Sho DA I LY LAND THURSDAY 16 JUNE En vert et bleu Si Eurosatory reste le Salon de référence de la Défense terrestre et aéroterrestre, on constate en parcourant ses allées la montée en puissance, forte et rapide, des exposants relevant du domaine de la Sécurité. Aux côtés du gris et du kaki, le bleu et le noir des services de police et de Gendarmerie, le rouge et le blanc des industriels de Sécurité et de Secours viennent enrichir la palette des couleurs habituelles. Le mouvement ne date pas d’aujourd’hui, mais il trouve toutefois cette année un nouvel élan, au rythme de plus en plus soutenu des attentats et des attaques du grand banditisme qui secouent le monde. S’il ne fallait citer que l’exemple français, on se souviendra que les attentats de SEA incorporating UGS exhibitors JEUDI 16 JUIN ➔ PAR FRÉDÉRIC LERT w Paris, en novembre dernier, ont eu un impact direct et profond sur les investissements en équipements de Sécurité. Le RETEX des attaques islamistes dans la capitale française a donné lieu à des échanges nourris entre services gouvernementaux et industriels pour aboutir, in fine, à une vingtaine d’expressions de besoins ciblées : mini drones pouvant fonctionner en intérieur, sécurisation et ségrégation des réseaux de communication au profit des équipes de secours et d’intervention, renouvellement des armements des groupes d’intervention, etc. La course entre la cuirasse et l’épée est une constante du monde de la Défense. Cette compétition éternelle touche maintenant de plein fouet les professionnels de Download the next issue tomorrow from 6am with THE EUROSATORY APP at www.eurosatory.com or visit www.janes.com/eurosatory la Sécurité. Contraintes et forcées, les forces de l’ordre doivent prendre rapidement des mesures pour retrouver l’ascendant sur un adversaire qui se renforce. Et c’est ainsi que le RAID, unité d’intervention de la Police nationale, équipe ses antennes régionales de véhicules blindés PVP. Et c’est encore le Titus 6x6 de Nexter Systems, repeint en noir et exposé sur le stand du ministère de l’Intérieur, qui porte aujourd’hui l’insigne de ce même RAID. A ses côtés, un 4x4 Sherpa blindé RTD aux couleurs du GIGN de la Gendarmerie nationale et porteur d’une échelle d’assaut. Et, autre exemple encore, la dotation des brigades anti-criminalité en fusils d’assaut pour faire face à des AK47 devenues trop communes dans les villes françaises. Dans ce contexte, l’industrie de la Sécurité est mise au défi, mais elle est équipée et structurée pour faire face. Un rapport du PIPAME (Pôle Interministériel de Prospective et d’Anticipation des Mutations Economiques) rappelle que ce secteur représente 130 000 personnes et 21 milliards d’Euros de chiffre d’affaires dans l’hexagone. Selon ce même rapport, 20 % des sociétés seraient duales, répondant aussi bien aux besoins de la Défense qu’à ceux de la Sécurité. Une dualité qui se renforce dans l’industrie et trouve un écho non seulement sur les stands d’Eurosatory, mais aussi parmi les visiteurs qui en sillonnent les allées. 4 Drone Dome defeats threats from small drones and quadcopters page 12 Firing grenades and lesslethal ammunition from the same weapon page 24 L’Aklus Shield® C-Model, pour la protection des populations civiles page 27 VisiPad®, aider les secours à mieux identifier les patients et autres page 29 Perimeter radar provides day/night and all-weather surveillance page 32 TITUS ® CREATING NEW REFERENCES IN DEFENSE I WWW.NEXTER-GROUP.COM 100% Ready for your Missions BROAD RANGE OF MISSIONS: INFANTRY TRANSPORT, COMBAT SUPPORT AND COMBAT SERVICE SUPPORT FUNCTIONS, PEACEKEEPING OPERATIONS, PUBLIC SECURITY, COUNTER-INSURGENCY AND ANTI-TERRORISM AND PROTECTION OF KEY INFRASTRUCTURE.

