Le salon Eurosatory se tiendra à Villepinte du 13 au 17 juin 2022

Eurosatory, le salon international consacré à la défense et à la sécurité terrestres et aéroterrestres, aura lieu du 13 au 17 juin à Villepinte, près de Paris. « La crise ukrainienne, représentative de l'évolution des combats asymétriques vers des conflits interétatiques de haute intensité, amène les États membres de l'Union Européenne à décider d'investir davantage dans leurs capacités de défense et de sécurité. Plusieurs pays ont déjà augmenté considérablement leurs budgets », précise un communiqué. « 227 délégations venues de 65 pays » sont déjà attendues, indique le général Charles Beaudouin, PDG du COGES (Commissariat Général des Expositions et Salons du GICAT), qui organise le salon Eurosatory. Il attend également le commissaire européen Thierry Breton, qui défend le projet d'une Europe de la défense. « Une révision des modèles et des capacités de leurs forces armées et de sécurité pour s'adapter aux nouvelles menaces », pourrait s'avérer nécessaire, selon le COGES. Les quelques exposants russes qui s'étaient déjà inscrits pour participer au salon ont été désinscrits.

    BAE Systems Secures New Contracts for Production of the U.S Navy’s CANES

    Posted on November 12, 2020 by Seapower Staff MCLEAN, Va. — BAE Systems has been awarded contracts worth more than $30 million to produce and integrate a mission-critical information warfare platform for U.S Navy vessels to help Sailors execute their missions and remain connected while at sea, the company said in a Nov. 11 release. The U.S Navy has issued two task orders for Consolidated Afloat Network Enterprise Services (CANES) for two Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, a Virginia-class submarine, and two Blue Ridge-class command ships. “These two task orders permit us to continue our high-quality, high volume production and integration service, assembling and delivering CANES to the Navy safely and affordably,” said Mark Keeler, vice president and general manager of BAE Systems' Integrated Defense Solutions business. “CANES takes advantage of commercial-off-the-shelf insertion, which brings operational agility to the warfighter and savings to the U.S. Navy.” Under the first task order from the Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR) San Diego, BAE Systems will produce fully integrated CANES racks for two command ships, which are expected to be completed by February 2022. Under the second task order, the company will produce fully integrated CANES racks for two destroyers and a submarine, which are expected to be completed by March 2022. Work will be performed at BAE Systems' 281,000 square-foot state-of-the-art production facility in Summerville, South Carolina. CANES consolidates and enhances five existing legacy network programs and it serves as a single support framework for all command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence (C4I) applications that require dedicated infrastructure to operate. https://seapowermagazine.org/bae-systems-secures-new-contracts-for-production-of-the-u-s-navys-canes/

    Army awards $200M for satellite support contract

    By: Mark Pomerleau The Army has awarded Harris Corp. a follow-on contract worth nearly $218 million to support the service's wideband satellite operations centers and management sites. The contract — the Wideband Satellite Communications Operations and Technical Support II — will deliver critical communications to war fighters globally, company leaders said in a December press release. WGS satellites are used to provide communication capabilities to U.S. and international forces. Harris will support global networks and operations center at 21 locations across the globe, providing operations and maintenance, life-cycle engineering, on-site technical assistance, equipment installation, depot-level repair, logistics, cybersecurity and training and sustainment. The award comes after Harris also executed the first Wideband Satellite Communications Operations and Technical Support contract worth $160 million. “Harris assists the Army with all facets of wideband SATCOM support, helping to keep these global communications systems performing so that war fighters are protected and get the information they need to stay connected and ensure mission success,” Chris Forseth, vice president and general manager of Harris Space Superiority, said. https://www.c4isrnet.com/c2-comms/2018/12/31/army-awards-200m-for-satellite-support-contract
