AM General at AUSA 2022 on 10-12 October displayed a mock-up of its Humvee Saber Blade, based on a modified HMMWV 4x4 platform fitted with a four-door protected crew compartment.

According to AM General, Saber Blade has an enhanced level of protection including blast protection for the front and rear wheels.

Additional safety features include an advanced occupancy protection restraint system, advanced modular blast seats and ArmorVision transparent armour from ArmorWorks.

Saber Blade is powered by a V8 6.5-litre diesel engine developing 205hp, coupled to an electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission and a two-speed transfer case.

AUSA 2022: Valkyrie system ready to detect UAS threats

AUSA 2022: Valkyrie system ready to detect UAS threats | LAD & C-UAS | Scoop.it
Valkyrie C-UAS software from Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) is ready for customers, Shephard learned during the AUSA 2022 exhibition in Washington DC on 10-12 October.

The system can detect, track, identify and mitigate UAV threats (including small drones) and provides ‘over 90 percent’ total mission effectiveness, according to the company.

Valkyrie has been tested at the US Army’s Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona. In a 16 September memorandum, the Joint Counter-small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Office (JCO) recommended the system, stating that SAIC has developed a ‘robust SoS [system of systems] architecture, with layered sensors and effectors’.

AUSA 2022: Leonardo DRS coalition unveils single Stryker C-UAS

Leonardo DRS, along with seven industry partners, spent the past year designing, integrating, and testing a counter-unmanned aerial system (C-UAS) based on a single Stryker Double-V Hull Infantry Carrier Vehicle (ICVVA1) that it will showcase at the Association of the US Army (AUSA) 2022 conference in Washington, DC, from 10 to 12 October.

Ed House, Leonardo DRS's senior director for land systems, provided Janes with an initiative overview on 4 October ahead of the annual meeting in Washington, DC. This new single-vehicle capability was born, in part, from the company's work with the army on the Mobile, Low, Slow, Unmanned Aircraft Integrated Defeat System (M-LIDS) programme − a two-vehicle C-UAS system based on the mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) all-terrain vehicle (M-ATV).

During the AUSA 2021 conference, Leonardo DRS approached the service about working on a fully integrated C-UAS capability based on a single vehicle, House said.

IAI continues Asian push with counter-UAS deal

IAI continues Asian push with counter-UAS deal | LAD & C-UAS | Scoop.it
The latest sale by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) into the lucrative Asia-Pacific defence market involves ‘several dozen’ of its DroneGuard ComJam system, the manufacturer revealed on 5 September.

IAI did not disclose the identity of the customer buying the communications jamming technology, or when it expects to provide the DroneGuard ComJams.

The company indicated that the end-user will employ DroneGuard ComJam to protect military bases, critical infrastructure and ‘manoeuvring forces’.

IAI noted: ‘UAS may be used for hostile purposes such as gathering intelligence, smuggling or even carrying armaments. Furthermore, their detection is often difficult because of their small physical size, slow air speed, and low-altitude flight.’

IAI has identified the Asia-Pacific region as an important growth market. The company showcased its Barak MX air defence missile family at the Singapore Airshow in February 2022, and the following month it announced a manufacturing contract from an unnamed Asia-Pacific customer for long-range maritime patrol aircraft.

L'ARLAD 40mm de lutte antidrones est prêt

L'ARLAD 40mm de lutte antidrones est prêt | LAD & C-UAS | Scoop.it
Il ne manque plus que les grenades de 40 mm pour rendre cette capacité de lutte antidrones effective, issue d’une adaptation réactive menée par la section technique technique de l’Armée de Terre, évaluée pour la première fois en mars 2020.
Lutte antidrones désormais classée "urgences opérations"

Signe que le sujet est pris à bras le corps, l’adaptation réactive à la lutte antidrones est désormais classée « urgences opérations » (UO), pour prendre la suite d’une première série de six premiers véhicules blindés VAB ARLAD modifiés sur la base de l’architecture définie par la STAT. L’UO concerne désormais 12 véhicules (dont la modernisation des 6 VAB ARLAD historiques) dotés d’un lance-grenades Heckler & Koch de 40 mm, avec des adaptations pour rendre le concept de base plus efficace encore. Le premier standard, dont deux véhicules ont été déployés au Mali, ne comportait qu’une mitrailleuse de 12,7 mm qui n’a pas été jugée suffisante pour garantir la destruction des drones.
12 kits livrés par Arquus pour la fin 2022

12 kits auront été livrés pour la fin 2022 par Arquus à l'Armée de Terre. Aucune date n’est par contre disponible pour l’arrivée des grenades airburst de 40 mm, et du programmateur des fusées, essentiel pour indiquer aux munitions à quelle distance exploser. Des grenades Nammo et Diehl ont été évaluées, mais c’est finalement le modèle 40x53 ABM de Rheinmetall qui a été retenu. Campagne de tir après campagne de tir (il y en a une en cette troisième semaine d’octobre à Mourmelon, aussi pour former les équipages du 68e RAA), les limites de la portée sont repoussées (600 mètres actuellement).
Capacité à intercepter un drone volant à 60 km/h

Les premiers essais en début d’année avaient démontré la capacité à intercepter un drone volant à 60 km/h à 466 mètres de distance. Un quadricoptère volant à 20 km/h avait été neutralisé à 547 m. Le radar de FLIR Systems, issu du moyen interarmées de lutte antidrone (MILAD) est donné pour détecter un minidrone jusqu’à 2500 m, un microdrone juqu’à 1500 mètres. En trente secondes, il peut être à pied d’œuvre à la bonne hauteur, au sommet d’un mat télescopique.
Déploiement au Mali

Les différents standards de l’ARLAD ont mis à profit les capacités de conception de l’atelier de soutien aux expérimentations de la STAT, à Satory, avec la conception d’interfaces et de petites pièces, la gestion électrique, des coffres. L’un d’eux a même bien résisté aux mauvais traitements au Mali. Aucun tir n’avait eu lieu lors de ce déploiement, les deux véhicules étaient systématiquement mis en œuvre lors des convois potentiellement exposés à la menace. Par contre, le radar étant aussi apte aux détections sol-sol, il a été utilisé pour détecter des présences suspectes aux abords des bivouacs. Un ARLAD a aussi continué à être utilisé depuis son porte-char, après avoir cassé ses ponts.

Polish company Mechanical Works Tarnów (ZMT) used MSPO 2022 in Kielce on 6-9 September to display a new C-UAS and anti-cruise missile system with automatic target tracking and acquisition.

The vehicle-mounted system includes a set of sensors integrated with a RADA radar system and EO seeker head.

Integrated sensors allow highly dynamic and precise tracking to defeat air targets, according to ZMT, while a 12.7mm WKLM multi-barrel machine gun is used to ensure high fire coverage of the target to neutralise the threat.

The system uses an exMHR software-defined, multi-mission 4D AESA pulse Doppler radar that can detect small UAVs
