aircraft or
unmanned air vehicles.
/ =ZgV UV^` Re 5D6: dY`h

Day 1 p44.indd 4
With superior mobility,
mission utility and adverse
weather capability, including
operation in high winds, all
STMPAS equipment can fit
into a single military trailer.
Enhancements include launch
directly from a box on the
trailer top rather than from
the ground, which improves
the launch timeline, reduces
problems with muddy or
uneven ground, and allows
movement of the system with
the Helikite inflated atop the
trailer. The Helirest air-inflated
unit has been moved to the
trailer top where it restrains
and protects the Helikite during
inflation and deflation and
ground storage.
STMPAS is designed
to support mobile or
expeditionary operations, but
may be employed in static
missions, such as a force
protection measure at a small
forward operating base that
cannot logistically support
a larger aerostat system. It
is aimed at mobile border
security and post-disaster
communications support, and
is suitable for surveillance and
communications relay.
The US Department of
Commerce has approved the
basic STMPAS equipment for
export.

What better endorsement
SAM J BASCH
One of the latest international
ammunition manufacturers
using the South Africandeveloped handheld 40mm
XRGL40 extended-range
grenade launcher for
development purposes is the
UK’s Energetics Technology
Limited (ETL). Having embarked
on developing a range of 40mm
medium-velocity grenades,
ETL opted for the Rippel Effect
Systems launcher.
In addition to the XRGL40,
Rippel Effect (Stand N3-110) is
also showing its electronically
programmable multi-velocity
GR40 sight, which allows the
operator to choose between
different ammunition types that
can be fired with the XRGL40.
“"Medium-velocity grenades
in 40x51mm calibre afford
the operator the advantage
of hitting a target accurately
at 800m range, essential
for our range of specialist
payloads, which is what Rippel
Effect’s XRGL40 was designed
to achieve," said Dr Peter
Jemmett of ETL. "Two years
of development work on the
medium-velocity grenade,
extensively using the Rippel
XRGL40 launcher with GR40 multi-velocity sighting system
Effect launcher, culminated
in ETL securing an important
contract with a European
client."
Several other major
ammunition manufacturers,
notably Rheinmetall Denel
Munition and the state-owned
Indumil of Colombia, have
entered into agreements
with Rippel Effect to use its
XRGL40 for the development
of medium-velocity rounds.
Atlantis Corporation of South
Africa is certifying its extendedrange low-velocity grenades
with the XRGL40, while Diehl
BGT Defence used the XRGL40
to qualify its 40x46mm NG
extended-range ammunition.
"This is a clear endorsement
of the capabilities and quality
of our extended-range
grenade launcher," said Dawid
Fourie, business development
executive. "The XRGL40 is now
operational with the armed
forces of 10 countries around
the world, from southeast Asia
through the Middle East to
Latin America."
An important feature of
the XRGL40 is its ability to
fire both standard 40x46mm
low-velocity and 40x51mm
medium-velocity grenades,
as well as the latest lesslethal ammunition from the
same weapon without any
reconfiguration. This makes it
ideal for peacekeepers and law
enforcement agencies, whose
operations sometimes preclude
the use of excessive force.

Report from the bush
Being in a remote location with almost no means of communicating
could be a daunting experience, but not for South Africa’s PJ
Aviation (Stand N3-110), which offers a rugged portable ground-toair transceiver that is becoming popular around the world.
Collaborating with Walter Dittel Avionik in Germany, Peter
How of PJ Aviation improved on the well-known KRT-2 VHF
transceiver, resulting in the KRT2-TB2, said to be ideal for search
and rescue, disaster management and anti-poaching. "Most air forces and ATC centres would
probably remember the yellow Walter Dittel transceivers that were exported widely," says How.
"When the company stopped producing those models, Walter Dittel’s son built the KRT-2, which is
Europe’s fastest selling VHF transceiver. Now we can expand this product.
"While there are several handheld VHF transceivers on the market, only a high-power portable will
provide adequate range and battery endurance in applications such as temporary ATC, air show control,
fire-fighting, oil rigs, personnel extraction, and other situations where VHF propagation is difficult."
About 50 per cent of the new KRT2-TB2 is manufactured in South Africa. It is lightweight yet
constructed of high-strength corrosion-resistant alloys, making the outer shells and face resistant
to denting and salt water corrosion. Its features include a full graphic LC-display that is clear
in all light conditions, including bright sunlight; 8.33kHz and 25kHz channel spacing for future
compatibility; and a ‘dual watch’ mode that allows monitoring of two different channels.
The South African Air Force was the first to accept the new units, followed by air forces and
airports in several countries.

