    BAE Systems receives $500 million contract to provide new turret for Netherlands’ CV90s

    January 14, 2021 - BAE Systems will provide the Royal Netherlands Army with a new turret for 122 CV90s as part of an extensive mid-life upgrade program. BAE Systems has signed an extensive mid-life upgrade contract worth more than $500 million with the Dutch Defence Materiel Organization (DMO) for the Royal Netherlands Army's fleet of 122 CV90s, with an option for an additional 19 vehicles. The upgrade program with a new turret will vastly improve the vehicle's capabilities while providing crews with improved protection and ergonomics for increased combat efficiency. The new CV90 turret, developed by BAE Systems Hägglunds in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, represents a leap forward in design and functionality. The main weapon position is changed to provide even better vehicle balance and enable new ways to introduce a variety of weaponry for increased lethality. It also offers significant ergonomic improvements to benefit the vehicle's crew. The enhanced turret design is built on years of combat-proven experience, continuous vehicle improvements, and data analysis from the CV90 User Club – the seven nations currently operating CV90 fleets. The improvements are also based on a recent study conducted by the Royal Netherlands Army, and a BAE Systems' analysis of cognitive load on Infantry Fighting Vehicle (IFV) crews to address man-machine interaction. The result gives crews increased advantages, such as the ability to choose intuitive and effective modes of operation as well as shorten the time to detection, identification, decision-making, and engagement. “This is an important step to make sure that our Infantry Fighting Vehicles and our Army are well prepared for many years to come. This mid-life upgrade will also result in a lowering of the vehicles lifetime cost, at the same time as keeping our soldiers safe in the face of new threats,” said Colonel Norbert Moerkens, the Royal Netherlands Army's head of strategy and plans. Work is already underway to equip the Dutch CV9035 vehicles with several enhanced capabilities such as an Active Protection System (APS) and Anti-Tank Guided Missile (ATGM), as well as a new Electro-Optic Aiming System (EOPS) which gives additional situation awareness. The latest upgrade also includes future-proofing the electronics by upgrading to the fourth generation digital backbone, with embedded and more robust cybersecurity. “We are committed to delivering the most modern and adaptable IFVs to meet our customers' requirements and are extremely proud of the technological developments underway as part of this significant mid-life upgrade program,” said Tommy Gustafsson-Rask, managing director of BAE Systems Hägglunds. “We look forward to supporting our Dutch customer increase its combat efficiency on the future battlefield.” More than 20 Dutch companies are involved in the supply chain for the mid-life upgrade program to include mechanical and electrical components to BAE Systems Hägglunds and the main subsystem suppliers, which will support the Dutch defense industrial base for many years to come. There are about 1,300 CV90s of numerous variants in service with Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. The vehicle has a combat-proven track record and is designed to accommodate future growth to meet evolving missions.

    Airbus Helicopters signe un contrat de soutien global pour le Tigre

    Des engagements en matière de niveau de performance ont été pris afin d'augmenter le taux de disponibilité et de garantir les capacités de soutien des hélicoptères Tigre dans les dix prochaines années. Marignane – Airbus Helicopters et l'Organisation conjointe de coopération en matière d'armement (OCCAR) ont signé un contrat de soutien global trilatéral visant à accroître le taux de disponibilité des hélicoptères Tigre exploités par les forces armées françaises, allemandes et espagnoles. Cet accord de soutien à long terme garantit la disponibilité et la facilité de maintenance du Tigre au-delà des dix prochaines années. Ce contrat couvre des éléments critiques tels que l'amélioration continue et le traitement des obsolescences, ainsi que les réparations et la livraison des pièces de rechange garanties par tous les fournisseurs concernés. Il répond par ailleurs aux besoins individuels de chaque client, en fonction de ses scénarios opérationnels et de déploiement. En France, par exemple, l'accord garantit un taux de disponibilité des pièces de rechange allant jusqu'à 98 % et une simplification de la logistique, Airbus Helicopters assurant directement l'approvisionnement en pièces neuves, ainsi qu'en pièces réparées et autres consommables. « Nous sommes fiers d'assurer le soutien à long terme du Tigre, certains de ces appareils étant constamment déployés sur d'importants thé'tres d'opérations. Ce contrat permet à nos clients de planifier avec fiabilité leurs opérations de soutien pour les dix prochaines années », a déclaré Bruno Even, CEO d'Airbus Helicopters. Les 183 Tigre livrés à la France, à l'Allemagne, à l'Espagne et à l'Australie cumulent jusqu'ici plus de 130 000 heures de vol. Déployé pour la première fois par la France en Afghanistan en 2009, et peu après par les forces armées allemandes et espagnoles, le Tigre continue de jouer un rôle décisif sur les thé'tres d'opérations, gr'ce à sa grande polyvalence, sa capacité furtive et sa grande manoeuvrabilité. https://www.airbus.com/newsroom/press-releases/fr/2019/12/airbus-helicopters-signs-global-support-contract-for-tiger-helicopters.html

  • Google Drops Out of Pentagon's $10 Billion Cloud Competition

    Google Drops Out of Pentagon's $10 Billion Cloud Competition

    By Naomi Nix Alphabet Inc.'s Google has decided not to compete for the Pentagon's cloud-computing contract valued at as much as $10 billion, saying the project may conflict with its corporate values. The project, known as the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure cloud, or JEDI, involves transitioning massive amounts of Defense Department data to a commercially operated cloud system. Companies are due to submit bids for the contract, which could last as long as 10 years, on Oct. 12th. Google's announcement on Monday came just months after the company decided not to renew its contract with a Pentagon artificial intelligence program, after extensive protests from employees of the internet giant about working with the military. The company then released a set of principles designed to evaluate what kind of artificial intelligence projects it would pursue. “We are not bidding on the JEDI contract because first, we couldn't be assured that it would align with our AI Principles," a Google spokesman said in a statement. "And second, we determined that there were portions of the contract that were out of scope with our current government certifications.” The spokesman added that Google is “working to support the U.S. government with our cloud in many ways.” The Tech Workers Coalition, which advocates for giving employees a say in technology company decisions, said in a statement that Google's decision to withdraw from the cloud competition stemmed from “sustained” pressure from tech workers who “have significant power, and are increasingly willing to use it.” Read more: Google Won't Renew Pentagon AI Drone Deal After Staff Backlash Google is behind other technology companies such as Amazon.com Inc. and Microsoft Corp. in obtaining government cloud-security authorizations that depend on the sensitivity of data a service is hosting. The JEDI contract attracted widespread interest from technology companies struggling to catch up with Amazon in the burgeoning federal government market for cloud services. Final requirements for the project were released in July after a months-long lobbying campaign in Washington by tech companies including Microsoft, International Business Machines Corp. and Oracle Corp. that opposed the Pentagon's plans to choose just one winner for the project instead of splitting the contract among a number of providers. “Had the JEDI contract been open to multiple vendors, we would have submitted a compelling solution for portions of it,” the Google spokesman said. “Google Cloud believes that a multi-cloud approach is in the best interest of government agencies, because it allows them to choose the right cloud for the right workload.” In a report to Congress, the Defense Department said making multiple awards under current acquisition law would be a slow process that “could prevent DoD from rapidly delivering new capabilities and improved effectiveness to the warfighter that enterprise-level cloud computing can enable.” The department also said it expects “to maintain contracts with numerous cloud providers to access specialized capabilities not available under the JEDI Cloud contract.” — With assistance by Ben Brody, and Josh Eidelson https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-10-08/google-drops-out-of-pentagon-s-10-billion-cloud-competition
