Thales et CS Group s’allient pour proposer aux Marines un nouveau système de navigation

Thales et CS Group, spécialiste des systèmes critiques intelligents cyberprotégés, ont annoncé conclure un partenariat afin de proposer un système de navigation plus performant, résilient et cybersécurisé au profit des b'timents de surface des Marines. L'objectif affiché est de permettre aux marins d'assurer leurs missions, alors que les menaces sont de plus en plus concrètes dans le cyberespace, induisant des risques de brouillage des solutions de radio navigation, comme le GPS. Les deux groupes affirment proposer « une nouvelle approche de la navigation maritime », à travers un système de navigation inertielle maritime compact ne nécessitant aucune calibration au cours de son cycle de vie. Le système est destiné à assurer les fonctions de pointage, de gyrocompas, de localisation et de navigation de haute précision. Associant les technologies complémentaires développées par Thales et CS Group, la production de ce nouveau système de navigation maritime mobilisera les sites de production et d'intégration des deux groupes, situés à Ch'tellerault et à Aix-en-Provence.

    Tank maker takeover: Germany’s Rheinmetall eyes acquisition of rival KMW

    By: Sebastian Sprenger COLOGNE, Germany — German armored vehicles-maker Rheinmetall has confirmed initial talks about an acquisition of its rival Krauss-Maffei Wegmann, a move that would reorder the industry landscape involved in producing a new European main battle tank. According to a brief Rheinmetall statement, on the table is the takeover of KMW in the context of its partnership with French tank maker Nexter, known under the name KNDS. KMW and Nexter each own 50 percent of their Franco-German joint venture. KNDS and Rheinmetall were expected to pitch separate design proposals next year for the Main Ground Combat System, a novel tank meant as one of three signature military projects propelling the Berlin-Paris defense partnership. It remains to be seen how the dynamic of a KMW acquisition by Rheinmetall would play into those plans. Citing industry experts, the newspaper Die Welt on Tuesday wrote that the French government, through state-owned Nexter's deal with KMW, is expected to have a say in the transaction. Paris may even have a right of first refusal for KMW's portion in KNDS, the newspaper reported. Rheinmetall's statement on Monday noted that a final decision regarding the way ahead depends on a “multitude of political, economic and regulatory” aspects still to be sorted out. A takeover deal could put to rest the question of what vehicles German defense companies will pitch for multibillion-dollar modernization programs of the U.S. ground services. Rheinmetall is already offering the Lynx armored fighting vehicle as a Bradley replacement. KMW could make another attempt at selling the Puma vehicle, though Rheinmetall is also part of the joint venture producing that vehicle for the German forces. https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2018/11/27/tank-maker-takeover-germanys-rheinmetall-eyes-acquisition-of-rival-kmw