shortly after it was completed
in the armoured personnel
carrier (APC) configuration. Since
Day 1 p48-49.indd 5
then, development and trials
have continued at a rapid pace.
By September 2015, Patria had
completed one automotive test
vehicle and two pre-production
AMV XP vehicles, with well over
15,000km of trials clocked up
in a wide range of terrain and
environmental conditions in
Finland and overseas, with the
latter including hot weather
trials in the Middle East. The XP
in the designation means extra
performance, extra payload and
extra protection.
Patria (N6-160) is quoting a
maximum gross vehicle weight
(GVW) of 32 tonnes, of which
15 tonnes is the payload, which
janes.com/dsei
includes the crew, fuel, weapon
system and the modular
armour protection system. The
company is also marketing an
amphibious version which will
have a GVW of 28 tonnes, which
will be propelled in the water by
two propellers at the rear.
The AMV XP has a host
of improvements, including
a greater internal volume, a
more powerful diesel engine
developing 450kW, larger tyres
for improved mobility and a
digital backbone, which will
make it easier to integrate key
subsystems such as battle
management systems, remote
weapon stations (RWSs)
and cameras for situational
awareness. It can be fitted
with a wide range of weapon
systems according to the end
user’s operational requirements
49
− from RWSs armed with
machine guns (MGs) up to a
turret-mounted 105mm gun or
Patria 120mm mortar system.
The vehicle being shown
here is in the infantry fighting
vehicle (IFV) configuration
and fitted with the Italian Oto
Melara HITFIST two-person
turret armed with an Orbital ATK
30mm MK44 dual-feed cannon
and a 7.62mm coaxial MG.
Mounted either side of the turret
is an anti-tank guided weapon
such as the RAFAEL Advanced
Defense Systems Spike.
Patria stressed to the DSEI
Daily that the latest generation
AMV XP will be marketed
alongside its best-selling AMV,
which has now been sold
to Croatia, Finland, Poland,
Slovenia, South Africa, Sweden
and the United Arab Emirates. Q

Welsh aerospace business Air
Covers Ltd (Stand S9-421), a
designer and manufacturer
of protective covers for the
European, Middle East and
African helicopter industry,
has won a competitive tender
from the Ministry of Defence
to provide protective covers for
the Royal Air Force’s Puma Mk2
helicopters.
The company has supported
UK Apache, Merlin and Lynx
helicopter fleets on operations
since 2008. The upgraded Puma
Mk2 will operate in some of the
world’s harshest climates far
from home. The contract, worth
£75,000, is to be delivered in
less than three months.
"This was a tough design
challenge," said John Pattinson,
managing director of Air Covers.
"Military helicopters bristle with
janes.com/dsei
Protection
for Puma
antennas, cameras, hoists and
sensors. Effective covers must
fit like a skin in high winds, repel
heat and sand in the desert and
insulate in the Arctic. They have
to be fast to fit and safe for the
aircraft. Although our processes
require laser scanning, 3D
modelling and CNC prototyping,
it was probably our track record
in Canada, Scandinavia and the
Middle East that proved most
important when proposing a
solution."
Air Covers also supplies
offshore oil and gas fleets,
search and rescue, private and
corporate helicopters.