The upgrade programme was launched by France in December, and also includes the modernisation of the land-based SAMP/T system that serves with the French air force and Italian army, which uses the Block 1 missile. France and Italy initiated the original Aster programme in coalition operations. Italian SAMP/T missiles are currently deployed to Turkey to protect against potential ballistic missile attacks from Syrian territory. The new upgrade programme significantly modernises the electronics of the Aster 30 Block 1, taking into account the increased threat of ballistic missile attacks, and adapts the ground systems of the SAMP/T. As declared at the AngloFrench summit held in Amiens in March, the UK has signalled an interest in upgrading to the new missile for its Type 45 destroyers, which already use the Aster 15 and 30. An Aster missile is fired by an Italian SAMP/T unit 1988; to date, 1,600 missiles have been ordered by 11 customers. The system plays an active role in the NATO active layered theatre ballistic missile defence network, and has been used in support of NATO and IED imaging speeds the advance Raytheon (Hall 5, Stand D658) has unveiled a new development in IED detection in the shape of GroundEye, a laser/seismo system that not only detects suspected emplaced threats, but can also confirm and diagnose them. This ability allows forces to move at greater speed than with current counter-IED methods, maintaining the momentum of advance. GroundEye is being displayed on the Milrem THeMIS unmanned ground vehicle (Hall 5, Stand J521) from Estonia, but the system can be adapted for use by dismounted troops, mounted on a tripod, as well radio-controlled vehicles (RCVs). It can also be incorporated into larger route-proving vehicles, augmenting ground-penetrating radar (GPR) by providing rapid confirmation and diagnosis. Currently GPR is the primary means of detecting suspected emplacements for route-proving applications, but it has no diagnosis capability. False alarm rates are high, requiring further investigation by dismounted troops with metal detectors that are ineffective against low-metal content devices. Finally, an EOD specialist would have to brush away overmatter to confirm the nature of the suspected emplacement. By using an array of laser diodes, a camera and a vibration source to create a microseismic field, GroundEye accurately images the surface pattern using advanced image processing techniques. Objects underground affect the surface pattern and are revealed on the operator’s display, allowing a trained operator to identify what is beneath the ground in real time. Difficult-to-detect items such as pressure plates made of wood or plastic are clearly revealed. In its dismounted or RCV configuration, Ground Eye has an effective coverage of 2-3m2, looking around 1m ahead. Trials have shown that it can locate objects buried by up to 1.5m. Tests have been conducted in a range of soil types and climatic conditions. The system is still in development, but a dismounted soldier version could be ready in about six months. 8 Arrow strikes ➔ CHRISTOPHER F FOSS Following its first showing at the Zhuhai Air Show less than two years ago, the China North Industries Corporation (Norinco) (Hall 5, Stand H521) is launching its latest Red Arrow 12 multipurpose missile, also referred to as the Hongjian-12 (HJ-12), on the international market here at Eurosatory. The shoulder-launched oneman portable system consists of the missile in its launch tube and the clip-on target acquisition module. It features a nose-mounted imaging infrared seeker for all-weather target engagement, but can be fitted with a TV warhead. The missile has both direct fire and top attack capabilities. It has a soft launch capability that allows it to be launched from inside buildings. The complete system weighs 22kg. Red Arrow 12 has a maximum range of 4,000m and is fitted with a tandem high-explosive anti-tank warhead that is claimed will penetrate up to 1,100mm of rolled homogenous armour protected with explosive reactive armour. In many respects the Red Arrow 12 is very similar to the now widely deployed US Raytheon/Lockheed Martin FGM-148 Javelin missile.

Under current plans this will be the branding adopted early in 2017 by the newly formed Airbus Defence and Space Electronics and Border Security (EBS). The company was created at the start of the year, and in March it was announced that it would be sold to US investment company KKR, which will initially take 74.9 per cent of the shares following approvals from the French and German governments. The European Union has already given the sale the green light. EBS brings together the sensor technology activities of Airbus DS into a single company. With 4,000 employees, mostly in Germany, EBS draws on the heritage and advanced SEA otected an A new sensor house technologies of predecessor companies such as AérospatialeMatra, Dornier, Telefunken and Zeiss. Among the current key projects of EBS are the ASR-NG airport surveillance radar, the TRS-4D naval radar for Germany’s F125 frigates, the MILDS missile warning sensor and antenna development for the Typhoon’s Captor-E radar. “We have decided to combine the sensor technologies of Airbus Defence and Space together with Sharper eyes for Apache Since the Boeing AH-64 Apache’s introduction into service in the mid-1980s, the attack helicopter’s sensor suite has undergone a number of improvements, the most significant of which was the M-TADS/PNVS (modernised target acquisition and designation system/pilot night vision system, also known as Arrowhead) fielded from 2005. Lockheed Martin (Hall 6, Stand K201) is now introducing another major change to the system that not only places the main constituents into a new High Reliability Turret installation, but also replaces the daylight sensor group with a more capable system called M-DSA (modernised day sensor assembly). The previous w DSA was a monochrome unit with two selectable fields of view (4° and 0.9°). M-DSA not only sports fullcolour high-definition capability, but adds a near-infrared (NIR) channel for low light conditions. The system also