Armement : les prises de commande à l'exportation de l'industrie française se sont élevées à 8,3 milliards d'euros en 2019

Le bilan des exportations d'armement françaises 2019 atteint le montant de 8,3 milliards d'euros, selon les chiffres de La Tribune. Les ventes d'armes françaises baissent de 11,1% par rapport à 2018 (9,1 milliards), une année où la France avait enregistré sa troisième meilleure performance en 20 ans ; toutefois les prises de commande en 2019 consolident la place de la France dans le top 5 des exportateurs mondiaux. La Tribune rappelle que sur 10 ans, l'industrie d'armement française a vendu pour plus de 86 milliards d'euros d'armements à l'exportation. La part des achats de systèmes d'armes français par des pays européens progresse par rapport à 2018 (25%), avec 45 % du total des prises de commande de 2019, gr'ce notamment à la signature de trois grands contrats : Naval Group en Belgique, Airbus Helicopters en Hongrie (hélicoptères H225M et H145M) et Thales et Airbus en Espagne (satellites de communication sécurisée, Spainsat NG I et II).

    US clears $3 billion Apache sale for Qatar

    By: Aaron Mehta WASHINGTON — The U.S. State Department has cleared a potential foreign military sale deal of 24 AH-64E Apache attack helicopters, in a deal that could be worth up to $3 billion. The proposed sale would double Qatar's previous procurement of AH-64Es, which are used for “close air support, armed reconnaissance, and anti-tank warfare missions,” according to a notice posted on the Defense Security Cooperation Agency's website Thursday. “The helicopters will provide a long-term defensive and offensive capability to the Qatar peninsula as well as enhance the protection of key oil and gas infrastructure and platforms.” The notification is not a guarantee of a final sale. Congress can still weigh in, and once cleared by the Hill, negotiations between customer and supplier often lead to different prices or quantities. Included in the sale are the 24 helicopter bodies, 52 T700-GE-701D engines; 26 AN/ASQ-170 Modernized Target Acquisition and Designation Sight (MTADS); 26 AN/AAQ-11 Modernized Pilot Night Vision Sensors; 2,500 AGM-114R Hellfire missiles; 28 M230 30mm automatic chain guns, as well as other equipment and training. Primary work will be done at Boeing's Mesa, Ariz., facility, Lockheed Martin's Orlando, Fla,, location and General Electric's Cincinnati, OH facility, as well as other locations. There are no known industrial offsets in the deal. https://www.defensenews.com/global/mideast-africa/2019/05/09/us-clears-3-billion-apache-sale-for-qatar