Supacat (Stand N9-360) is
unveiling its latest Light
Reconnaissance Vehicle 400
Mk 2 at DSEI this year, which
is aimed at emerging special
forces requirements for a
highly mobile vehicle that can
be easily transported in the
widely deployed Boeing CH-47
transport helicopter.
The original LRV 400 Mk 1
was shown here two years
ago and was developed in
partnership with Qt Services.
As a result of potential
customer feedback, the latest
LRV 400 Mk 2 has been under
development since early 2014,
with the first examples already
undergoing company trials.
The first customer-ready
trials vehicle will be completed
14/09/2015 09:42
janes.com/dsei
Stealthy stalker
shortly after DSEI and
development will be completed
by mid-2016.
The latest vehicle is based on
a Land Rover Discovery base
automotive platform, which has
been adapted by Supacat for
the more demanding military
Day 1 p52-53.indd 5
application. This enables the
LRV 400 Mk 2 to be supported
through the extensive Jaguar
Land Rover global spares
network.
The baseline LRV 400 Mk 2 is
in a 4x4 configuration, but can
be converted into a 6x6 model,
which provides the user with a
significant increase in payload,
capacity and operational range.
It has a gross vehicle weight
of 4,200kg, of which 1,700kg is
payload, and a crew of three or
four. Both left-hand drive and
right-hand drive models will be
marketed. The top road speed is
being quoted as 160km/h, with
a road range of up to 800km.
The vehicle is powered by
a Land Rover 3-litre V6 turbo
diesel engine that develops
256hp, coupled to an eightspeed automatic transmission,
and high and low permanent
all-wheel drive with central
differential locks. Crossaxle differential locks can be
53
supplied as an option.
For a high level of crosscountry mobility, the LRV 400
Mk 2 is fitted with front and
rear independent doublewishbone air suspension, which
also offers variable ride height
and lock-out bump stops.
Various lightweight armour,
weapons and communications
systems can be fitted. A
typical weapon installation
would be a 5.56mm or 7.62mm
machine gun on a swivel mount
alongside the driver and rollover protection on which could
be a ring-mounted .50 machine
gun or a 40mm automatic
grenade launcher.
According to Supacat, the
LRV 400 Mk 2 fills a gap in
its product range between its
HMT Series (Jackal, Coyote and
Extenda) and its quad bikes. Q

UGV for multiple missions
Estonian defence
company
Milrem (Stand
N3-362) is
presenting
the prototype
of its hybrid
unmanned
multimission tracked
vehicle, which it says is the
first of its kind in the world.
Developed to assist or take
the place of humans in lifethreatening situations, such as
war, crisis situations, high-risk
working environments, as well
as in places that are difficult to
access, its innovation lies in its
track system, whose necessary
components are all housed
internally,
leaving the
centre platform
free for different applications.
It will be made available
for remote or autonomous
operation.
Weighing only 750kg with
a payload of 500kg, the
unmanned ground vehicle
(UGV) can be used as a remote
weapon station, remote
observation and
sensor vehicle, medical
evacuation platform,
while being able to
traverse all terrain,
from snow and ice to
swamps.
"Most of the
unmanned systems created
so far are designed to fulfil a
single specific task, such as
bomb disposal. Milrem's UGV
concept is universal and will
effectively supplement defence
capabilities on a battalion
level," said Kuldar Väärsi, CEO
of Milrem. "Unmanned ground
vehicles will be a big part of
the modernisation of military
capabilities in the next five to
10 years," he added.
The UGV has been developed
in co-operation with the
Estonian Ministry Of Defence
and the Estonian Defence
Forces.
Milrem is also collaborating
with universities and
companies from Estonia, Latvia
and Lithuania, including Tallinn
University of Technology,
University of Tartu, Estonian
National Defence College
and the Lithuanian Center
for Physical Sciences and
Technology.
Milrem is a member of the

RAPTAR (rapid targeting and
ranging module), a lightweight,
integrated technology system
that provides an infrared (IR)
laser, visible laser, IR flood
and laser rangefinder in a
compact, rugged, all-weather
package. Equipped with
precision windage and elevation
adjusters, the entire laser suite
is controlled as one. It can be
mounted to a wide range of
weapon platforms.
RAPTAR-Lite offers both
visible and IR aiming lasers and
a variable-focus IR Illuminator,
which are precisely controlled
with adjustors for azimuth and
elevation. The compact, allweather package includes an
80-lumen SureFire flashlight to
identify targets and threats and
offers versatility of use in close-
quarter combat situations.
RAPTAR-S offers all the
proven technology of the
original RAPTAR system, and
features an applied ballistic
solver for precise accuracy
at extremely long ranges,
accounting for all major and
minor trajectory variables. A
ballistic calibration feature
allows the user to ‘train’ the
software to match a specific
rifle based on observed impacts
at long range.
RAPTAR devices are available
in a high-power version for
military application, as well as
an eye-safe version using a
low power for law enforcement
and civilian use. All incorporate
a laser safety key, which
allows only a trained person
to adjust the intensity of the
laser up and down according to
the operator’s level of training
to prevent injury.

