A partner committed to excellence

he Spanish Defence and Security industry is a strategic sector that has known how to see its way around the contraction of the domestic market by boosting exports and taking companies global. SPAIN Defence & Security Industry 2015, now in its third edition, has become a valuable instrument for sector businesses as they strive to grow and carve a name for themselves abroad, showing how Spain is today a ‘Partner Committed to Excellence’.

The development of our Defence and Security industry, driven by the large-scale Special Armament Programmes of the 1980s and 90s, has successfully applied the lessons learnt to become, for some years now, a developer of advanced technologies, exporting excellent systems and associated services in all spheres of the sector.

SPAIN Defence & Security Industry 2015, with the support of the Ministry Defence, Marca España and sector associations, takes an in-depth look at latest-generation developments in the country, the weight of RDI in Spanish business, Defence and Security’s demanding quality levels and its orientation towards international markets.

This unique document is an exhaustive showcase of Spain’s industrial capacities, featuring a complete directory of both major corporations and SMEs that compete at the highest level in tender processes in the European Union, Latin America, the Middle East, Asia, Africa and even on the mighty North American market.

SPAIN Defence & Security Industry 2015, published by IDS, is printed in English and Spanish and distributed

to commercial and defence attaché offices across the world. The digital version is available at the Infodefensa.com and Infoespacial.com portals to further complete the information described in different formats (pageflips and pdfs) so it can be better managed and promoted. The websites dedicated to this publication are home to the most up-to-date news and opinion pieces on the Defence and Security sector.

The digital version of the Business Directory will be rolled out over the year with news releases and documents on the featured companies to provide the latest information on the challenges facing businesses over the next year. It is an eminently useful tool for the industry and for decision-makers in different Defence and Security administrations around the world.

It is also the document that heads up annual publications specifically addressing the major Acquisitions, Tenders, Defence and Security Budget Programmes in Spain, the digital versions of which will be available over the SPAIN Defence & Security Industry 2015 website, among other means.

IDS presents this comprehensive communication tool to respond to the strict demands of the national Defence and Security industrial network, a net export sector of advanced technologies which has had, in the Spanish Armed Forces’ international missions, one of the most important showcases of its ability to provide top-quality systems and on-the-ground responses, and those related to overhaul and other services. In both cases, it is the outcome of a major effort in RDI investment, an indisputable part of the industry’s DNA in Spain.

A strategic pillar

he world today is constantly proving to us that Defence is a fundamental pillar of any stable, prosperous society that seeks to develop in peace and freedom. At the same time as modern society is continuously and unrelentingly making progress in areas such as the Internet, new technologies and the way we communicate, so too have the enemies of our freedom been evolving, using the same advances we have made to attack us and further radicalise their ideology and its implementation.

These days wars are fought in geographic areas and virtual terrains alike. And to fight in both we need to evolve, to increase our capacities and to go into the future one step ahead of those who want to snatch it away from us.

Faced with this panorama, in which the globalisation of good is unfailingly followed by a multifaceted threat that is hard to confront, Defence and the technological and industrial development associated with it are of vital importance. Continuous research and the development of new technologies that enable us to stand up to threats and the challenge of more flexible and cleverer Armed Forces which can adapt to a reality that is changing at breakneck speed are both an exciting challenge and a central priority.

That is the case for those of us with a political responsibility in the field of Security and those who work in the industry. It is a challenge that calls on us to reinvent ourselves, to continually aspire to more and to join forces in a common effort to make Defence a benchmark industry and driving force, an insurance policy for our welfare state.

The Spanish Defence industry is a strategic sector whose capacity for development and continuous innovation is increasingly impacting basic concepts of Security and the abilities and planning of the Armed Forces. A strong industry is a plus for Defence and makes it a reference point for research and development.

An industry that creates synergies to deliver on common goals makes Spain a more modern and advanced country. In the same way, progress in military technology is transferred to civil technology in a way that often goes unnoticed but has a significant influence on people’s daily lives.

Supporting the Spanish Defence industry not only backs a strategic sector, it also supports a highly qualified type of employment in RDI. Initiatives like the one before us here are a further incentive for the sector and for those of us who have a political responsibility to it.

Towards a centralised management model

> i n s t i t u t i o n a l b a c k i n g

he Secretariat of State for Defence, and more particularly the Directorate General of Armaments and Material (DGAM), is immersed in a process of implementing a new management model as a result of the centralisation of the procurement and modernisation programmes and those designed to deliver on common sustainability, now and in the future.

For the first time since the Ministry of Defence (MoD) was created, a unique and specialised organisation dedicated to the acquisition of armaments and material is being consolidated, which involves a seachange in the model of obtaining the systems our Armed Forces need.

The Directorate has opted for a new procurements model which more clearly separates what has been called the ‘three domains’ or spheres of power:

• The domain of the need of the client or end user of weapons systems established by the Armed Forces.

• The domain of the solution and acquisition of said systems and which competes with the Directorate General of Armaments and Material throughout the procurement process.

• The domain of development and production, which is in the hands of industry.

The transformation has consisted of moving from a model of ‘centralised management and decentralised execution’ in the procurement process to one that is fully centralised, where all aspects of programme management are planned, led, executed, coordinated and controlled by the DGAM and where the Armed Forces continue to be responsible for defining the operating requirements as users.

The 2005 Organic Law on National Defence established the mandate of organising the acquisition of resources in a

centralised fashion, with MoD senior bodies and managers responsible for obtaining and managing the necessary material resources.

Later, in July 2012, the president of the government set out, in the National Defence Directive (DDN), the guidelines for rethinking the design of the structure of the Armed Forces to boost efficacy in every aspect relating to the management, acquisition and use of resources. In October of the same year, the Ministry of Defence indicated, in the Defence Policy Directive (DPD), the need to review the system for contracting and acquiring armaments and material as one of the targets to be delivered on in order to simplify the organisation of the Armed Forces and rationalise the Department’s structures.

Recently, in March 2014, the Secretary of State for Defence agreed, in SEDEF Resolution 320/03967/2014, to centralise certain armaments and material programmes and its Programme Offices at the Secretariat of State, specifying that management and contracting be transferred to the DGAM.

But it was not only the legal aspects which made it recommendable to delimit specific responsibilities in the matter of armaments and material programmes, but also important reasons of an organisational, efficiency and efficacy nature.

Centralised management is a model whose efficacy and efficiency are supported by the fact they have been successfully adopted in other ally countries around us. In our specific case, at no time did we try to replicate other existing models, but rather sought one we considered most suitable to our needs, possibilities and specific capacity requirements and which was in line with the volume of programmes we have to manage.

The new unique and specialised organisation will make it possible to implement a common management doctrine based on standardised procedures and methodologies that will lead

to better coordination and comprehensive and consistent programme management, seeking a more efficient way to reach targets and enhance efficiency and efficacy in their tracking and control, without the domain of ‘the need’ interfering with the domain of ‘the solution’ and maintaining the user as part of the process, taking advantage of all of the user’s capabilities.

With the concentration of responsibilities, we aim to carry out a more effective exercise of powers, as it is an organisational model based on ‘model processes’ rather than ‘types of resources’, with greater agility and uniformity in decision-making and increased reinforcement of the figure of the ‘sole client’ of the Ministry of Defence as an entity.

The DDN classifies the Spanish defence industry as an “ideal supplier of the needs of our Armed Forces”. In this respect, acquisition programmes are the most important instrument the defence industry’s industrial policy has, as they shape market demand and boost economic activity and the development of industrial and technological capabilities that can satisfy internal market and export market needs.

One important aspect is the challenges facing businesses in the defence sector. There is no shortage of them and their influence on national growth is just as significant. There are approximately 580 companies listed in the DGAM’s Business’s Register, of which around 79% are SMEs; companies that produce more than 22,000 direct jobs and which can invoice some 5 billion euros. They have a significant technological content which, generally speaking, is used by highly qualified personnel.

The gradual implementation of a centralised management model for procuring armament and material resources will ensure that the Ministry becomes the single interlocutor with defence companies, facilitating two-way communication whereby they receive a single, clear message from the public authorities and in which the challenges the businesses face, their specific problems and their need for institutional support are just some of the aspects that are better understood by the people responsible for procurement at the MoD.

On this point, it is also necessary to mention the work related to the need to comply with additional provision 9 of the Public Sector Contracts Act in the fields of defence and security (transposition of the Community Directive) which has led us to define the Strategic Industrial Capabilities in the Defence Sector, and to know which industrial entities have the abovementioned capabilities: these studies will soon be completed and then approved by the Council of Ministers and subsequently published.

The international sphere is where the centralisation of programme management will become an effective and flexible

instrument for executing Government to Government (GtG) Agreements, whether in supporting the export of national systems or in the sale of excess material.

In short, a new model which will make it possible to standardise processes, shorten the decision-making chain and better define responsibilities, enabling us to have a more global vision of programme management and control. It will also facilitate the unity of doctrine and criteria, which will make it possible to better advance towards a common vocabulary and single procedures.

With regard to human resources, it will make it possible to implement new common strategies and methodologies and secure better management of the organisation’s specialisation and knowledge, enabling the definition of a new organisational

culture focused on programme management. It will also be necessary to look more profoundly at training personnel as the only way to deliver on the abovementioned specialisation in top-level logistics sectors, the financial management of complex programmes and the engineering of specific systems associated with them.