offers three fields of view: medium (9.32°), narrow (2.5°) and ultra-narrow (0.64°). The medium and narrow fields are identical to those offered by the accompanying M-NSA (modernised night sensor assembly), allowing a blending of imagery between the two systems. Technology from Lockheed Martin’s Sniper XR targeting pod has been incorporated, the ‘XR’ algorithm suite providing longerrange image resolution, and the ability to present a picture- The Apache’s Arrowhead sensor installation includes a day sensor assembly in the port side of the lower sensor group in-picture display of detailed imagery. Other features of the M-DSA are the addition of an inertial measurement unit to improve stability, and therefore effective range, a laser pointer marker, and adoption of an eye-safe laser to allow both operations 10 the associated electronics and to create a new sensor house outside the Airbus Group, since we are convinced that defence electronics will constitute a profitable growth market following its own laws,” explained Thomas Müller, managing director of EBS. “The best way for us to meet these special requirements is to enter the market without being dependent on a platform provider so that we can base our business model entirely on customer demands.” According to Müller, the sale to KKR “will help us to develop into a global Germany-based supplier of premium defence and security electronics that is not dependent on any platform”. When the share sale is finalised, EBS will take the name of Moritz Carl Hensoldt, a 19th century pioneer of optical instruments. and training to be undertaken in environments previously denied to the Apache for laser use. At the same time, the system has been made more maintainable, with the ability to perform some tasks on the flightline. This results in reduced costs and increased availability. M-DSA is being introduced in two phases, the first replacing the laser rangefinder/designator with the eye-safe system. This was contracted in November 2010, and first flew at Redstone Arsenal in February 2014. The second phase – covering NIR, colour and laser pointer – was contracted in December 2015. While the US Army is the initial recipient, the M-DSA is also available for export: the first confirmed customer is Qatar, which signed a contract to buy 24 AH-64Es last week. nd multi-purpose ARMOURED HOMELAND SECURITY VEHICLES LIGHT SECURITY VEHICLES FIRE-FIGHTING & RESCUE VEHICLES Whatever the mission, wherever, whenever Sho LAND w SEA Brazilian Safe inside the Drone Dome expertise Part of the Embraer Group, Atech is Brazil’s leading systems house, with extensive know-how in the development and implementation of critical mission systems. In Brazil, it has been at the forefront of large strategic systems, such as the SIVAM Amazon surveillance system, nuclearelectric generation laboratory and the nation’s air traffic monitoring system. Atech (Hall 6, Stands B170/171) is involved in the naval mission tactic system for the Brazilian navy’s EC 725 helicopters, and in providing the mission and simulator support system for the Gripen NG next-generation fighter. It is also an exporter, and has sold the Skyflow air traffic management system to India. The company is exhibiting its tactical command and control system, whose modular nature allows it to be tailored to meet the needs of military and security forces. The system can be integrated with many types of commincations links, sensors and remote equipment. ➔ DAVID DONALD First shown at the LAAD show in Brazil some weeks ago, Rafael’s Drone Dome is making its European debut at Eurosatory. The system is Rafael’s response to the growing threat from small drones, which not only pose an intrusive threat, but also a potentially lethal one as carriers of weapons. Drone Dome combines a number of sensors to detect and track UAVs, including small Group 1 quadcopters. The system incorporates a Rada RPS-42 radar and a Controp MEOS electro-optical system with thermal imager and longrange daylight TV cameras. Radio signal detectors are also included. The sensors can be combined into a single deployable installation, or tailored for fixed installations. When a drone is detected, typically at about 3km range, the system then analyses the guidance and communication frequencies that are associated with it. RF jammers from Netline then scramble the drone’s GPS guidance or its wireless communications to neutralise it. The system can be controlled by a single person, who is provided with screens to show imagery from the electro-optical sensors and a tactical picture of the environment. Additional sensor stations can be integrated into the overall system to increase its coverage. Activation of the jammers to disable a drone can be initiated manually by the operator, or undertaken Codis SV smart displays for vehicle C4ISR with optimal space, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-c). automatically by the system by applying preset algorithms. Drone Dome is the latest in Rafael’s ‘Dome’ family of protective systems. The original, Iron Dome, provides rapid-response defence against rockets, mortars and aerial threats. Together with its Tamir interceptor vehicles, Iron Dome has been tested for a number of applications, including the C-Dome maritime version.

The hull is of all-welded steel armour with an appliqué passive armour package and has a gross vehicle weight of 15 tonnes. The Tulpar-S features a shock absorbing floating floor, spall liners and special blast- attenuating seats, which all add to crew survivability. In the baseline armoured personnel carrier configuration it has a crew of two – commander and driver – and can carry eight dismounts. The Tulpar-S is powered by a 360hp diesel coupled to an automatic transmission, with four forward and two reverse gears, which gives a maximum speed of 78km/h. The vehicle is fully amphibious. The Tulpar-S being shown here is fitted with the Otokar Basok remote controlled weapon station armed with a stabilised 7.62mm machine gun. Mounted alongside the machine gun is the sensor package that consists of a charge coupled device day camera and a thermal camera.