Monitoring from afar
Xenics Infrared Solutions
(Stand N3-627) is introducing
the third member of its highresolution Xenics Core Infrared
OEM product family here at
DSEI. The Stirling-cooled XCO640 MWIR (mid-wave IR) module
is based on a new platform
with similar image processing
features to the high-resolution
OEM XSW-640 (short-wave IR)
and XTM-640 (thermal imaging).
Designed for long-range
monitoring in highly demanding
perimeter control, law
enforcement and homeland
security applications, the
XCO-640 is said to provide
unprecedented stability and
optical performance, offering a
rugged set-up with several 22x
zoom lens options and different
focal lengths.
The new XCO-640 imaging
core integrates comprehensive
onboard image processing.
LACE (local area contrast
enhancement) reveals relevant
details of a scene unnoticeable
due to small temperature
differences and long-distance
capturing. The LACE algorithm
dynamically adjusts contrast
variations in certain image
areas by selectively enhancing
bland areas while leaving highcontrast areas unchanged.
AGC (automatic gain control)
enlarges contrast on a global
scale, allowing for manual or
automatic control of the sensor’s
offset and/or gain parameters.
NUC (non-uniformity correction)
compensates, along with badpixel correction, offset and gain
variations for a good image
under varying environmental
conditions. The XCO-640 core
can be operated with different
sensor types, based on either
MCT or InSb detector materials,
and offering up to 300Hz full
frame rate for tracking fastmoving objects.

Not so obvious
Many celebrities and other
high-profile figures would prefer
to drive a lightweight ‘urban
armour’ motorcar that looks
ordinary – in other words, that
is not obviously bulletproof.
Armormax South Africa
(Stand N3-110) is an expert in
customising vehicles for this
market, specialising in the
armouring of luxury vehicles to
level B4 (point-blank range with
a high-powered handgun such
as a .44 Magnum) or level B6
(high-powered rifle, for example,
an AK-47 assault weapon).
According to Armormax’s
managing director, Grant
Anderson, no fewer than 42
heads of state now use its
custom vehicles.
The aim is to retain the
vehicle’s physical appearance
and handling characteristics,
while providing an impenetrable
barrier between the occupants
and would-be attackers.
The company claims its
armouring is so inconspicuous
that it is hardly distinguishable
from an unarmoured vehicle
parked alongside. Only by

leather-upholstered overlaps
covering the gap where the
bullet-resistant glass ends and
the internal armour begins. The
fuel tank is also protected.
"We pride ourselves on
ensuring that all the safety
features of the vehicle, like the
airbags, are retained," Anderson
explained. "We use as much of
our synthetic lightweight armour
as possible, but where it is
unavoidable to use ballistic steel,
it is prepped, primed and painted
to avoid issues with rust and
ensure it blends cosmetically."
Armouring involves some
compromises, however. Only
the driver's window can be
opened, for documents to be
shown. A covert microphone
allows for communication with
someone outside the vehicle. Q

With the ever-growing
population of drones of all
sizes, there is equally a growing
concern for the threat they
pose. Three British companies
− Blighter Surveillance Systems
(Stand S4-154), Chess Dynamics
(Stand S8-140) and Enterprise
Control Systems (Stand S3-260)
− have joined forces to develop
the world’s first Anti-UAV
Defence System (AUDS).
A fully featured production
version of AUDS will be unveiled
here at DSEI.
Graham Beall, managing
director of Chess Dynamics,
said: "It’s expected that
unmanned aircraft systems
[UAS] will be used increasingly
for malicious purposes as they
can carry cameras, weapons,
toxic chemicals and explosives,
and they are already being used
for terrorism, espionage and
smuggling purposes."
AUDS can detect a drone 8km
away using electronic scanning
radar, and track it by means of
infrared and daylight cameras
and specialist software before
disrupting the flight using an
inhibitor to block the radio
signals that control it.
In government-sponsored
counter-UAV trials, the system
was shown to be capable of
detecting and disrupting a
Day 1 p60.indd 4
Knock out drones
variety of fixed- and rotarywing drones in under 15
seconds.
Using a newly installed
optical disruptor, the AUDS
operator can point at a drone
for identification purposes and
disrupt the automatic gain
control settings in the drone’s
camera system, which causes
the drone operator to lose
visibility.
"The use of the optical
disruptor significantly impairs
the drone operator’s ability to
control the craft and forms a
key part of the spectrum of
techniques used by AUDS to
mitigate the malicious use of
drones," said Colin Bullock, chief
executive of Enterprise Control
Systems.
Mark Radford, CEO of Blighter
Surveillance Systems, added
that in more than 150 hours
of live testing in governmentorganised trials, the system has
been very successful against
more than 200 flown sorties
of group 1 UAVs. "Feedback
from our own team and from
customers was for a greater
level of modularity to speed
deployment and to minimise
the need for multiperson set-up
teams. This has now been
implemented in the production
version," he said.
AUDS can be operated from
fixed locations and from mobile
platforms to counter drones in
remote or urban areas.