Centralising programmes and defining strategic defence industrial capabilities, as well as institutional support and the fostering of R&D, will enable us to have the elements we need to be able to enact a Spanish Defence Industry Strategy that guides sector businesses, when the MoD so sanctions, and, more importantly, to ensure that the Armed Forces have the weapons systems they need and have asked for, establishing the corresponding requirements.

>With the concentration of responsibilities, we aim to

carry out a more effective exercise of powers, as it is an organisational model based on ‘model processes’ rather than

‘types of resources’

II Spanish DefenceIndustry Day

in the United States

The Defence Attaché’s Office to the Embassy of Spain in Washington, in collaboration with the General Directorate for Armament and Materiel of the Ministry of Defence, has organized a new gathering of Spanish companies with the goal of presenting their solutions, products and services to the Pentagon.

“The number of companies that have shown interest in this second edition has grown significantly, since they think it very interesting to participate given the chosen format. This kind of meetings is very important for the companies to make themselves known before the U. S. authorities of the Office of Acquisition, Technology and Logistics”, said in the Attaché’s Office.

“For the Defence Cooperation Attaché’s Office in Washington, DC, it is also very useful to rely on a publication like SPAIN Defence & Security Industry since it shows the capabilities of the Spanish industry and its potential in other markets, and it is specially appreciated by the Comparative Technology Office and by the National Defense Industrial Association. Defense Attachés from other countries accredited in the U. S. capital city have also shown their interest”.

The Defence Cooperation Attaché’s Office, part of the Defence Attache´s Office to the Embassy of Spain in the U. S. capital city, has received fifteen requests from companies representing several areas of defence in order to take advantage of this most useful opportunity. Among the interested companies are CESA, CT Ingenieros, DAS Photonics, Everis, EXPAL, Indra, EINSA, INSTALAZA, NADS, Navantia, Piedrafita, Proytecsa Security, SAES, SENER and Tecnobit.

In order to facilitate and coordinate the relations between the Spanish companies and the Pentagon, the Defence Cooperation Attaché’s Office has organized for the second consecutive year a joint session during which said companies will be able to make a general presentation to personnel of the ComparativeTechnology Office, followed by personalized meetings with members of the Office of the Secretary of Defence (Acquisition, Technology and Logistics), USAF, Army, Marine Corps, Navy and U. S. Special Operations Command.

«The Defence and Security industries project an innovative, modern image of the Spain Brand»

he development of state-of-the-art technologies linked to the Defence and Security sector has now become the “spearhead for the Spain Brand” -indicates Carlos Espinosa de los Monteros, Government High Commissioner of this institution- “to disseminate a more modern and innovative image of our country”.

Hence, the Spain Brand highlights the “extraordinary work of Spanish Defence and Security companies”, the results of which are ensuring the “signing of extremely important contracts with countries around the world”, thus strengthening the image of Spain “as an exporter of innovation”. Nowadays, “entering foreign markets is no longer an option but more an obligation”, explains Espinosa de los Monteros.

What role does the Defence and Security industry play in the Spain Brand?The international success of this industry involves associating our country with modern technologies and with research and development, key points in strengthening the Spain Brand. Worldwide, we are famous for our language, culture, heritage and tourism, but unfortunately and unfairly, we are not often associated to the state-of-the-art development of new technologies. Defence and Security has become a spearhead for the Spain Brand to disseminate a modern, innovative image of our country.

What has the participation of our Armed Forces in international missions meant for the Spain Brand?The presence of our Armed Forces in international conflicts has turned Spain into the fifth power to contribute towards safeguarding world security. The image of Spain has gained significance thanks to its military contributions on peace and international aid missions, with around 2,000 troops spread over twelve operations. This support, among other issues, has helped us ensure a post for Spain as a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council and has strengthened our image as an active, caring country that is committed to peace and security.

What Defence technologies can our country head as a bastion for the Spain Brand?The extraordinary work of Spanish companies in the development of Defence and Security technologies and the signing of very important contracts with countries around the world strengthen the image of Spain as an exporter of innovation. Integrated land, sea and air surveillance systems, cyber-security technologies, satellite and radar communication systems, naval and air engineering or modern simulators are just some of the Spanish technologies used on a daily basis in hundreds of countries and that head the Spain Brand.

How does the Spain Brand support the internationalisation of companies, including those from the Defence and Security sector? The Spain Brand acts as an umbrella for all business initiatives and promotions implemented by the Authorities. Companies have ICEX and other special organisations to accompany them during their internationalisation processes. The Spain Brand works on improving the image of our country abroad and, in short, enabling companies to access foreign markets. IT is the prestige of a country that attracts interest and disseminates security in the different sectors.

The growth of exports is a sign of change in the current economic situation. Is the Defence industry an example of the commercial trend to head abroad? The transformation of recent decades has made the Defence and Security industry aware of the need for internationalisation to ensure the feasibility of its business. Accessing foreign markets is no longer an option but an obligation. The sector has been able to start a positioning strategy abroad thanks to the high technological qualifications and its orientation towards the needs of each project, which is reaping its fruits and acting as an example for other sectors that must eventually support internationalisation.

Defence matters at stake

efence matters. This intriguing and at the same time provocative slogan, with a clear double meaning, clearly and concisely summarises the strategy that has been progressively rolled out over the past year in international defence-related forums, both in the framework of NATO and the EU.

Defence matters and their promotion will undoubtedly be high on the agendas not only at the above mentioned international forums but also in national defence policies in 2015 and that is the context on which I am basing this contribution to the document SPAIN Defence & Security Industry 2015, now in its third edition, which has consolidated a name for itself as one of the reference catalogues of the basic technological and industrial capabilities of the Spanish defence industry.

The framework of international security has changed drastically in recent times. Most of the operations and missions carried out by our Armed Forces and those of our allies and/or partner countries within the framework of the international organisations to which Spain belongs, whether NATO or the EU, take place far from home. The majority of these countries no longer have compulsory military service, which, analysed without going into great depth, obviously impacts the way the public understands the defence industry, i.e., what has been called ‘awareness of defence’. The financial downturn, which began to affect Western economies - and European ones in particular - as of 2008, also played a role in the significant and drastic reductions in public spending, particularly with regards defence ministry budgets and therefore the business strategies of industries related to the sector.

All of this has without question made both NATO and the EU keen to act on the issue, within the sphere of their respective powers and responsibilities. In other words, to prioritise defence matters on the agendas of their strategic meetings, which are the Heads of State or Government meetings in the case of the EU (specifically the meeting of December 2013) and the NATO summits (in particular the Wales summit of September 2014). Above all, it has led both organisations to redouble their efforts to make not only national defence ministries but also, and very importantly, the public aware of the importance of keeping numerous defence-related matters on the table, including the always-controversial aspect of budgets, as fundamental elements that

dguarantee freedom and prosperity. From there comes the reference, not in the form of a question but as a statement, that defence is important, i.e., defence matters.

As the NATO Secretary General said in his speech to the Parliamentary Assembly in Zagreb in October 2013: “It is clear that defence still matters, but what we all need to do is improve our efforts to explain why”. For its part, within the framework of the EU, the European Defence Agency chose European Defence Matters as the title for its annual conference in Brussels in March 2014, launching a message along the same lines as that of the NATO Secretary General a few months earlier.

In this context, with the logical differences stemming from their particular situations, one as an intergovernmental military alliance and the other as an economic and political association of countries, both organisations have set their 2015 roadmaps to address three basic areas of action. The first, focused on shoring up the political/strategic aspects of agreement, on the one hand, with the principles of the North Atlantic Treaty on which the alliance is based and, on the other, with those derived from the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP), as detailed in the EU’s Lisbon Treaty. The purpose is clear: to raise awareness about defence among the public by rolling out common intergovernmental policies.

The second action is aimed at identifying, developing and obtaining the military capabilities needed to address the current and future threats the member countries and stakeholders of the organisations face, including the new framework of international relations arising from the Ukraine crisis.

Finally, and just as importantly, actions in the area of the defence industry as a key strategic sector in related matters. The development of a technologically competent industry, competitive at the global level and able to provide the systems that cover the military capability requirements our Armed Forces must have today and in the future is undoubtedly a key question.

Figures from the European Defence Agency (EDA) show that total spending by EDA member states, i.e., all of the EU states except

Denmark, came to €189.6 billion in 2012, approximately 1.5% of the 27 countries’ aggregate Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and 3% of total government spending, both figures being the lowest since 2006. In other words, there has been a 12% cut in defence spending in real terms since 2006, along with an equally important fall in R&D investment.

In this European scenario, global competition from emerging countries is a major challenge to the Old Continent, with 2015 R&D investment by the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China) estimated to more than double the aggregate figures of France, the UK and Germany, the EU’s three leaders in this type of investment.

In this context, defence industries - including the Spanish one - have spent the past few years facing the challenge of remaining profitable in an internal market in clear decline, forcing them to respond with a wide spectrum of strategies, including diversifying the business to get onto civil markets in search of greater efficiencies and boosting expansion on global markets to seek new opportunities.