Israel’s BIRD Aerosystems (Hall 6, Stand C353) is showing its new directional infrared countermeasure (DIRCM) system here. Called SPREOS (selfprotection radar electro-optic system) and jointly developed with a large European firm, this solution is ideal for a wide range of airborne platforms, from small helicopters to large transport aircraft. It combines a radar-based sensor for verification purposes and an active laser to provide enhanced protection against the immediate threat of man-portable air defence systems (MANPADS). SPREOS integrates into a single line replaceable unit with multiple functions, including threat confirmation, tracking and jamming of advanced IR guided missiles. A warning from the onboard missile warning system (MWS) triggers SPREOS to slew to the direction of the incoming threat. The dualband radar function activates for confirmation and highprecision tracking. SPREOS then deploys the dual-band countermeasure laser, causing the missile to miss the aircraft. BIRD Aerosystems is renowned for airborne missile protection systems (AMPSs) and airborne surveillance, information and observation (ASIO) solutions, which are operational in NATO forces, UN air operations and with many other customers worldwide. Stamp of approval Main picture: XRGL40 being test fired in a double mount. Inset: XRGL40 with GR-40 sight ➔ SAM J BASCH Two NATO member nations have selected the Rippel Effect Systems (Hall 6, Stand B588) handheld XRGL40 extended-range grenade launcher in recent months. “The two western European countries independently of each other selected our XRGL40 for its ability to fire low and medium velocity 40mm grenades accurately to 800m, as well as less-lethal ammunition from the same weapon without any reconfiguration,” said Rippel Effect Systems marketing executive Dawid Fourie. The ability to fire lesslethal grenades makes the XRGL40 ideal for special forces, peacekeepers and law enforcement agencies that have a requirement to scale their operations. Eurosatory Daily reported last year that the UK’s Energetics Technologies Ltd (ETL) became the latest ammunition manufacturer to use the Rippel Effect launcher to develop a w SEA 40mm medium velocity grenade. Other ammunition developers opting for the XRGL40 were Diehl BGT Defence, RheinmetallDenel Munition, and Indumil of Colombia, while Singapore’s STK and Atlantis Corporation of South Africa both now certify their extended-range low velocity grenades with the XRGL40. “For a multi-shot grenade launcher to fire less-lethal grenades in semi-automatic mode, we at Rippel had to find a solution to the technical problem of sufficient gas pressure that normally winds the cylinder,” Fourie explained. “The XRGL40 functions with our proprietary variable port pressure device (VPPD) that enables the cylinder to advance to the next round as quickly as the operator pulls the trigger, even when firing very low pressure less-lethal grenades.” Rippel Effect is also showing its electronically programmable multi-velocity GR40 sight that allows the operator to choose between different ballistic profiles of the ammunition types that can be fired with the XRGL40.

At Eurosatory, Rockwell Collins (Hall 5, Stand w D598) has introduced a new perimeter surveillance radar, the PSR-500, which provides 24-hour, all-weather surveillance capabilities, but with reduced power requirements and reduced radiation when compared with other systems. Lower power requirements equate to reduced operating costs, while the low power output reduces radiation to levels that pose no health risks. The radar operates over a relatively short range, but advanced target behaviour analysis leads to impressive detection capability against intrusions. The radar can be used to cue other sensors, such as infrared and daylight camera systems, for identification purposes.

Launched from a canister, the vehicle replicates a ballistic missile and provides a target for operators of surface-to-air missile systems during trials. With a range of 180km, the K-BATS vehicle is 4m long and has a body diameter of 0.6m. It weighs around 1.5 tonnes. It has the ability to mimic several types of trajectory, and is guided throughout its flight by an inertial/GPS system. Telemetry equipment relays crucial data back to a control centre to warn if the target is veering off track, allowing correction updates, while an explosive command destruct function is incorporated in case an errant vehicle threatens lives or infrastructure. K-BATS has been proven while acting as a target for Korean surface-to-air missile programmes. It can also be used to evaluate the performance of in-service systems such as the Patriot PAC-2 GEM/T and forthcoming PAC-3 systems. Fourfold mobility solutions Dutch company Koni (Hall 5, Stand A698) has incorporated pneumatic springs and dampers in self-contained units as an alternative to conventional metal springs and dampers. Known as Hydroride, they have been designed to be fitted to tracked and wheeled vehicles up to 50 tonnes. Hydroride combines effective damping with a rising rate spring, which means the suspension absorbs more energy as the vehicle travels over rough terrain and results in a smoother ride. There are four versions of Hydroride – Mono Tube, Twin Tube, Compact Tube and Air-Spring. ➔ CHRISTOPHER F FOSS UkrOboronProm (Ukrainian Defence Industry, Hall 5, Stand H801) has brought its latest production standard Dozor-B (4x4) armoured personnel carrier (APC) to Paris.

