Le ministère des Armées a consommé tous ses crédits en 2020

La ministre des Armées, Florence Parly, a déclaré, mardi 12 janvier, lors de son audition à l'Assemblée nationale, que son ministère a consommé les 37,5 milliards d'euros qui étaient prévus en loi de finances initiale pour 2020, malgré les perturbations induites par la crise sanitaire. Elle a également indiqué que le ministère des Armées a bénéficié de 800 millions d'euros de crédits dégelés en novembre, une « date qui n'avait jamais été aussi anticipée par rapport à la fin de l'année ». En 2021, le ministère doit présenter une actualisation de la loi de programmation militaire (LPM), dont la mise en œuvre devra intervenir avant la fin de l'année 2021. Cette actualisation doit notamment permettre de préciser l'évolution des effectifs pour les années 2024 et 2025 et de vérifier la bonne adéquation entre les objectifs fixés dans la LPM, les réalisations et les moyens consacrés. Florence Parly a précisé que ce processus doit aussi déterminer les menaces auxquelles la France risque d'être confrontée dans les années à venir.

    Equinor extends CHC Helicopter contracts in Norway

    Recently, Equinor confirmed extensions for both its Tampen/Oseberg and Heidrun contracts with CHC for one year, effective from September 2020 to August 2021. This is for three Sikorsky S-92 search and rescue aircraft and three super puma A332L/L1. The aircraft are located at the Johan Sverdrup, Oseberg, Statfjord B and Heidrun rigs, and cover the area expanding from the Northern North Sea into the Norwegian Sea. The contracts offer the opportunity for further extensions. “We are delighted that we continue to enjoy Equinor's confidence in our ability to not only execute their service safely but also with outstanding efficiency and levels of customer service,” said Per Andre Rykhus, general operations manager, CHC Helikopter Services Norway. “We will continue to evolve our services and embrace the latest technology to best meet customer needs, building on our decades of experience in Norwegian oil and gas activity.” https://www.skiesmag.com/press-releases/equinor-extends-chc-helicopter-contracts-in-norway/

    How Relativity Space plans to win the Pentagon’s launch contracts

    Nathan Strout Relativity Space wants to be the first company to launch an entirely 3D-printed rocket into orbit and it wants the Pentagon as a customer. While the COVID-19 pandemic has thrown a wrench into plans, a growing number of companies are looking to provide small and medium launch services to the U.S. government. The establishment of the U.S. Space Force, Space Development Agency and U.S. Space Command in 2019 signaled the Pentagon's ambitious plans for launching more payloads into space, and providing a vehicle for just a portion of those launches would prove lucrative to any company. For Vice President of Business Development and Government Affairs Josh Brost, Relativity Space stands out from the competition, bringing disruptive 3D printing technology to bear on the small launch sector. Prior to joining Relativity, he worked at SpaceX for nine years, where he was responsible for the company's government sales. Even as the company works toward the launch of its first Terran One rocket in fall 2021, Relativity has worked to secure contracts in the commercial world. In June, the company announced it had secured a deal with Iridium Communications for six dedicated launches to low Earth orbit, with the first launch taking place no earlier than 2023. That same month, Relativity also announced a Right of Entry Agreement with the 30th Space Wing for development of rocket launch facilities at Vandenberg Air Force Base. Recently, Brost and Relativity Space co-founder and CEO Tim Ellis spoke with C4ISRNET about how the company plans to win launch contracts with the U.S. government. https://www.c4isrnet.com/battlefield-tech/space/2020/09/21/how-relativity-space-plans-to-win-the-pentagons-launch-contracts/