Opportunities which, in many cases, are associated with tech transfers as demanded by the purchaser countries in order to create strong indigenous business structures, with the obvious risk of increasing the number of competitors.

Faced with this discouraging prospect, the European Council, at its December 2013 meeting, approved the implementation of an ambitious agenda to foster a more competitive and efficient security and defence sector that would contribute to the goals of Europe 2020, i.e., 20% of GDP to come from the industrial sector in general and 3% of GDP to go into R&D.

This agenda is in line with the COM/2014/0387/final report from the European Commission which, under the title, “A New Deal for European Defence”, details the roadmap which the Commission, in close collaboration with Member States, the European External Action Service (EEAS) and the EDA and through regular consultation with the European Parliament and industry, has been developing since the start of the political year last September and for those which it plans to present a situation report on at the EU Heads of State or Government meeting to be held in June 2015.

This consultation mechanism, which the Communication on the roadmap refers to, is of vital importance as it must permit and facilitate the defence ministries of the member states, as the parties responsible for the industrial defence policy, to be a key part of the armament and material policy, as they can be direct and agile interlocutors with the Commission during the implementation of the roadmap.

Considering the set of actions and tools which the Commission has implemented with this list of actions, including financial ones and

those that make the most of the opportunities that present with the development of dual technologies and the logical reservations deriving from the specificities of defence matters, principally associated with legitimate national security interests, the Spanish Ministry of Defence considers all of the Commission’s activities in this field to be highly positive. These actions unquestionably involve proposals of huge importance for the future of the industry and the European defence market and therefore for meeting the military capability goals of Europe’s armed forces.

Spain, with an industrial defence sector developed over the past 30 years and which not only has SMEs that are highly competitive in niches of excellence related with defence, but which also participates in important transnational companies, is aware, through its Ministry of Defence and, in particular, the Secretariat of State for Defence, as the party responsible for the sector’s industrial policy, that the work plan which the European Commission has implemented with respect to the defence market and industry requires actions by the Member States at the national level.

The Spanish defence industry posted earnings of more €5.6 billion in 2013, 2.5% more than the previous year’s total. 70% came from exports and there was a 10% reinvestment in R&D, providing

more than 50,000 jobs and generating €2.5 for every euro invested, in addition to having an enormous multiplier effect on economic activity and technological innovation. This all makes it extremely well placed to continue to contribute to shoring up the European Defence Technological and Industrial Base (EDTIB).

Within the possibilities that the process of economic recovery allows, the Secretariat of State for Defence has already

implemented a new investment cycle in defence which will most certainly not only make it possible to address new requirements with respect to the military capabilities that the Armed Forces need to contribute both to national security and collective security within the framework of our international alliances and associations, but also give a new boost to the maintenance and greater development of the industrial and technological base of Spanish defence.

The definition of industrial capabilities considered strategic to defence, an action which is being carried out parallel to this, will contribute to allowing Spanish industry to help the European consolidation project with the specific weight in accordance with the role that corresponds to Spain.

Finally, institutional backing for the internationalisation of the Spanish defence industry will continue to be a priority factor for the Spanish Defence Ministry. Because, in short, in the interests of freedom, prosperity and citizen safety: Defence matters.

he Ministry of Defence, through the Defence Policy, determines the national defence objectives and the resources and actions needed to obtain them. These objectives are defined in the National Defence Directive, which forms the basis of the National Defence and Military Defence Plan. When we talk about resources and the actions needed to obtain them, we are talking about appropriate Armed Forces and an industry which provides them not only with all of the equipment, armament and material needed to comply with their functions but also that which is necessary in day-to-day operations to live, move and fight. National defence resources are therefore the Armed Forces and the industry that supplies them to carry it out.

When considering the attainment of these resources by the Armed Forces, i.e., all of the equipment and services needed for mission compliance, it is necessary to establish two major groups: firstly, the one related to armaments and weapons systems and secondly, the one related to all the other equipment and services. There is no question that there are significant differences in attainment between one and the other. The procurement policy of a weapons system presents major differences to the policy of acquiring goods and services not related to armaments.

The overall industry that supplies the Armed Forces with these resources is normally called the defence industry but then, when one hears this expression, the first thing one thinks of is armaments. Indeed, it is not only the first thing, it is often the only thing. We therefore forget about an entire industry which builds barracks, provides clothing, means of information and communication, food and a long list of complementary equipment and services for arms and ammunition systems which are needed to live, move and fight, as mentioned above.

The latter industry supplies these goods and services not only to the Armed Forces, it can also supply them to all the other

tgovernment bodies and private organisations that also require buildings, clothing, means of information and communication, food and the same long list of equipment and services to live, move, etc., and these days not to fight but to comply with their functions. That is why said equipment and services are today called dual-use goods and services.

Should we really call this dual-use goods and services industry the defence industry? Well, no, not really; but it is true that many companies have specialised in producing these dual-use goods and services for defence and which, although this portfolio is not their major customer, it is their principal client. So what should we call this industry? The Industry ‘for’ Defence as the AESMIDE Association does.

Spain has long been clear about this which is why, when the Defence Ministry promoted the association of industries which was going to supply it with all of these resources back in 1984 with a view to facilitating a dialogue to discuss the problems concerning contracting, it decided to create two associations: one for the industry most closely related to weapons systems and the other, AESMIDE, the Association of Contractor Companies for Public Authorities, for the industry not related to them.

What should be clear is that the industry for defence requires a differentiated customer care, as if it constituted a sector. Spanish industry is divided into sectors, and when the Government wants to promote it, it determines appropriate measures for each of them. This has recently been acknowledged in Europe.

The European Commission has published a guide to help SMEs tap into EU funding for dual-use projects (which it now defines using this expression). It is clearly fully aware of the need for institutional support and funding for this type of industry. The European defence policy is aware of needing it and that it

must support it institutionally, and the Spanish defence policy is beginning to be aware of it, too.

The 2nd Defence and Security Congresswas recently held at the General Military Academy in Zaragoza. Organised by this Association in collaboration with the Ministry of Defence, the ISDEFE Chair and the University of Zaragoza, over 150 specialists from universities, public research organisations (PROs), businesses and State Security Forces laboratories assembled at the General Military Academy. The Congress urged attendees to make use of the synergies between the civil and military spheres to achieve an interaction between research, innovation

and technology that would ensure a safer society. This synergy is necessary to successfully roll out, in favour of the security and defence policy, the outsourcing which has been taking place in the Spanish Armed Forces since the 1980s.

We could classify this outsourcing as elemental, basic and specialised. The first concern clearly auxiliary tasks, the types that were done instinctively from the time armies first began and through to the end of the 1980s. They involve the ad-hoc contracting of different supplies and services concerning: repair work, gardening, catering, food, cleaning, hair-dressing, etc. The second began to take place in the 1990s in the same areas as the previous stage, but prioritising the idea of permanent comprehensive service and with an approach focused on a lasting solution with longer terms. This meant signing contracts of a greater scope and importance: maintenance of installations and infrastructures, surveillance and security services; land, sea and air transportation of both personnel and material, specialised maintenance (vehicles, engines, aircraft), training in languages and IT, manufacturing, storage and distribution of clothing and equipment and waste disposal.

Finally, specialised services are those that have been performed since the mid-1990s in more laborious, complex and specific treatment areas and which are currently still being developed or perfected. They consist fundamentally of the maintenance of weapons systems where the goal is to sign multi-activity contracts with tier-one industrial suppliers which cover not just maintenance activities and spare parts supply but engineering services and deployment support.

All of these activities have shored up an industry which we call the industry for defence and which the Ministry classifies as the auxiliary industry. This industry features a great many small

and medium-sized enterprises and they are the ones that need special institutional support. In addition to the support measures that have already been announced and which are taking place, I suggest we add another one which the sector considers fundamental, i.e, facilitating the entry of SMEs in the supply chain, and the best way to do it is to globalise projects and ensure that technical specifications sheets for tenders enable joint ventures to provide a turnkey response to these projects.

Innovating with an eye on the markets

he Spanish Defence and Security industry is committed to continuing to grow, which is why it must strive to permanently improve on efficiency and competitiveness. Knowing too that technological innovation is the competitive edge that offers the most guarantees, it ploughs 10% of its turnover into R&D.

The years of contracting domestic demand, as a result of the restraint in public spending required to emerge from the crisis, have been fraught with difficulties, but they have also provided learning opportunities. Things learnt over this time include the fact that we know we can do things well and can therefore consolidate our position as a technological and industrial frontrunner, a position we have worked hard to earn and which is the outcome of our effort as an industrial sector.

In short, we are aware that our businesses need to persevere in R&D investment to continue to roll out inhouse technologies and products. That will be the spearhead to successfully moving onto

new markets and occupying technological niches that can give us an advantageous position over the competition. It’s as simple as selling the products you make yourself, and we make excellent products and technologies, under brand Spain, which already deliver an export figure of 70%.

In order to grow, Spanish industry wants to win new markets and customers for its excellent products and technologies. This can be achieved by focusing innovation on the market, and particularly international markets. In the same the way that Marcus Aurelius said that as an Antonine his fatherland was Rome but as a man it was the world, we are Spain’s industry, but we want, we can and we must think globally because our market is the world. We want to compete freely and under equal conditions on these global markets and that is the direction in which we are moving.

tOpportunities of the new cycleThe Defence and Security sector is starting a new investment cycle, to which it is urgent to adapt with flexibility and a proactive spirit. The indications are that this new cycle will be marked by the start of the economic recovery, to which we are keen to contribute in as far as our not inconsiderable possibilities allow.

