Citar
The Netherlands has ordered an extra 12 Thales Australia Bushmaster 4x4 protected mobility vehicles, Thales announced on 30 June.

The latest vehicles will be delivered to the Netherlands in 2016, the company said.

The Netherlands first ordered 25 Bushmasters in 2006 as an urgent operational requirement (UOR) for use by the Royal Netherlands Army in Afghanistan. Since then the country has made a series of almost annual small-batch follow-on orders, either to expand the fleet or to replace lost vehicles.

The latest order brings the total number of vehicles procured by the Netherlands to 98.

Romania May Restore Conscription

http://www.defensenews.com/story/defens ... e/29583685
Citar
Romanian Defense Minister Mircea Dusa is aiming to restore conscription as a result of Russia's increased military activities in Eastern Europe and its intervention in Ukraine, reports local daily Gandul.

The planned move would follow similar initiatives in other Eastern European countries. In Lithuania, the country's parliament passed a bill in March to temporarily restore conscription for a period of at least five years. Lithuania's Prime Minister Algirdas Butkevicius said the decision resulted from "changes in the geopolitical situation in the region" which forced the country to increase its "defense capacity in response".

Meanwhile, Czech Defense Minister Martin Stropnicky has announced plans to increase the Czech Republic's troop level from the current 16,000 to as much as 27,000 by 2025. The government may also revive conscription, as there are ongoing discussions on the measure.

The Romanian Parliament is currently drafting a law with the aim of introducing voluntary military internship for the country's youth.

Ninei Peia, an MP from the ruling Social Democratic Party, said the initiative was a "very good project for Romania, in particular due to the geopolitical situation in Eastern Europe".

 According to the draft law, Romanians aged 18 to 25 will be enabled to take part in internships with the country's armed forces for a period of six months. The program is designed to encourage the youth to join the military.

Parece que foi desenhado há uns anos atrás para reduzir o ruído em campos de tiro situados perto de áreas residenciais. Não é para ser utilizado em conflito real.

http://www.janes.com/article/52871/singapore-commissions-peacekeeper-protected-response-vehicle
Citar
As part of ongoing modernisation efforts centred on automation and mobility enhancements, the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) on 8 July commissioned a new 6x6 protected mobility vehicle that is designed for island-defence operations.

The Peacekeeper Protected Response Vehicle (PRV), which is based on Renault Trucks Defense's Higuard mine resistant ambush protected (MRAP) platform, was commissioned by Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen at a 50th anniversary parade organised by the 2nd People's Defence Force (2PDF) Command at the western Clementi Camp.

Ng noted in his address that the induction of the Peacekeeper was a significant capability enhancement for 2PDF - also known as the Island Defence Task Force - which is operating an ageing fleet of 4x4 Commando V200 armoured personnel carriers (APCs). The V200 platforms have been in service with the Singapore Army since 1970 and are planned to be phased out in 2016.

IHS Jane's understands that 40 Peacekeeper PRVs have been acquired for the SAF, although details of the delivery schedule were not disclosed. At least seven vehicles were showcased in dynamic and static displays at Clementi Camp during the parade.

"We mark another milestone in growing new capabilities for 2PDF Command by commissioning the PRVs, named the Peacekeeper, which will provide better means for 2PDF Command to keep Singapore's key installations and facilities safe," said Ng. "The current threats from extremist groups like the [Islamic State] and [Islamic State]-inspired lone-wolf attacks are clear and present, and [have] affected all countries globally…2PDF Command must therefore continue to update its doctrine, tactics, and equipment to meet these new challenges."

The Peacekeeper PRV has been customised by the Defence Science and Technology Agency (DSTA) to meet the SAF's requirements. The vehicle - which accommodates 12 personnel including a driver, vehicle commander, and 10 dismounts - measures 7.28 m long, 2.65 m wide, and 3.53 m tall (with roof weapon installed). Weighing 21.5 tonnes at full load, it is capable of achieving a maximum road speed of 90 km/h.

In terms of armaments, the Peacekeeper PRV is equipped with a roof-mounted RCWS that is compatible with one of the three weapons depending on mission requirements: a 7.62 mm machine gun, a 12.7 mm heavy machine gun, or a 40 mm automatic grenade launcher. The RCWS, which is operated by the vehicle commander, also features a daylight TV camera and infrared (IR) imager as well as a laser-rangefinder that enables the vehicle to engage targets up to a maximum range of 600 m.

Besides enhanced ballistic protection for troops, the new vehicles also incorporate a host of safety features, including a rear-mounted video camera that offers the driver increased situational awareness, as well as a vehicle fire suppression system in the engine and passenger compartments

 Finland To Establish Quick Response Units Along Russian Border

  http://www.defensenews.com/story/defens ... a/30197931  
Citar
Finland's Armed Forces Command has added  a quick response dynamic with plans to locate rapid reaction units (RRUs) to military districts that fall under the command of the country's four military provinces.  

Defense Minister Jussi Niinistö described the initiative as necessary to strengthen operational readiness and bolster Finland's overall defense and deterrence capabilities against rising regional tensions over Russia's military intervention in Ukraine.

   The focus of the deployment for the RRUs, which constitute a new feature within Finland's territorial-based, infantry-centered defense strategy, will be military districts close to Finland's 833-mile border with Russia. (...)

   The RRUs are intended to comprise a mix of career and soldiers, as well as troops drawn from special forces units, retrained reservists and conscripts  (...)

   The Finnish armed forces have a standing strength of 12,000 troops. The conscript-centered armed forces, based on current reservist numbers, can mobilize up to 230,000 combat troops and service personnel within one to four weeks. (...)