A jump ahead
GÜNTER ENDRES
The Lockheed Martin F-35B
Lightning II supersonic short
take-off and vertical landing
aircraft made aviation history
in June, when it took off at
the Naval Air Station (NAS) in
Patuxent River, Maryland, from
a WFEL ski jump, the first of its
type to be built anywhere in the
world.
This first ever launch from
a ski jump marked the start
of an initial testing phase to
demonstrate the aircraft’s
ability to take off and land
safely, with the US-UK team
continuing the trials over
the summer before the first
shipboard ski jump launch from
HMS Queen Elizabeth.
Designed, developed and
built by WFEL (Stand S4-160),
a leader in the design and
manufacture of tactical military
bridges, the £2 million jump
was the brainchild of engineer
Greg Roney. It is a 250-ton
land-based structure that
replicates the runway of aircraft
carriers operated by the British
and Italian navies, both of which
will be acquiring the F-35B.
Day 1 p61.indd 4
WFEL chief executive Ian
Wilson said: "We have a
strong heritage in applying
our specialised design and
manufacturing skills to
high-quality and technically
challenging products. We
made a strategic move to
expand our engineering
expertise with the ski jump
after consultation with the
US military, whom we’ve been
working with since the 1980s."
Peter Wilson, test pilot and
ski jump project lead, added:
"Aircraft BF-04 performed well
and I can’t wait until we’re
conducting F-35 ski jumps
from the deck of the Queen
Elizabeth carrier. Until then, the
de-risking that we’re able to
achieve now during phase I of
our ski jump testing will equip
us with valuable data we’ll use
to fuel our phase II efforts."
The F-35 Lightning II is a
single-seat, single-engine,
strike fighter that incorporates
low-observable (stealth)
technologies, defensive avionics,
advanced sensor fusion,
internal and external weapons,
and an advanced prognostic
maintenance capability.

Ammunition for elite forces
Primetake (Stand N6-390), a UK manufacturer of specialist
munitions, is launching two products within its Omega range of
ammunition, including the 7.62mm x 51AP (armour piercing) and
the 7.62mm x 51SB (subsonic) rounds.
The AP round utilises a REACH-compliant tungsten core to
maximise its penetrative capability, successfully engaging 7mm
rolled homogenous armour (Miilux protection 380), while also
achieving penetration at inclined angles of up to 25°. Stealthy
engagement without rifle crack, which can often compromise
location of the sniper, is being offered by the new subsonic round.
Both rounds have been developed for use in high-quality bolt
action sniper rifles. Target markets for the rounds
are elite military, police and special forces units.
Primetake is also presenting the latest update
of its counter-terror enhanced 9mm round, which
provides no ‘over-penetration’ and reduces
ricochet, making it of particular interest to those
involved in sensitive counter-terror or close
protection activities.

Like a cat in th
SAM J BASCH
Unlike cats, humans have poor
vision in the dark, which puts
combatants in the field at a
disadvantage. CILAS of France
(Stand N7-346) has developed
the SLD 500LR long-range laser
detector to help minimise this
threat.
Based on the cat's eye effect,
the system relies on an optical
system, such as a scope,
camera lens or weapon sight,
to return some back-scattered
energy when illuminated by a
laser beam. In this manner, it
can detect, locate and identify
any kind of optical sight system
up to 2,000m away in an urban
or battlefield environment.
CILAS claims the system
to be combat proven, having
been used by the British Army
and the US Marines, as well
as police and security services
in several undisclosed
countries.
The system can be
deployed on vehicles or
mounted for standalone
360° surveillance on a 24-hour
basis.
Equipped with an alarm,
which is automatically triggered
when the cat's eye effect is
detected, the system does not
require an operator to be on
hand all the time.