A new cycle in which we can glimpse potential opportunities and growth in demand in the increasingly tenuous dividing lines between Defence and Security and civil R&D. We can also see opportunities in the progress of European regulations, the prioritising of industrial specialisation, European Union structural funds, the H2020 programme and the new framework being outlined for the Defence industry.

Similarly, we can see an asymmetry in the transfer of powers from Member States to the European Union. Moving forwards quickly in financial areas, although the process has yet to culminate, things are slower in Defence matters, which obviously go to the heart of sovereignty, while at the same time the crisis highlights the difficulties, if not the impossibility, of sustaining the investments in Defence and R&D that will be needed in the future without a close European collaboration.

These are opportunities we are keen to respond to, as I said before, by focusing innovation on the markets, but also by aligning ourselves to an industrial policy of State, perfecting public-private

cooperation tools with profitable and flexible business structures to become bigger, more capable and by joining forces. These are all priority targets for our companies.

Inhouse products and technologiesOne of our strengths is that as a sector we have delivered high levels of quality, qualification and competitiveness. We are one of the few nations whose businesses can handle the entire industrial process: innovation, production, deployment, maintenance and so on. We have the products, capabilities and competitive technologies in the areas of ground, naval and air platforms, in electronics and communications, in armaments and ammunition and in the space industry, among others. The sectoral structure, distributed into prime businesses, subcontractors and SMEs with their own products, allows us to lead complex projects,

participate in international programmes and have competitive specialised niches.

In short, we have forged an important position on markets which we are not willing to let fall by the wayside out of inertia. To get where we are, our industries have put a great deal of effort into their professionals, along with significant investment and a hearty degree of enthusiasm. These are the same traits we devote to the continuous improvement of existing products and the roll-out of new ones that integrate different technologies.

Examples include the international programmes our industry and products have taken part in, providing advanced technology services to the UK, Australia, Brazil, France, Saudi Arabia and Germany, among other countries. We have consolidated our reputation as partners they can trust and have become benchmarks for many of them.

Our companies are also no strangers to the dynamism that exists with respect to Security technologies and applications, a market with enormous growth potential. Our geographic position has led to us developing ground-breaking applications in border control and sea surveillance matters, to give just two examples, which are being used to a high level of satisfaction in numerous States.

Then there is the major technological challenges concerning cybersecurity today: an area where Spanish industry aims to continue to grow, as it has the expertise and capacity needed to move forwards in effective and competitive solutions that anticipate present and future threats.

To sum up, we are ready to tackle the Defence and Security challenges that must be faced over coming years. It is a challenge we will step up to at this time of transformations and changing scenarios, in which a number of very important variables come into play: security, sovereignty, budgetary restraints, new types of conflicts, economic growth, protection of technology assets and R&D.

It is a challenge to which businesses and governments must find effective and inclusive responses, as no economy, no society, is capable of progressing without a safe and stable environment.

Strategic alliancesThe governments of the countries that invest most heavily in Defence and Security, whether through their own programmes or multinational ones, support their national industries growing on foreign markets.

In export activity, most operations are based on cooperation agreements with local companies. In other words, strategic alliances

in their different forms, in accordance with their level of integration (establishment of consortia, joint ventures, stakes in companies or mergers and acquisitions).

Spanish companies also have vast experience in cooperation agreements with other countries, where they have efficiently and successfully managed tech transfers and transactions, models of corporate government and the identification, monitoring and management of contingent liabilities. Proof of this is the fact that more than two-thirds of their revenue came from international markets last year.

It is also necessary to consider that, on more than one occasion, commercial agreements initiated between companies of different nationalities end up becoming bilateral cooperation agreements between States that transcend the field of Defence and Security to include other areas, such as infrastructures and telecommunications.

In this respect, Spain not only has the experience of its companies, but also the support of its Government and Ministry of Defence, which have fostered the development of cooperation and export tools such as the government-to-government agreements that facilitate the transactions of certain products.

I believe there are the grounds to say that the Spanish Defence and Security industry has, at this time of profound changes, earned its technological and business stripes and has a

decidedly export vocation which demonstrates the powerful multiplier effect of economic activity (each euro invested in Defence generates €. 2.5 in economic activity). Ours is a strategic sector for the economy, not only in terms of Security and national sovereignty, but also as a generator of highly qualified employment, of the industrial fabric and of added value, as well as tech and knowledge transfers to other industries in the civil sphere.

There is no question that investing in Defence and Security is probably the most effective tool for articulating a country’s technology training which, through the trickle-down effect to the civil sector, ensures economic, technological and social returns vastly superior to the initial investment.

R&D+i in Defence and the Defence Technology Observatory

he Technological Surveillance and Forecasting System (SOPT) arose following approval from the Secretary of State for Defence on 5 January 2001 of the Ministry of Defence Research and Development Master Plan, introducing it as an instrument for implementation of the R&D policy.

Its main aim consists of providing the Ministry with technical criteria throughout all of its technological areas of action, strengthening the technological surveillance and prioritisation mechanisms to identify the technological advances and areas of interest through permanent interaction with the tech-nology and industrial base. The creation of the SOPT is supported by similar de-cisions made within the De-fence environment of Spain and countries such as the United Kingdom, France or Germany have departments similar to the SOPT.

From a technological view- point, the Defence sector faces the challenge imposed by the evolution of the environ-ment in terms of techno-logical advances and of the application of these advan-ces. One of the main goals of this challenge lies in identifying new technologies with significant disruptive potential. The problem of in-vesting in new technologies is the fact that a great many of them are promising during an initial stage of development and, if there is one factor that characterises them, it is that their evolution is unpredic-table as they progress in their development. The SOPT uses a series of tools such as technological surveillance, forecasting, prioritisation or evaluation to select these technologies. This provides it with the necessary technical criterion to make decisions.

tTechnology surveillance is a basic tool to ensure no ground in lost in light of the speed of advancing technology and is particularly relevant for building the basis upon which the activities supporting the decision lie. This surveillance seeks to identify initiatives and information for possible support for R&D programmes. To determine the current state of the art of technology, the SOPT performs a systematic analysis of sources of information and cooperates with similar organisations both at home and abroad. Worth noting is its active participation in the main military forums, such as the EDA (European Defence Agency), the STO

(Science and Technology Organization) belonging to NATO and the LOI EDIR FA (Letter of Intent for the European Defence Industrial Restructuration Framework Agreement).

In order to support decision making, during the medium and long-term planning of R&D activities the SOPT estimates the medium and long-term technological advances through the implementation of regular exercises performed by experts, research centres,

industry and universities, where information on technological trends, advances and challenges are collected in order to guide future efforts, paying special attention to identifying any factors leading to innovations both now and in the near future. To cover this wide technological spectrum, it is structured into Technology Observatories - one for each technological area of interest, although their number is continuously evolving in line with the dynamic role of the technological environment - in which experts from the Directorate General of Armament and

Material (DGAM) and from other Authorities, universities and companies take part. The participation of these internal and external collaborators is considered essential for providing a view of technology that is as all-encompassing and precise as possible.

Technological surveillance provides knowledge of the state of the art of technologies in order to make better investments. This knowledge enables the SOPT to technologically assess the R&D proposals received by the SDGPLATIN that are associated to the general armament procurement process and the promotion of R&D from international forums or from different national initiatives, such as the National COINCIDENTE (Cooperation in Scientific Research and Development in Strategic Technologies) Programme.

These new technologies are obtained after prioritising them all, optimising the use of resources through the analysis of technological advances, opportunities and potential threats, promoting their incorporation into common areas, such as Defence (Security, ITCs, Air Transport, Space, etc.). Furthermore, the agreement established in the European R&D policy are supported in order to increase the level of joint investment and improve returns, focusing European R&D investments on areas of interest to us.

Technological prioritisation is the basis on which the planning of R&D investments and the obtaining of material lie. Within this area, the SOPT supports Defence Planning in the technological aspects associated to the Planning of Material Resources. 2010 saw the publishing of the Technological and Innovation Strategy for Defence (ETID), a document that includes the lines of action for obtaining the necessary technologies to develop systems that require the capacities defined in the Military Plan. This provides a new tool that helps develop the priority technological lines and organise the management of the Defence R&D activities in a more efficient manner, promoting their situation within the general framework of national innovation and becoming a public

reference that encourages the coordination of technological research and innovation activities by the Ministry.

With regards to the sector, the ETID is a reference that indicates which research and innovation technologies and developments are necessary so that the industry can line up its activities with these needs. To highlight the aim of this strategy with regards to integration, a website (www.etid.es) is available and a series of sectorial conferences have been held with the industry, where all those interested formulated their observations and comments freely through forums and questionnaires for later analysis. It is important to note that, for this defence-civilian environment to interact and benefit from the activities performed by the SOPT, the information collected must not only be used as technical advice for the DGAM but must also be distributed through different mechanisms such as conferences and publications, one of the most representative being the Defence Technology Observation Bulletin, which is currently published every quarter and can be downloaded directly from the ETID website.