  The growing all-party support for a much larger defense budget is being driven by unprecedented public support for a stronger military organization, a greater deterrence capability and a closer relationship with NATO. (...)

 The military's modernization program has reinforced shortfalls in the Navy's and Army's operating capabilities.

The Navy took delivery of its first Jehu-class fast landing boats in June, filling a void in its littoral fleet  (...)

The Army's purchase of 20 NH90 helicopters has improved its tactical and transport capability (...)

Nexter, KMW Seal Deal To Forge Joint Venture

PARIS — State-owned Nexter of France and family-controlled Kraus-Maffei Wegmann of Germany signed an agreement on July 29 to set up a 50:50 joint venture holding company, marking a major consolidation in the European land weapons sector.

“The alliance of KMW and Nexter creates a group with the momentum and innovative force required to succeed and prosper in international competition,” the companies said in a joint statement.

A closing of the deal is expected early in January, after clearance by European Union, French, German and US regulatory authorities, company and defense ministry sources in France and Germany said. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States is required to approve the deal as KMW has a US subsidiary.

The agreement is expected to generate benefits totaling €60 million ($66 million) for the two companies in five years’ time, amid growing competition from armored vehicle producers around the world.

The two companies announced in May 2014 their plan to create the holding company, which carries the project name of KMW and Nexter Together, or KANT. The company will be based in Amsterdam. A competition will be held to determine the new company's final name.

Nexter sees each partner finding €35 million of benefits in five years time through the alliance, an industry source said. The partnership seeks to cut costs, such as buying raw material and manufacturing tools. The partners seek to boost foreign sales by agreeing which products to pitch and fielding a single export sales team.

Exports account for 56 percent of annual sales for Nexter and some 80 percent for KMW, a French defense official said.

Nexter and KMW are in direct competition for an armored vehicle contract in one of the Baltic states, the industry source said. The French company sent the Titus 6x6 armored vehicle to Qatar for trials, with a first demonstration in June and a second currently in progress. The vehicle faces competition from vehicles made by Patria and Iveco.

The alliance could open its doors to other partners such as Italian gun maker Oto Melara or French light vehicle maker Renault Trucks Defense (RTD), the French defense official said. But RTD’s parent company, Volvo, would need to decide on such a move.

France and Germany have started early studies on a next-generation tank to succeed the Leclerc and Leopard, the official said. France's 2014-19 multiyear military budget lacks funds for acquisition of a Leclerc successor, so the replacement could feature in the next budget law. Nexter has won a contract for modernization of the Leclerc.

The companies could self-finance work for vehicles for export markets and the government could buy off the shelf, such as the French special forces bought the RTD Sherpa vehicle, the French defense official said.

The Griffon, a planned six-wheel troop carrier in the €5 billion Scorpion Army modernization program, is also aimed at export markets and will be built around a simple design rather the more usual technical sophistication, the  official said.

Production of current products will continue, but the partners could invest company funds to develop new vehicles, the industry source said. There is scope for designing and building a new medium-weight armored vehicle as the two companies already produce 4x4 and 8x8 vehicles.

Nexter Chairman Philippe Burtin and KMW Chairman Frank Haun signed the main document that sets outs the agreement. French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian and the German Defense Ministry's parliamentary secretary, Markus Grubel, attended the corporate signing, which required political support, at the French Defense Ministry in Paris.

The annexes of the agreement run to thousands of pages, which the top executives have initialed.

There is political debate in Germany over the partnership with Nexter, with a call for protection of key technology. But there is a lack of clarity on what that sensitive know-how is, the industry source said.

Haun effectively opened the Nexter alliance talks five years ago, according to the industry source. The political scene in Germany changed with general elections in 2013, which allowed a more positive approach to a partnership with the French state-owned company, the same source said.

Even before that, there had been an attempt to forge a Franco-German partnership 10 years ago, but there was a lack of enthusiasm at Nexter then, a defense specialist said.

There is strong German debate on a domestic or European consolidation, with land weapons specialist Rheinmetall seen by some as a preferable partner for KMW. But the Bode family preferred to back the deal with Nexter.

The partnership will have annual sales of almost €2 billion euros and an order book of €9 billion, and employ more than 6,000 staff, the companies said.

(defensa.com) El embajador de Nicaragua en Rusia, Juan Ernesto Vásquez Araya, ha anunciado que su país estudia comprar estos carros de combate para reemplazar a los T-55. Las declaraciones han  tenido lugar e el marco de la participación, por primera vez, de Nicaragua en el biathlon de carros de combate que comenzó el pasado 1 de agosto en Rusia y que se extenderá hasta el próximo día 15 y en el que trece países participan en una singular competición que pone a prueba la formación de las tripulaciones de carros de combate y las cualidades de sus máquinas.

Los Juegos Militares Internacionales 2015 (ARMI 2015) que es como se conocen, reúnen cerca de Moscú a tripulaciones de carros de combate de 13 países (Angola, Armenia, China, India, Kazajistán, Kirguizistán, Kuwait, Mongolia, Rusia, Serbia, Nicaragua, Tayikistán y Venezuela). Los participantes emplean el carro de combate T-72B3 para la competición y realizan con él carreras de obstáculos con relevos, marchas forzadas y prácticas de tiro con fuego real.

La posibilidad de probar este carro de combate por parte de las tripulaciones de Nicaragua ha permitido familiarizarse con este vehículo, conocer sus características y evaluarlo personalmente. El año pasado Nicaragua participó como observador pero este año recibió una invitación para participar. Nicaragua posee actualmente 31 carros de combate T-55 en condiciones de servicio después de que desde comienzos de los ochenta adquiriera varios lotes de estos carros de procedencias diversas y que han ido dándose de baja. (J.N.G.)