VISIT THE | VISITER LE H5-K606 Canadian Association of Defence and Security Industries 35 Association des industries canadiennes de défense et de sécurité Sho LAND w SEA SECURITY The future of the global defence/security industry ➔ TATE NURKIN, SENIOR DIRECTOR, AD&S THOUGHT LEADERSHIP, IHS JANE’S Global security and defence industries are experiencing enduring and intersecting technological, competitive and market transitions that will affect both immediate and distant opportunities and risks. The intersection of five particularly powerful forces will necessitate new ways of thinking about and planning for uncertain and complex futures. New actors: Defence and security companies face increasingly competitive environments filled with new actors from emerging markets and adjacent industries applying disruptive business models. The entry of a variety of emerging market companies that maintain the flexibility to offer ‘good enough’ solutions, technology transfer and favourable financing terms has been a feature of export markets for several years. In addition, demand for defence and security-focused solutions in cyber/information domain, new materials, wearable/ flexible electronics, unmanned systems, artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and navigation and communication technologies are driving convergence between security and defence and also generating more frequent and intense intersections with hightech companies that specialise in commercial applications of these technologies. The trajectory of this engagement is unlikely to be a steep and straight upward line. Low margins, intellectual property concerns, difficulty of doing business with government procurement agencies, long business development cycles, and ethical concerns will deter some high-tech companies from large defence and security plays. US Secretary of Defence Ash Carter’s May 2016 decision to change leadership of the Defense Innovation Unit Experimental (DIUx) – an organisation established to facilitate US Department of Defense (DoD) engagement with Silicon Valley – and explicitly acknowledge slower than expected progress further highlighted some of the bureaucratic demand-side challenges associated with the early stages of this engagement. However, the leadership change also demonstrated the commitment of the world’s largest and highest tech military to expand engagement with this sector – especially in light of the April 2016 $82 million US Air Force contract award to SpaceX to carry a GPS satellite into space, among other recent DoD/high-tech engagements. Indeed, the May announcement formalised the establishment of a new DIUx hub in Boston and included acknowledgement of the need to accelerate procurement process reform. Dismissing the potential effects of high-tech industry – as competitors, partners and mergers and acquisition targets – on the global defence and, especially, security market will leave traditional industry actors vulnerable to powerful disruptive market shifts. New technologies: Investment in and development, proliferation and clever use of a range of emerging technologies have the potential to rapidly transform end-user capability requirements and shatter assumptions about the types of models that will enable success for corporate activities. New frameworks: The intersection of industry drivers with changing global economic and geopolitical frameworks and broad ‘megatrends’ related to demography, communication, population movement, new sovereignty models, data consumption, banking and commerce and transportation will have far-reaching implications for global defence and security. 36 New economic realities – especially related to global debt, slow growth and emerging market ‘mid-life crises’ – and the possible fracturing of longstanding geopolitical ‘clean lineups’ of allies and partners will change budget expectations and threat perceptions and priorities. They will also produce novel and diverse industry relationships. New rules: Managing supply chains and business resilience amid increasing regulations focused on counterfeiting, cybersecurity, corruption, climate change and conflict materials will bring new risks and constraints on partner identification and even on the markets to which companies can sell. In addition, innovation in defence and security products and services will require, and actually stimulate new laws and regulations to address legal, safety, security, business, infrastructure and ethical concerns. Shaping the “rules of the game” to facilitate easier adoption of specific products at both national and international levels will be a growing feature of future competition for global defence and security companies. New budget and funding realities: The current environment of constrained Sho LAND procurement budgets will be matched by enduring spending crunches in research, development, testing and evaluation budgets across several regions later in this decade. Innovation will occur more frequently through riskburdened company-funded innovation initiatives that may never be selected for contracts. Defence and security companies, then, are likely to seek means of sharing this risk through public private partnerships, cooperation with competitors, acquisition of niche providers of sought after technologies, or even partnership with other non-defence and security industries focused on different applications. Incorporating uncertainty The evolution of these intersecting forces will drive industry and market dynamics along previously unexplored trajectories, generating new competitions that do not conform to existing assumptions about the future of the industry. Uncertainty, complexity and vulnerability to disruption will be prominent and persistent. Scenario planning is a powerful and increasingly relevant means of incorporating uncertainty, challenging assumptions, and expanding thinking about the future. By developing and examining pathways to and parameters of a series of alternative plausible (as opposed to merely likely) environments, decision-makers can better understand how drivers might evolve and/or intersect to create novel landscapes. For example, the IHS Jane’s Defence Industry 20YY scenario planning product has developed three alternative visions for the future of the global defence and security industry (and analysis of these futures), each designed to isolate a particularly powerful driver or intersection of drivers: ‘Industry Insurgency’ (competitive environment and global economic and technology trends); ‘Divergent Disruptions’ (disruptive technological innovation and new competitors); and ‘Failing Frameworks’ w SEA (changed and changing geopolitical and economic contexts and relationships). Analysis of individual scenarios seeks to identify challenges and opportunities of each alternative world; assess strategies, capabilities, relationships and actions required to effectively capitalise on opportunities and mitigate risks in each scenario; and identify signposts that one scenario is more or less likely to come to pass. Matching scenariospecific strategies with signpost identification allows decisionmakers to design hedging strategies and also implement these strategies as challenges are unfolding rather than after they have matured.