The Ministry of Defence is responsible not only for anticipating any risks and threats but also for contributing towards improving dual-use technological and industrial capacities for Defence. An example of the existing mechanisms for this adaptation is the SOPT located in the SDGPLATIN. The aim to act as liaison and provide knowledge of the industrial technological base is inherent to the essence of this System and, therefore, it is predisposed to assist this base in applying its capacities in the interests of Defence. The SOPT assesses technological proposals from universities and companies and is an excellent starting point for their distribution. It is also aware of the possibilities of the new lines of technology so that these possibilities can be transferred and the impact on Defence planning in terms of armament and material in both R&D programmes and in procurement can be known, making sure that the future systems have the best technological advantage possible to meet with their commitments in an environment that is also constantly changing.

Quality in the Spanish Defence sector. PECAL/AQAP series 2000 system

t is an accepted principle that the technological advances of humanity are mostly due to the efforts of man to defend himself and to attack his adversaries under the best conditions, using the skills and quality of the weaponry and accessories that have been used throughout history.

The technical evolution, which has progressed at an increasingly fast rate, mostly thanks to the wars fought in the 20th Century, has increased the heritage of technologies that initially applied

only to military equipment. The desire to incorporate them has also forced the technical echelons of Defence to evolve in terms of the systems used to control and ensure the quality of its applications.

The complexity of the weaponry systems and elements used by the Spanish Armed Forces (FAS), combined with the necessary reliability, difficulty of replenishment and high cost, has led to the systematisation and technification of suppliers’ procedures to guarantee the quality of their supplies.

Quality in the Defence sector in Spain. Historical backgroundThe FAS in Spain have always provided teaching, units and means aimed at quality management in its procurements of military equipment.

iAware of the importance of procurement quality, the Spanish Ministry of Defence promoted the creation of the instrument (teaching and means) to ensure that any elements used by our Armed Forces are worthy of receiving the stamp of the highest quality.

Following the entry of Spain into NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) in May 1982, our country now signs its agreements and doctrines regarding quality.

STANAG 4107, endorsed by the allied nations involved in the procurement of Defence material, refers to the “Mutual Acceptance of Government Quality Assurance (GQA) and Usage of the AQAP (Allied Quality Assurance Publications)” and establishes the rules for delegating contract-related GQA activities.

On endorsing this agreement, the national authority (the Director General of Armaments Weaponry and Material - DGAM - in Spain) agreed to provide an Official Inspection service in the country for Quality Assurance in contracts signed by another Member State in all areas of Defence supply services.

These GQA activities are primarily developed within the industries by the QAR (Quality Assurance Representative of the Ministry of Defence) appointed by the DGAM for each specific

are merely ISO 9000 standards with a series of additional NATO requirements. Spanish PECAL regulations are the transposition of AQAP regulations.

The implementation of quality management systems in line with AQAP/PECAL standards in the different organisations ensures that contracting bodies trust the capacity of suppliers to meet contractual requirements, consolidate quality management and contribute towards a sought-after continuous improvement.

In line with its scope, there are two types of PECAL: contractual and guide. This regulatory structure means that the most

suitable standard for each contract can be selected and requested at any given time, thus enabling the purchaser and the supplier to effectively schedule resources and optimise the investment.

PECAL contractual standards are the most important, as they mean that the supplier must provide objective proof that he has established and maintains a quality management system related to the contract. The system must contain the necessary elements to assure the QAR

that the product meets with contractual requirements.

The standards of PECAL series 2000, which may be included in contracts and that establish quality assurance requirements, are as follows:

• PECAL 2110 NATO Requirements for Quality Assurance in Design, Development and Production.

• PECAL 2120 NATO Requirements for Quality Assurance in Production.

• PECAL 2130 NATO Requirements for Quality Assurance in Inspection and Testing.

• PECAL 2131 NATO Requirements for Quality Assurance in Final Inspections. (Non-certifiable)

• PECAL 2210 NATO Requirements for Quality Assurance in Software, in addition to 2110.

contractor and his activities are undertaken based on suitably identifying and assessing risks.

However, the scope of the activities associated to Government Quality Assurance can also include assessment of the capacity of the quality management system of potential suppliers and the supervision of activities related to the contract on the appropriate level. The most important aspect of the GQA is ensuring the supplier meets all contractual requirements.

The NATO agreement involves acknowledgements and action such as the following, among others:

• Establish the DGAM, as the National Quality Assurance Authority, for all Official Ins-pection requests from NATO agencies or countries to Spain and from Spain to the different NATO countries.

• Translate and publish AQAP standards as Spanish Quality Publications, PECAL standards. These standards were translated by the for-mer Technical Industrial Ins-pection Service, now known as the Industrial Inspection Area (IIA) of the Sub-direc-torate General for Technical Inspection and Services of the Spanish Ministry of Defence.

• Establish PECALs as standards of reference for work by Ministry of Defence Official Inspection personnel.

• Disseminate PECAL standards among companies in the sector. Once known by the industries in the Defence sector, these publications acted as a catalyser to ensure and boost the implementation process for quality management systems in these industries.

• Assess the companies supplying Defence, ensuring they have quality management systems that meet the requirements of any of the contractual AQAP/PECALs.

Quality regulations in DefenceQuality regulations in Defence are formed by the series of AQAP series 2000 standards. NATO criteria uses international standards to their utmost extension. Hence, AQAP standards

22/Spain_2015

• PECAL 2310 NATO Requirements for the quality management systems of aviation, special and Defence suppliers.

The ‘guide type’ publications of the PECAL series 2000 standards must not be used as contractual documents. Their contents do not replace, add, cancel or redefine any of the requirements of a contract and are merely a guide to facilitate the understanding, interpreting and application of contractual PECAL regulations in organisations.

PECAL series 2000 guide-type standards are as follows:

• PECAL 2070, which pro-vides guidance for Govern-ment Quality Assurance under STANAG 4107 conditions and supports the harmonisation of GQA practice among NATO Countries, Agencies and Head-quarters.

• PECAL 2000 Quality policy aimed at Integrated Systems during their Lifecycle.

• PECAL 2009 NATO Guide for the use of PECAL series 2000 standards, which is cu-rrently being published.

Certification of quality management systems in line with PECAL/AQAP Series 2000 standardsCertification by the Ministry of Defence - Directorate General of Armaments and Material dated back to 1986, as of the implementation of STANAG 4107, and has the following objectives:

• Prior to awarding the contract, ensure the capacity of Spanish companies to meet any quality requirements established.

• Inform NATO countries and agencies of the quality system of the companies.

• Facilitate access by Spanish companies to bid for tender in procurement contracts abroad.

The need to implement PECAL standards in organisations and obtain acknowledgement in the form of the PECAL certificate granted by the Director Generate of Armament and Material is determined by the type of contract for which each organisation can present a bid in an aim to obtain contractual links to the Ministry of Defence.

At present, there are around two hundred certified companies from different sectors and of varying sizes. Initial certification according to PECAL standards is granted by the DGAM following an audit performed by qualified personnel from the Ministry of Defence.

In order to gradually outsource the auditing system supported by the ‘PECAL series 2000 certification system’, the audits for certificate renewal are to be performed, following authorisation by the DGAM Deputy Director General for Technical Inspection and Services (SDGINSERT), by Certification organisations duly recognised by the Mixed Defence-IAMD Committee (CMDIN).

The quality management system certification system according to PECAL/AQAP series 2000 standards

To ensure the implementation of this certification system in an environment of independence, confidentiality, transparency and gradual accessibility by all Armament and Defence Material Industries (IAMD), the Mixed Defence-IAMD Committee was formed, which acts on delegation by the DGAM. Furthermore, the mission of the CMDIN is to promote cooperation and participation by the different players involved in the certification of IAMD quality systems according to PECAL series 2000 and to supervise and manage the application of documents supporting the System.

The certification system was presented in May 2003. The following stages of the PECAL/AQAP series 2000 system then started:

> c o m m i t m e n t t o e x c e l l e n c e

2015_Spain/23

2. The certification organisation selected must perform annual follow-up audits. The results of the follow-up and renewal audits are supervised by the AII/SDGINSERT, which are involved in the certificate renewal process.

The PECAL 2210 standard is not included within this certification system and not all audits are performed by AII/SDGINSERT personnel.

Role of the Spanish Quality Association (AEC)Within the heart of the Spanish Quality Association is the Defence Industries and Services Committee that, among others, acts as a meeting point among Defence suppliers and the Ministry itself in terms of aspects relating to quality. It also disseminates, promotes and improves knowledge on quality regulations involving contracts and facilitates an understanding of the specific quality requirements of this portfolio.

Recently, this AEC Defence Industries and Services Committee produced a guide book in ‘Certification and the maintaining of the PECAL/AQAP system certificate’, which explained the activities to be performed by an organisation in the sector in order to enter the PECAL/AQAP system.

The document is formed by a series of simple flow charts that represent the following activities:

• Initial procedures for the first PECAL/AQAP certificate.

• Initial audit perform by the Ministry of Defence in the PECAL/AQAP System.

• Renewal of the certificate and entry into the PECAL/AQAP System.

• Notification of changes in scope and facilities.