search and rescue are provided
by South African company
Megaray (Stand N3-110) and
are available for a personal
demonstration at the show.
Megaray searchlights are
able to illuminate at a range
of 2.4-5km, made possible by
a complex Galilean telescopic
optical lens system producing
a uniform collimated beam on
the target. Models have been
designed for use on several
platforms, including armoured
vehicles, large-calibre machine
guns, tanks and vesselmounted units. A popular
vehicle-mounted unit is the
MR2175 (inset).
Covert and semi-covert filters
are available and all models
have an 8Hz strobe mode as
standard, which causes target
disorientation and mental
confusion.

a first showing on a naval
platform launcher (NPL).
The HERO family comprises
six systems − HERO 30,
70, 120, 250, 400 and 900 −
designed for various missions
at different ranges (from 5km
short-range tactical strikes up
to 40km long-range strategic
operations).
In addition, HERO systems
can be provided in an

drawing on the success of the
current SSQ 955 HIDAR and SSQ
906 LOFAR sonobuoy designs,"
Jonathan Cooke, marketing
manager for Ultra Electronics’
underwater warfare segment,
told the DSEI Daily. "With this,
and our substantial body of
design knowledge in traditional
and multistatic active sonar, we
continue to shrink sonobuoy
size and weight even further.
"This reduction in size and
weight allows for increased
capability on both manned and
unmanned platforms, as well as
expanding mission duration." Q
The NPL is on display for the
first time, demonstrating the
utility of HERO in the maritime
environment. In addition to the
NPL, UVision will also exhibit
a vehicle platform launcher
demonstrating the integration

land platforms.
"We have invested
significant resources in the
development of solutions for
the integration of our loitering
systems with manned and
unmanned platforms," said Yair
Dubester, UVision’s president
and CEO. "This capability can
have a crucial impact on the
operational independence of
soldiers on the battlefield, and
their ability to respond quickly,
effectively, and in real time

Force to be
reckoned with
Three models of a new kind
of fast patrol vehicle are
being shown by the CS-Force
Company (Stand N9-164).
Military and security missions,
border and coastguard patrol,
disaster relief transportation,
and mountain rescue are just a
few roles the UK manufacturer
is targeting with its lightweight
and air-transportable, versatile
and high-performance platforms
with all-terrain capability.
Based upon the Polaris
RZR 1000, among the three
prototypes on display is
the Talos, a two/three-seat
patrol vehicle, which as the
original test specimen has
undergone extreme testing and
evaluation in all conditions and
over many different terrains
over a 24-month period. It is
available to view in its ‘used
state’ along with a record of its
testing and preparation over
the development period. Also
present are two production
models of the other variants,
including the Balaur, a four/
five-seat extended version
available in various production
options with higher payload
areas, and Hexing, a two-seat
vehicle for extreme areas where
wading through deep water is
required and areas of extreme
mud or similar environments
are encountered. It will be
available as a four-seat variant
on special request.
An all-wheel drive system is
available on demand, extending
its usability still further. Its
loading platforms can be quickly
reconfigured from load bearing or
casualty evacuation, to hardware
mounting points, or even the
addition of extended seating.
Top laden performance is
in excess of 80mph and the
vehicles are able to negotiate
extreme terrains, with their
climbing ability coupled
with robust strengthened
components. CS-Force says it is
not unusual for these vehicles, at
the hands of experienced drivers,