The decision by the US to send destroyer USS Lassen through what China claims as its territorial waters in the Spratly Islands in late October 2015 firmly put the issue on the international agenda. China’s response was a series of snap drills that included J-11 combat aircraft landing on Woody Island in the Paracels. Meanwhile, work is advancing on all seven reefs that China has transformed into islands. All now have piers and harbours and at least three will have 3,000m-long airstrips. On the indigenous capability side, China continues to make progress. At a massive parade in Beijing on 3 September 2015, it unveiled a raft of ballistic missiles, including the muchtouted DF-21D anti-ship ballistic missile, while it was also revealed that the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) 3,000-4,000 km-range DF-26 intermediate-range ballistic missile has an anti-ship capability. Both are key elements of the ongoing attempt by China to force the US Navy to operate further away from its coast – and Taiwan – if Beijing ever decided to take the island by force. Japanese defence is dominated by the tortured passage of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s security bills through the Diet. The bills, which change the government’s interpretation of the constitution and allow it to come to the aid of an ally under attack, are seen by Abe and his supporters as just a step towards the ‘normalisation’ of Japan’s defence and foreign policy that is justified by the worsening situation in northeast Asia. For Abe’s critics, the new laws are an unconstitutional attack on the post-war consensus that threatens everything Japan has achieved and stands for internationally. This gap in perception is unlikely to close in 2016. In practice, the new laws are just one element of a new Japanese defence policy architecture that includes new US-Japan Defence Guidelines under which Tokyo is expected to play a greater global security role in support of US operations. South Korea enjoyed another solid year as an emerging defence exporter with further successes for the T-50 Golden Eagle trainer in Thailand. In the past few years, South Korea’s defence industry has secured a range of major contracts in the region on the back of increasingly competitive industrial capabilities and strong government support. As well as the T-50, these include an order from Thailand for a new class of frigate constructed by Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering (DSME); six new DSME missile corvettes for Malaysia; and the sale to Indonesia of the Chiron manportable surface-to-air missile system made by LIG Nex1, DSME Chang Bogo-class Type 209 submarines, and Doosan Black Fox military vehicles. The long-delayed 2016 Australian Defence White Paper represents the most comprehensive and coherent exposition of Australian defence policy since the late 1940s. If there is a key strategic theme to the White Paper, it is a commitment to “a stable Indo-Pacific region and a rules-based global order”. While this is the third of three ‘strategic defence interests’ listed in the White Paper – a list that includes “a secure, resilient Australia, with secure northern approaches and proximate sea lines of communication” and “a secure nearer region, encompassing maritime South East Asia and South Pacific Regional land vehicle forecasts (2016-2024) 38 w SEA Regional snapshot (comprising Papua New Guinea, Timor-Leste and Pacific Island Countries)” – it is in some ways the most significant. The White Paper reflects increasing concern about what it describes as “points of friction in the region in which differences between the US and China could generate rising tensions”. Companies The Chinese vehicle industry is the largest supplier to the region with a forecast of USD38.6 billion, 32.6% of the APAC market share. Revenue is led by infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs), main battle tanks (MBTs) and logistic vehicles at 28%, 22% and 18% respectively, for a total of USD26.2 billion. 97.2% of Chinese revenues (USD37.5 billion) are from the domestic market, while the rest are from small deliveries to Pakistan, Venezuela, Bangladesh, Argentina and Middle Eastern states. Hyundai Rotem represents USD8.52 billion, 7.19% of the APAC market share, with revenue chiefly dominated by MBTs at 62.9% and APCs with 28%, for a combined total of USD7.74 billion. Chief programmes by Hyundai include the K2 MBT, K1/K1A1 MBT upgrade, KW1/KW2 APC and KM-1 LTV. Heavy Industries Taxila’s forecast revenue of USD6.1 billion represents 5.14% of APAC market share, with earnings from Sho LAND w SEA China India South Korea Pakistan APCs at 50.1% and production and upgrade of MBTs at 25.5% for a total of USD4.6 billion. Major productions include Talha APC, Al-Khalid MBT and upgrade of Type 59 MBTs. and continued efforts on the Arjun Mk 2 (USD787 million). Opportunities are numerous and include the future infantry combat vehicle (FICV) with USD2.5 billion forecast, the future main battle tank (FMBT) valued at USD495 million, the mounted gun system (USD955 million), a wheeled APC (8×8) with USD828 million forecast, a tracked SPH (USD640 million) and a light armoured multipurpose vehicle (LAMV) valued at USD172 million. These make up a total of USD6.5 billion in opportunities. The Modi government is trying to fast track procurements and lure foreign OEMs to invest in India’s defence sector by simplifying licensing procedures and making other concessions. South Korea’s 7.6% CAGR and USD16.2 billion forecast are very healthy and provide opportunities for external suppliers. Programmes include the K-2 MBT (USD3.6 billion), K-21 IFV (USD1.5 billion), K1A1 MBT upgrade (USD655 million), KW2 8x8 APC (USD602 million), K9 SPH (USD595 million), Chun-Mu K-MLRS (USD563 million), KW1 6x6 APC (USD488 million), K200 IFV upgrade (USD463 million), KM1 light tactical vehicle (USD451 million), EVO-105 mounted SPH (USD323 million) and