1. From June 2003 to December 2003: prior adaptation stage of the PECAL/AQAP series 2000 certification system.

2. From January 2004 to October 2006: 1st Phase of the PECAL/AQAP series 2000 certification system, applied to 6 Armament and Material Industries (IAMDs).

3. From November 2006 to January 2008: 1st stage of the 2nd Phase of the PECAL/AQAP series 2000 certification system, which consisted of gradual and progressive accessibility to the system by the remaining Armament and Material Industries.

4. From February 2008 to date: final implementation of the 2nd Phase of the PECAL/AQAP series 2000 certification system.

Different aspects of the Quality management system certification according to PECAL/AQAP series 2000 StandardsThe following issues must be clarified in relation to the certification process according to PECAL/AQAP series 2000 standards and the subsequent entry into the PECAL/AQAP series 2000 certification system:

To obtain the PECAL certificate and subsequently enter to form part of the System, the interested company must have a quality management system implemented in line with Standard UNE-EN ISO 9001.

The process is initially started by the AII/SDGINSERT, which performs the initial audit and, where applicable, grants the IAMD quality management system certificate for a certain scope. This certificate remains valid for a period of approximately three years. During this time and until renewal, no PECAL follow-up audits are required by any organisation, apart from in exceptional circumstances.

1. Following this period, the certificate is renewed for three-yearly periods following renewal audits performed by certification organisations selected by the IAMDs from those approved by the CMDIN.

Future Prospects of the Defence Industry

ll actions directed at boosting industrial activity in general and the defence sector in particular are welcome. That’s why the announcement by the Ministry of Defence of a budget increase in 2015, the first since 2008, and the launch by the Ministry of Industry of an agenda with 90 measures to foster the reindustrialisation of Spain is news that encourages optimism about the future of Spain’s production industry.

Defence is a key area for European and Spanish reindustrialisation. The industry presently represents around 15% of GDP and the goal is to bring it up to 20% by 2020. The activity of the Spanish defence industry has a clearly multiplier effect for GDP as a whole. We are talking about a production sector formed of approximately 400 businesses that employ over 23,000 people directly and a further 50,000 indirectly. In fact, each euro spent in this sector puts an additional 2.6 euros into the economy, and even its export activity presents a multiplier factor of more than 3.

We must remember that this is a sector with a vast capacity for generating knowledge and investment in R&D which are later used

aby other sectors. It is a sector with highly advanced technological capabilities but, as the Government also reminds us, it is too small to achieve a “strong international positioning and access funding” and is a fragmented market as an upshot of national contracts that produce a large variety of fairly non-standardised products.

From the budgetary viewpoint, everything seems to suggest that Spain is facing a change of cycle that allows us to look to the future with certain optimism. In his appearance before the lower house of Parliament on 6 October, the Secretary of State for Defence, Pedro Argüelles, spelt out the key points of his department’s budget for 2015. After a number of years marked by the need to correct economic imbalances, the Ministry of Defence will this year increase its budget for the first time since 2008. The improvement is very small, barely 0.38%, but it allows us to speak of a change of trend within the government.

The arrival of the financial crisis resulted in an “ongoing absence of new investments” and the defence industry’s capabilities were not able to be modernised to the standard required. In this context, as Mr Argüelles said, Spain’s industry is losing its technological positioning, “making itself more vulnerable to acquisitions on the part of large foreign companies”. The Government’s reaction was to implement a work plan to define an industrial policy for defence with two main purposes: to achieve sustained investment which would make it possible to maintain the modernisation cycle of the Armed Forces and protect a national defence industry which is “essential” to sovereignty.

Within this work plan, a series of actions have been designed that focus on four main areas which the Government hopes will become the basis of its industrial policy for defence: the drafting of a study of core capabilities is essential, as has been done in other countries; the implementation of an R&D plan linked to boosting and training in the industry; a review of the industrial model for defence, focusing it on consolidation and shoring it up within a general framework for improved competitiveness; and the search for stable funding. We would hope that this investment stimulus will remain steady over time, but it would have to avoid the political vagaries of successive governments and the financial crisis itself, which in recent years has been the catalyst behind this important budgetary adjustment.

financial commitments associated with military programmes have also failed to recover the investment drive.

The action areas proposed by the government and targeted at stimulating demand, improving competitiveness, fostering innovation and boosting financing alternatives to the banking channel are steps in the right direction and cover some of the reforms our industry needs. What is essential now is the effective adoption of specific measures needed to reach the targets.

Global indicators are also encouraging with regards innovation. The latest market surveys indicate that defence and aerospace companies at a global level will significantly increase their investment in R&D over the coming years, although they will opt for creating associations with suppliers and clients to obtain maximum performance from the investment in innovation and to cut costs and improve sales revenue. This is one of the main conclusions of a survey KPMG carried out internationally, called the 2014 Global Aerospace & Defense Outlook. This was a poll on the prospects of the global aerospace and defence sector in 2014, in which nine out of every 10 executives consulted around the world considered that partnerships, more than internal efforts, will determine the future of innovation. Given that only 40% thought this way in 2013, this year’s poll shows a very marked trend towards partnerships in R&D in this specific sector. This trend towards establishing partnerships with clients and suppliers to invest in innovation was shown across the board in all areas of the industry.

Three-quarters of the people polled in this sector around the world said that their companies planned to target between 2% and 3% of their revenue in R&D over the next two years, and 16% said they would invest between 4% and 5%. This would be a considerable increase in this area, as over half said they had dedicated no more than around 1% of their revenue to R&D in the previous two years. 75% of the people polled also said they would focus their investment effort firstly on boosting existing product ranges before they invest in radically innovative technologies.

The defence industry needs institutional support to finance its R&D investments, an aspect we continue to improve on to bring us more into line with other countries. Tomorrow’s sales depend to a large extent on the research we do today, which must come to fruition in the near future in innovative products and manufacturing processes.

At a time when the R&D budget is under increasing pressure, many companies are seeking opportunities to shore up both revenue and profitability, whether by establishing a greater presence on new markets or adapting their product and service ranges to adjacent sectors. Indeed, as is clearly illustrated in the report, sector businesses are more focused than ever on formalising associations and creating more collaborative business models to be able to

deliver on these goals. However, almost half the people polled in the survey admitted they are only “somewhat efficient” when it comes to determining their profitability and just 12% considered themselves to be “very efficient”.

Another point to mention with regards the report is that control over the supply chain has been a challenge for the aerospace and defence sector. In fact, almost half the participants mentioned it as one of the two biggest challenges in relation to the

supply chain. 51% said they only had a “certain visibility” with regards their tier-one suppliers and none in relation to their tier-two ones. When seeking new growth opportunities, many sector organisations now focus on entering new markets and taking advantage of the right opportunity to get the most from their services and products on adjacent markets. It is no surprise that this year’s poll shows that sector organisations are striving to adapt their supply chains to cover these possible new markets.

The 2014 Global Aerospace & Defense Outlook suggests that the next few years will give way to an era of collaboration which will radically impact the way that sector businesses operate. Adapting operating models to tackle this revolutionary complexity is no easy task for industry executives; it is important that companies start planning now.

‘Boom System’, a Spanish development

that improves the security and speed of in-flight refuelling

for many different Air Forces worldwide

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y /a i r c r a f t s e c t o r

he ARBS has been designed by Airbus Defence and Space to refuel receptacle-equipped receivers such as the F-16 Fighting Falcon, the F-35A Lighting II or the A330 MRTT itself (when equipped with receptacle, Universal Aerial Refuelling Receptacle Slipway Instalation, UARRSI).

Located underneath the rear fuselage of the tanker aircraft, the boom mast is remotely controlled from an Air Refuelling Console in the flight deck, where an Air Refuelling Operator uses an advanced technology 2D/3D high definition/digital Enhanced Vision System. Adverse weather, day or night refuelling can be performed,

thanks to its stereoscopic vision and laser based infrared lighting systems.

This gives safer operation and a reduced workload for the Air Refuelling Operator, while enabling the tanker crew to be located together in the flight deck.

The ARBS is equipped with an all electrical, full fly-by-wire flight control system. It is provided with an automatic load alleviation system, and has autonomous disconnect for the receiver and the tanker, and has been designed under the dual redundant architecture (fail operational, fail safe).

Secure communication is possible though the boom. The boom mast and equipment require on-condition maintenance only.

The ARBS boom design provides a geometrical envelope larger than that of previous tankers (KC-135) facilitating safer contacts and refuelling operations.

The fuel flow rate of the ARBS is up to 1200 US gal/min (up to 4600 l/min) at 50 psig, making it the most capable new generation flight proven boom available today. This high rate of fuel transfer greatly reduces the refuelling operation time.

The ARBS is a flight proven and mature system as hundreds of contacts have been made with different receiver types such as F-16s, F-15, E-3 AWACS and KC-30A. The ARBS has been certified for operations in 2010.

Programme developmentThe launch of the ARBS development involves support by Airbus D&S for the A330 MRTT programme for multi-purpose transport and tanker aircraft that require a system of this type for the in-flight refuelling of most US-designed fighter planes operated by the air forces worldwide (F-16, F-15, etc.). It was launched for bids in 2001 and, in 2004, enabled Airbus D&S to successfully compete against Boeing for the contract for the new tanker planes of the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). This contract turned the RAAF into the spearhead client of the A330 MRTT.

