    Aviation firms Aero Precision, Kellstrom Defense merge

    by Marc Selinger US-based Aero Precision and Kellstrom Defense have merged their operations to form a military aircraft sustainment firm named AllClear, according to a 17 August announcement. The combined entity, which is privately owned, supports “over 40 platforms” for the US military and allied forces. It is based in El Segundo, California, where Kellstrom was headquartered, and its CEO is Darryl Mayhorn, who previously led Aero Precision. AllClear said it has been integrating the two companies since March, when Aero Precision, which was a parts distribution firm, acquired Kellstrom, which specialised in maintenance, repairs, and overhauls. When the acquisition occurred, Aero Precision said the deal would streamline sustainment by creating a “new bundle of parts and services”. https://www.janes.com/defence-news/news-detail/aviation-firms-aero-precision-kellstrom-defense-merge

    Thales va fournir à Paris et Londres un système autonome de lutte anti-mines

    PARIS (Reuters) - Le groupe français d'électronique de défense Thales a annoncé jeudi qu'il allait fournir à la Royal Navy britannique et à la Marine nationale française le premier système au monde autonome de lutte anti-mines entièrement intégré. La livraison de ces systèmes, qui ont été testés en conditions réelles en France et en Grande-Bretagne, est prévue à partir de 2022, a indiqué le groupe dans un communiqué, sans préciser le montant de ce contrat. Thales et le britannique BAE Systems ont remporté en 2015 le contrat du programme franco-britannique de lutte contre les mines marines, baptisé MMCM (Maritime Mine Counter Measures).