KM-SAM (USD263 million). Opportunities include an IFV (USD1.2 billion), a short-range air defence vehicle (USD287 million) and a MBT (USD225 million). The Army is in the midst of acquiring an array of new tracked and wheeled vehicles and defence spending under the new Mid-Term Defence Plan (2016-20) is to increase by an average of 7.2% per annum. Seoul strongly favours defence industry partnerships as a means of gaining access to technological and industrial capabilities. Pakistan’s forecast shows a USD12 billion market value over the forecast period and a 3.8% CAGR. The Talha APC tops the programmes with a USD1.1 billion forecast, followed by the Al Khalid II at USD1 billion. The Maaz APC (USD842 million) rounds out the top programmes. Other programmes include the HQ-7B short-range SAM vehicle (USD222 million), Al Zarar MBT upgrade (USD50 million) and LY-80 mediumrange SAM vehicle (USD17 million). Opportunities exist for a self-propelled mortar (USD1.5 billion), an APC (USD1.1 billion) and a SPH for USD844 million. Pakistan continues to struggle with its economy, expecting to grow just over 3.5% in the next five years. However, defence spending has increased from 2.3% of GDP to 2.54% and local industry is struggling, remaining largely dependent on licensed production by public owned organisations with no significant R&D. Japan has a 1.4% CAGR and USD7.3 billion market forecast. Large programmes underway include the manoeuvre combat vehicle (USD523 million), Type 10 MBT (USD470 million), CBRN detection and reconnaissance (USD352 million), Type 99 SPH (USD283.5 million), AAV7 (USD235 million), Type 12 coastal defence system (USD140.52 million) and a midrange multipurpose anti-tank missile vehicle (USD184 million). USD2.8 billion in opportunities exist, including a light selfpropelled howitzer (LSPH) valued at USD1.46 billion, a close combat vehicle (USD1billion), an APC forecast at USD136 million and a self-propelled SAM system (USD110 million). Procurement for the Japanese Ground Self-Defence Forces (JGSDF) is likely to remain low, primarily because of significant downsizing of heavy armour and artillery assets. Despite this, the JGSDF continues to replace End user countries China leads the region, with a -6.1% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) and a forecast value of USD65.94 billion. Top programmes are the Type 97A (ZBD97) with USD8.37 billion forecast, the Type 99A2 MBT (USD3.8 billion) and VN1 forecast at about USD3.5 billion. Type 97A and ZLC-2000 anti-tank vehicles are valued at USD2.2 and USD1.7 billion respectively. The PLZ07 self propelled gun (USD1.2 billion) and ZBL-09 reconnaissance vehicle (USD571 million) round out this market. Although largely unaddressable, there is USD4.5 billion forecasted in opportunities with the PLA’s procurement and modernisation efforts being directed towards wide-scale restructuring. India is next in the region with USD18.5 billion forecast and a 5.6% CAGR. Major procurement programmes include the Techwin K9 SPH, T-90S Bhisma (USD3.6 billion), an upgrade for the ZSU23-4 Schilka (USD344 million) 39 Sho LAND Japan its vintage inventory with new sophisticated systems to maintain a technical edge over its rivals.

Lastly, the self-propelled artillery segment shows a 12.5% CAGR and USD14.2 billion forecast. MAJOR DEFENCE MARKETS Indonesia Indonesian defence investment has been on a strong upward trajectory for a number of years, with greater sums directed towards equipment expenditure as Jakarta has sought to recapitalise diverse, ageing inventories. Strong economic growth has allowed Indonesia to ease the chronic defence underfunding of past years and enabled the Indonesian Armed Forces (TNI) to become better prepared to respond to the country’s strategic concerns. These include internal threats such as natural disasters and insurgency and external drivers related to offshore territorial disputes and growing concern about China’s expansionism in the South China Sea. In responding to strategic threats, Indonesia is committed to modernising the TNI through a concept termed as “Minimum Essential Force” (MEF): a strategy introduced in 2005 that aims to establish the nature of military capabilities that Indonesia should, at a minimum, be able to deploy in response to threats. Early stages of the MEF plan are focused on internal threats but subsequent phases are geared towards Indonesia achieving military balance with any perceived threat within Asia. It is also possible that the MEF could be accelerated under President Joko Widodo, given escalating tension in the South China Sea, where Indonesia is claimant to expansive territory and assets. Under the MEF, major acquisitions that are planned include multirole combat aircraft, large tactical transport aircraft, additional submarines and surface combatants. Defence procurement spending is forecast by IHS Jane’s Defence Budgets to climb around 50% between 2016 and 2020, rising from USD1.66 billion to USD2.36 billion. In the past the capital expenditure has been supplemented by foreign bank loans. Military industrialisation is also a key component of the MEF and is increasingly becoming a factor in determining defence contracts. To this end, Indonesia has invested heavily in its statedominated defence industry base and introduced legislation in 2012 – the Defence Industry Law – to mandate local industrial participation in military procurement programmes. Defence spending President Widodo has reiterated a pledge to more than double the country’s defence budget to support the modernisation of the TNI. Should Indonesia achieve economic expansion of 6% a year, the president supports defence budget growth so that 1.5% of GDP in spent on defence by 2020. According to Widodo, this would provide a military expenditure of approximately IDR250 billion (USD18.6 billion), which is more than double the defence budget for 2016, which reached IDR99.5 trillion: a 2% increase