As a result of the development of the ARBS and the signing of the tanker aircraft contract with Australia, Airbus D&S has become a leader in the world tanker aircraft market, which was a monopoly of its main competitor ten years ago.

Thanks to the capacity and operational flexibility of the A330 MRTT, there are other business lines linked to the incorporation of new missions, such as the VIP transport in aircraft equipped with secure communication systems and self-protection systems, as well as intelligence and surveillance missions.

he space industry plays an influential and strategic role in Spain’s production sector. Although it represents only 0.02% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP), its special characteristics make it a highly competitive sector which is attractive to investors and which can drive the economy. What are these attributes? Firstly, it is a segment which invests heavily in research and development (R&D). The latest figures from the Spanish Association of Defence, Aeronautics, Security and Space Technology Companies (TEDAE) suggest that the level of investment in R&D in the space sector is double that of the rest of Spanish industry.

The strong multiplication effect the space industry has proven to have within the Spanish economy is also very significant, due to the cutting-edge technology it develops and the numerous applications that satellites have at present. Examples include the fields of navigation (GPS), weather forecasting and satellite television (DTH). At the same time, it is important to consider its vocation of highly qualified personnel, based on very specialised

The Space Industry in Spain

tengineers and technicians, as well as its multidisciplinary core. Finally, and no less importantly, the Spanish space sector is an export and production group. Almost 80% of its turnover is targeted at exporting products and services, which has given it greater resistance to the negative effects of the financial crisis within

Spain. Furthermore, from the productivity viewpoint, measured as gross added value per employed person, the sector posted over 106,000 euros in 2012, compared to the average of 53,000 euros for Spanish industry as a whole.

Considering the value chain they generate, within the space sector it is common to distinguish between upstream and downstream markets. The first covers research, defence and security programmes, as well as the industry dedicated to building ground segment facilities (satellite control centres) and flight segment platforms (launchers, satellites, craft, probes, etc.). Downstream market activity focuses on operators who manage space facilities and equipment for civil or military use and satellite applications or services or those based on space technology such as telecommunications (television, radio, mobile phones and broadband), navigation equipment (GPS, Galileo) and remote sensing.

designed to find planets outside of our solar system. Cheops is nothing short of an industrial milestone, being the first European Space Agency (ESA) satellite to be built in Spain. Bidding for the contract was strong and included competitors such as the British company Surrey Satellite, which specialises in this type of low-cost platform.

behemoths like Airbus Defence and Space to small businesses with just two or three enthusiastic and pioneering engineers, such as PLD Space, a startup born in a laboratory in Valencia which is working on the first Spanish liquid-propellant rocket targeted at suborbital missions.

Airbus Defence and Space is a good example of what the space industry can do here at home. The heir of the historic CASA-Espacio, the Spanish division of the European multinational has prospered considerably in the past 10 years. It started out developing projects of relatively little value but as these challenges were met and it gradually integrated into Europe, the division now builds very competitive medium-sized satellites and is a player on the tempestuous international market. Airbus D&S is, for example, the lead contractor with Paz, a Spanish radar satellite due to be launched from Russia in 2015 and which is part of the National Earth Observation Programme (PNOTS), signed by the Ministries of Defence and Industry in 2007. All the technology developed in Paz, and especially in its partner satellite, the Seosat/Ingenio optical satellite, enabled Airbus to win the Cheops contract, a medium-sized platform

The name SENER is also associated with success and experience in space. Its commitment to technology has made it a benchmark supplier of engineering and production services in three fields of activity: precision mechanisms, optical systems and Guidance, Navigation and Control (GNC) systems. SENER has delivered over 260 pieces of equipment and systems which have been successfully launched on satellites and space vehicles for agencies including NASA, the ESA, Japan’s JAXA and Russia’s Roskosmos. It took part in the Gaia mission, the Curiosity vehicle sent to Mars and the now-famous Rosetta probe, as well as in weather and science satellites. The latest result of this pursuit of innovation was the signing of the contract for the Proba-3 mission, making this company, originally established in the Basque Country, the first Spanish firm to lead a complete ESA mission.

GMV, which recently celebrated its 30th anniversary, also warrants a place in this commentary, as it is the world’s leading supplier of ground control systems for commercial telecommunications satellite operators. It is also the leading Spanish company and the third in Europe in terms of participation in the development of the Galileo satellite navigation system, developing key elements in the ground

segment. Its activities include satellite control centres, flight dynamics, mission planning and data processing. One of its star products, launched in October 2013, goes by the name of platform-art; it is an advanced robotic laboratory for testing space systems and missions, the first of its type to be set up in Europe.

Within this variety of business profiles, of note is Elecnor Deimos, which operates out of Puertollano (Ciudad Real) and is the owner of the Deimos-2, the first very high resolution (VHR) Spanish Earth observation satellite. Its characteristics make it capable of taking images with a precision of 75 centimetres per pixel. The Deimos-2, developed in collaboration with South Korean firm Satrec-I, is the private satellite with the greatest resolution in Europe. Launched in June, it has been fully operational from the commercial viewpoint since November and can be used in applications such as extensive agriculture, crisis control and civil protection, the environment, territorial organisation and

defence, intelligence and border control. Its most important clients include the Spanish Home Office and the US Department of Agriculture.

Unlike groups such as Hispasat, which only operates satellites, Deimos is present in all phases of the placing in orbit of these

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y /s p a c e S e c t o r

types of artefacts: design, construction, launch, operation, tracking and commercial exploitation. It is also experienced, as it already has a remote sensing platform in space, the Deimos-1, whose service life is about to expire.

Hispasat, for its part, is a heavyweight firm in the national space sector. It is eighth in the world ranking of satellite operators, while at the regional level it is the fourth-largest firm in terms of revenue in Latin America, where it has the Brazilian subsidiary Hispamar, with which it operates various orbit positions, competing with major multinationals like Intelsat, Eutelsat and SES.

Hispasat, which was established in 1989 to cover the Barcelona Olympics, today has seven satellites (including the Amazonas 4A which is not operative), as well as the ones controlled by its affiliate Hisdesat. For late 2015 it plans to deploy the Hispasat AG-1 based on a new, more versatile and modern electrical propulsion platform, and one year later expects to launch the Hispasat 1F, which should replace the Hispasat 1D. Its ambitious business plans involve the consolidation of the Latin American market and expansion to

potential clients in the east of the planet, where there is a strong fragmentation of operators in Asia, Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Australia.

The list is completed with zero2infinity, a good representative of what we could call New Space, i.e., space technology companies which prefer to do business without having to depend on public administration contracts (NASA, ESA, governments). For the past five years, this Catalan startup has been running near-space balloon flights with technical, scientific and commercial tools at a height of more than 30 kilometres. Now it is striving to gain a foothold in the space

tourism market, against such well-known and powerful brands as Virgin Galactic. The difference is that this firm proposes making suborbital flights in a stratospheric balloon called a bloon, which is not a conventionally propelled craft, thus avoiding the discomforts of gravitational

force. It works with around 10 to 12 travel agencies and already has a booked ticket number it prefers not to disclose for voyages that could sell for 110,000 euros each. zero2infinity is presently seeking national and foreign funding to make its first manned flight in 2015 or 2016 from Cordoba, where it has already run a number of engine trials. And it has just announced that it will design the Bloostar project, a launch vehicle specifically for nanosatellites, in other words, those that weigh between one and 10 kilos, which would use a balloon in a preliminary phase, with the rockets being ignited in a gravity-free environment, thus saving costs through reduced fuel spend.

avantia’s Systems unit is the centre of excellence for the design, rollout and integration of high-technology complex systems, providing sysadmin skills as a differentiating element compared to traditional shipyards.

Navantia Sistemas defines, develops, produces and integrates combat systems for the shipbuilding units that Navantia builds, is responsible for the development of command and control systems and platform management systems and works on the new through-life support models.

Its facilities are unique in Spain and it is a benchmark centre for system integration work both on ships built at the shipyard and those already in service in other Navy fleets and which need modernising.

Navantia Sistemas has its own products, with a high level of specialisation, but it is also capable of supplying and selling vessels with third-party systems, and is also responsible for their definition and integration.

nIntegrated Platform Management System (IPMS) Its fundamental objective is to supervise and control the different types of equipment installed onboard, except for the combat system. It supplies the knowledge and organises and transmits it for correct decision-making on the part of the vessel’s command.

It comprises an operator console (surveillance, alarm and order-issue functions), local substations (which collect information, execute control algorithms and send orders to the actuators) and a data transmission network (configurable with any physical medium on the market, adaptable to the ship’s characteristics).

It uses a distributed (not centralised) and redundant architecture with the same

functionality for all operator consoles, making it possible to distribute platform management among any combination of operator consoles you desire. The main purpose is to ensure that the platform status information is accessible from any console.

The control of each service is assigned to a single console and only users with the category of supervisor are able to vary this assignation.