Czech concern ERA (Stand
N8-322) is addressing the
air defence and surveillance
needs of military and security
forces with its Vera-NG
passive surveillance system
designed for detection, location,
identification and tracking of air,
ground and naval targets. The
system has been successfully
deployed in Europe, Asia and the
Americas, processing emissions
Day 1 p69.indd 5
from radars, jammers, IFF
transponders, DME/TACAN
interrogators, datalink and other
communication, navigation and
surveillance systems.
Vera-NG is a proven Passive
ESM Tracker (PET) that utilises
established Time Difference of
Arrival (TDOA) multi-lateration
techniques to localise, track
and identify the broad range of
emissions from low VHF up to
janes.com/dsei
high Ku-band signal sources.
This passive technology allows
for virtually undetectable
operation, as no signals are
sent from the system. It
provides long-term ELINT
information and has no need for
frequency allocations. Because
it emits zero electromagnetic
energy, Vera-NG offers a
covert, electronic and physical,
surveillance capability that is
not vulnerable to anti-radar
weapon systems, allowing
armed forces to conduct longterm cross-border surveillance
without alerting neighbouring
states.
The system’s design is
fully mobile and can easily be
transported in general-purpose
vehicles. It can be delivered in
a ‘roll-on/roll-off’ configuration
including a fully configured
mobile command centre
containing all the processing,
analysis and observation
equipment − thus ensuring
rapid tactical deployment.
One of the most promising
technologies that could alter
the field of air surveillance is
the Passive Coherent Location
(PCL) system. For targets that
do not emit signals, ERA’s
next PCL system will track and
classify targets using reflections
of existing third-party emitters
such as FM radio.

Finmeccanica’s
AgustaWestland helicopter
business (Stand S5-110) has
closed out the UK Ministry
of Defence’s Rotary Wing
Unmanned Aerial System
(RWUAS) Capability Concept
Demonstration (CCD) contract.
Awarded in 2013, the
RWUAS programme has been
designed to inform Ministry
of Defence and Royal Navy
thinking as to future tactical
maritime unmanned air
systems.
AgustaWestland, as
prime contractor, has led an
industry team comprising
Atlas Elektronik UK
(bringing expertise in mine
countermeasures), BAE
Systems (surface ship combat
management systems),
Pelydryn (airborne hydrographic
survey), and Finmeccanica’s
own Selex ES business
(surveillance sensors).
Under the capability study
element of the RWUAS CCD,
AgustaWestland investigated a
range of rotorcraft size options
that could deliver persistent
maritime capability. The project
also investigated the concept
Day 1 p71.indd 4
of a rotorcraft system that
could provide minehunting,
hydrographic survey and
airborne surveillance capability
with the ability to operate from
a frigate size ship.
The flying element of
the CCD was carried out in
three phases at Llanbedr
Airfield in Wales in May this
year using the SW-4 Solo
optionally manned helicopter.
Flight operations included
demonstrating the operability
of a RWUAS, pseudo-deck
landings, and various mission
capabilities.
Phase I operability
demonstrations included
launch and recovery, mission
management, integration
with the Outfit DNA(2) combat
management system, and
degraded operations.
Phase II included a series of
pseudo-deck landings being
made by the SW-4 Solo in
automated mode onto a towed
trailer that replicated the
deck of a frigate; and Phase III
included the demonstration of
maritime security and littoral
reconnaissance missions
utilising the mission sensors
to identify various targets of
interest.
During the demonstration, the
SW-4 Solo helicopter was flown
as a surrogate unmanned air
system under automatic control
from a ground station with a
71
safety pilot on board. The flying
phase as a whole included 27
hours of demonstration flying,
and 22 automatic simulated
deck landings using the SW-4
Solo technology demonstrator.
Based on the proven PZLSwidnik SW-4 light singleengine helicopter, the SW-4
Solo has been designed for
both unmanned and piloted
operations, providing users with
maximum operational flexibility.
In its unmanned variant, the
SW-4 is capable of performing
a number of roles, including
intelligence, surveillance
and reconnaissance, as well
as cargo resupply; in its
piloted configuration, the
helicopter can undertake a
number of activities, including
transportation of personnel,
surveillance and intervention. Q

Pavilion highlights
UK
DSEI offers an important
showcase for the UK’s worldleading defence sector, and
this year ADS will welcome 120
companies in the UK Pavilion to
meet domestic and international
delegations, potential customers
and suppliers.
The UK is the largest exporter
of defence equipment and
services in Europe and globally
second only to the USA.
USA
The USA Pavilion at DSEI 2015
is larger than the past two
editions − the Navy League of
the United States is the lead
supporting association.
With new initiatives for
the event as a whole and a
focus on delivering a stronger
experience to the exhibitors, the
pavilion has received support
from industry, government, and
association/media partners.
Germany
The German Pavilion benefits
from guidance from the Group
for Defence Technology Fairs
(GWM), which formed in 1996
to focus on demonstrating
the capabilities of the German
defence technology industry at
major international trade fairs.
The pavilion has expanded
this year, reflecting the greater
focus on international trade.