over 2015. According to IHS Jane’s analysis, the target remains overambitious, but strong increases in defence spending are forecast. Based on continuing GDP growth and gradual increases in the proportion of GDP that Indonesia allocates to defence, the country should reach 0.9% of GDP by 2020 (IDR132 trillion). Land sector indigenous industry Indonesia’s land systems sector, which is dominated by stateowned PT Pindad, is relatively self-sufficient, having developed and produced over the past decade or so the 4×4 Komodo and 6×6 Anoa APCs (as well as a range of variants), firearms, ammunition, explosives, mortars and howitzers. PT Pindad has also produced other firearms under licence from Belgium’s FN Herstal and Singapore Technologies Engineering and 40 w SEA has developed a new version of the Anoa, called Badak, which is fitted with a 90mm canon developed by CMI Defence. Indonesia’s indigenous defence industrial capabilities have been developed out of necessity. The development of the Anoa, for example, was accelerated in the early years of this century when the TNI were involved in conflict with the Free Aceh Movement. The Badak vehicle has also been developed out of a TNI requirement. In January 2016, PT Pindad received an order to supply the Indonesian Army with an initial 50 Badak units. The value of the contract is understood to be worth around IDR500 billion (USD36 million) and features the Indonesian company’s production of the CMI turret system. Indonesia has recognised a specific strength with particularly its development of military vehicles and is looking to enhance this capability further through a partnership with Turkish company FNSS Savunma Sistemleri, announced in 2014 to co-develop a medium tank. PT Pindad has also signed agreements with Saab to extend the operational life of the TNI’s RBS 70 man-portable airdefence missile systems and with Rheinmetall Denel Munition to jointly develop and produce ammunition and provide support for the TNI’s Leopard tanks. South Korea The defence market of South Korea is shaped primarily by a requirement to modernise the country’s armed forces in the face of continuing high tension with North Korea. This strategic threat was Sho LAND demonstrated most clearly in November 2010 by the North Korean artillery attacks on South Korea’s Yeonpyeong island and the sinking of navy corvette Chon An in March of the same year. Seoul’s main strategy in dealing with this threat is the acquisition and indigenous development of advanced military technologies and platforms channelled through its long-term defence reform plan. This is intended to provide South Korea with a qualitative edge, offsetting North Korea’s perceived quantitative advantage in terms of military personnel and conventional military equipment. South Korea’s procurement strategy is also underpinned by a long-standing commitment to secure modern technologies and expertise through defence offset and industrial collaboration. This has enabled the local defence industrial base to develop strongly over the past 10 years and, looking forward, is likely to facilitate the continued expansion of capability over the coming decade. The growing competitiveness of this defence industrial base is evidenced by its expanded presence in military export markets and is strengthened by South Korea’s highly educated workforce, which is well suited to high-technology industries such as defence and aerospace. While growing indigenous defence industrial capability has enabled Seoul to spend much of its capital expenditure in country, its traditionally close relationship with Washington means that the majority of imported materiel is sourced from the US, with most of the remainder contested by European nations, particularly Germany and France. Defence spending South Korea’s drive to continue to expand its military and industrial capabilities will be supported by a defence budget that is forecast by IHS Jane’s Defence Budgets to grow in line with the country’s economy at a rate of about USD1 billion a year during 2016-20, from around USD33.5 billion to USD38.7 billion (in constant 2016 values). Defence procurement spending is forecast to grow at a similar rate, from USD7.8 billion in 2016 to USD9.5 billion in 2020. Total procurement investment in this period is forecast at USD44.1 billion. The Ministry of National Defense (MND) initially requested a KRW40.1 trillion budget for 2016, but expenditure was trimmed back by lawmakers concerned about the country’s economy. The approved budget, which represents a 3.6% increase over spending in 2015, comprises KRW27.16 trillion for operating and personnel expenses and KRW11.64 trillion for defence modernisation. MND officials have said the budget will impact on programmes to procure satellites and unmanned aerial vehicles, which were intended to improve surveillance and monitoring of North Korean activities. Land sector indigenous industry The army is the country’s largest force and has the broadest array of requirements, most of which are met through indigenous products, suggesting that South Korea’s land systems capabilities are relatively advanced. Over the years some of these requirements have been met through systems designed, developed and produced in foreign countries, such as Kirov 41 w SEA Works T-80 MBTs, BAE Systems M113 and M577 APCs and Lockheed Martin MLRS. However, increasingly South Korean industry is meeting these requirements, and the army is now estimated to source more than 70% of its procured materiel from local firms. Companies including Hyundai Rotem, Doosan DST, Samsung Techwin and KIA Motors have supplied the army with K1/K1A1 MBTs, K21 infantry fighting vehicles, a range of military trucks and K9 Thunder selfpropelled howitzers. Air defence weapons have been developed by companies including LIG Nex1, Hanwha and Doosan DST. RoKA weaponry requirements are also met by European and US designs, notably by MBDA and Raytheon.