All of the ships in the Spanish Navy have this new system, as do other vessels that Navantia has built for other Navy fleets including those of Norway, Australia and Venezuela. It has also been implemented in the modernisation of 16 ships for the Spanish Navy.

current systems, is based on the use of a high-resolution uncooled infrared detector with a navigation system (inert or GPS). This makes it possible to present customised information inside the vehicle on the route, next points along the way, vehicle status, etc., and equip it with a Self-Protection System without the server being outside the vehicle.

Other system benefits:

– Modular, so you can install small arms (7.62 or 12.70), allowing common use of equipment and systems with other Defence programmes, without compromising mission requirements.– Improves precision, saving on ammunition.

Land Search and Reconnaissance System (LSRS)A modern, cutting-edge and multifunctional design adaptable to any vehicle and mission and fully integrated with the other vehicle systems. It is equipped with the following systems:

• Battlefield Search Electro-Optical (EO) System for target location based on latest-generation EO sensors, both passive (IR, visible) and active (laser).

• Navigation and Driving Assistance System.

• Integrated Self-Protection System with small arms (7.62 or 12.70) remote control.

• Battlefield Management System, with automatic tools to aid the specific mission.

It makes it possible to perform surveillance, detection and target identification functions during the day, at night or under conditions of reduced visibility. Plus, the integrated positioning sensors can locate targets geographically with extraordinary precision, automating the process, cutting mission times and improving observer efficacy.

The goal is to provide the vehicle with all-time operability and, compared to

Joint use of the LSRS and the support weapons’ units (mortars and cannons) makes it possible to revitalise these units and elevate them to an extraordinary level of precision and speed of action.

Command and Control Systems (CCS)SCOMBA is a version for the Spanish Navy, installed in its most modern vessels, such as the BAM series, the LHD Juan Carlos I and the supply ship in combat Cantabria. It was developed on the basis of the F100 frigates, with an important contribution from the Spanish Navy, collecting its doctrine and a specific information and intelligence management in line with its requirements.

It also has an export line, called CATIZ, which includes the functionality of an advanced C2 starting from the SCOMBA reference and its other developments such as a proven system, feeding from the experience of its operative use in Spanish Navy vessels and at the same time prepared to be offered to fleets that require it, adjusting to their specific requirements.

It is a modular system that can be adapted to different combat system configurations, including new ships and modernisations. It capabilities include mission control, tactical information management, classification and identification, doctrine management, threat assessment, sensor management, weapon selection and control, tactical navigation,

mission evaluation, recruitment, air control, data registration and training.

It also has a laboratory where new technologies or developments that could have an application in Command and Control Systems are implemented and tested and integrations are performed on new detectors and weapons via a systematised process based on agreements with its suppliers. Its modular nature guarantees the reusability of the developments and the ability to offer updates with new capabilities to its various customers.

The incorporation of an inhouse CCS (and other systems) is key to optimally guaranteeing customer satisfaction throughout the ship’s service life, both indirectly (assistance) and by transferring it to the end user to a greater or lesser extent (training in maintenance tasks, tech transfers, development centres and training centres). It also enables Navantia to guarantee the times and provisions of its ships for export.

Communications Systems (NAVCOMS)Two decades’ experience as a communication systems integrator, with over 25 communications systems in service on Spanish Navy vessels, thanks to its support for national development,

and those of other Navy fleets, has made Navantia a technical benchmark capable of adapting design, production and acquisitions to the ship’s building strategy.

The Integrated Communications Control System (ICCS) centralises, controls, supervises and administers the vessel’s communication resources.

Because of increasingly more demanding tactical scenarios, the system has evolved at the same time as automatic telephone systems, whose functioning is very similar, from manual commutation to analogue automatic commutation, from these to TDM (Time Division Multiplex) digital commutation and finally to those based on an IP (Internet Protocol) platform.

For this latter generational leap, Navantia Sistemas has decided to develop and make available a product called HERMESYS based on COTS (Commercial Off-The-Shelf) units to reduce prices and boost process power.

Development began in 2011 and the process is presently in an advanced state, as a greater capacity of the information process, a lower rollout cost and the implementation of new capabilities can be checked, along with lower maintenance costs and easy onboard installation and lower weights.

HERMESYS makes it possible to nationalise a system which until now was exclusively a foreign production, as it permits NAVCOMS products to have a larger component of national industry.

At present it has a development platform with an important number of engineers who specialise in software and hardware development, which has been equipped with real units (transceivers, coders, modems, message handling system, analogue simulators). This platform permits the implementation of new capabilities and will allow the debugging and testing of the software versions required for each ship.

‘Dorna’ Fire ControlDORNA is a distributed and modular weapons’ control system that can be adapted to different ships, combat systems, weapons and sensors, including multiweapon and multisensor support. It is currently in service on Spanish Navy ships and those of other countries.

The EO and REO versions are completely integrated with the C2 CATIZ to ensure defence against air and surface threats and provides primary surveillance, combat, maintenance and training functions.

The DORNA Fire Control system has been integrated in and is operative with OM 76 mm, MK 45, MK 42, BAE 57 mm and other naval artillery assemblies and can be configured for any type of cannon or, where applicable, point-defence missiles.

Capabilites:

• Surveillance and detection.• Automatic acquisition and

monitoring of air and surface targets.• Acceptance of external

designations.• Assignation of weapons and combat, including coastal and

indirect fire.• Training mode.

Leading Solutions

worldwide for Indirect Fire

Support

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y /g r o u n d s e c t o r

XPAL has developed a complete range of Integral Solutions for Indirect Fire Support, particularly for Mortar Systems, which includes products from the ammunition till the weapon system and its integration into vehicles (EIMOS) or the Fire Support Information System (TECHFIRE), the microUAV for Forward Observer role and the electronic training aids (eTRAIDS) to facilitate training and logistic support.

EXPAL is a worldwide leader in mortar systems, for platform and ammunition. Its products are supplied to the main Military Forces around the world becomingan excellent fire support in current scenarios. This leadership has been possible due to EXPAL internal developments wich have been taking place in propelling charges and modification of mortar massand aerodynamic characteristics, also seeking for lighter platforms. This combination increases the estimated scope in 10% for calibers of 60 and 81 mm, ranges up to 10 km for 120 mm calibers.

eEIMOS, the Integrated Mortar System for 81/60mm ammunition, on a 4x4 Light Vehicle:EIMOS is a unique system in the market integrating an EXPAL 81 mm mortar, in a 4X4 lightweight vehicle. It is the natural evolution of the mortar, the adaptation of a traditional weapon to the current technological situation that fits with the latest Army requirements in the Mortar Fire Support scene.

EXPAL has been pioneer, starting this evolutionary weapon line, answering the

necessities of more urgent fire support actions in current conflicts. The combination of a 81 mm long-range mortar and a 4x4 lightweight vehicle, results in a weapon system with firepower and high mobility suited to support the units in nowadays missions, where responsiveness and mobility are crucial.

Automatic aiming and control system facilitates shooting procedures as well as it allows EIMOS to get into Fire Position rapidly. The system improves precision with minimum effort, less instruction and personnel required, and saving firepower. All of this allows EIMOS to give high efficient response to fire support orders.

EIMOS presents an interface to the platform, an elastic device, an automatic aiming system, plus a shooting control system. The elastic device developed reduces the efforts and vibrations transmitted to the vehicle, due to its long crossing design and optimized brake, allowing integration in most of the light all-terrain vehicles, without significant adaptations.

EIMOS can be used in association with TECHFIRE, the EXPAL Fire Support Information System for Mortar and Artillery Guns, allowing to automate the ballistic calculations, getting the maximum advantage to the latest technological advances, including

The ASCOD - national development with an international impact

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y /g r o u n d s e c t o r

anta Bárbara Sistemas, part of the European group General Dynamics, is a leader in the defence industry and, in particularly, an authority on the design and manufacture of tested and versatile tracks and wheels platforms. Its international vocation positions it amongst the main suppliers of systems and solutions for the world’s most modern Armed Forces, and its products, whether ASCOD tracked armoured vehicles, wheeled armoured vehicles such as the PIRAñA 5, or artillery systems 155/52 SIAC, they are highly regarded on the international market.

Its solid track record in serving and satisfying its clients makes Santa Bárbara Sistemas a privileged partner to deliver solutions on the designs, development and production of armoured and armour-plated tracked and wheeled systems, as well as on their upgrading.

sWe are specifically talking about the ASCOD family of tracked vehicles, based on the experience and know-how gained from the Pizarro programme of the Spanish Army. The Spanish and Austrian Armies already have over 300 units of this vehicle in service, which is known as Pizarro in Spain and Ulan in Austria, with different versions to respond to the most demanding and complex missions. Furthermore, the ASCOD was an international winner of the SV Programme (Specialist Vehicle) of the Ministry of Defence of the United Kingdom,

consolidating it as the tracked vehicle of the future and laying down the principles to ensure its ongoing evolution.

From 30 to 42 tonsLast September the British Ministry of Defence took a decisive step forward by signing a contract to manufacture 589 SV platforms in six variants, meaning this vehicle is on track to become a central part of British armour-plated units in the 21st century. As part of the arrangement, Santa Bárbara Sistemas will supply all of the landing crafts, running gear, engines and other components of the series. It will also be responsible for the assembly, integration and testing of the first 100 units, with an option for integrating and testing the existing platforms in Spain too.

The SV platform has been developed based on the experience gained through the ASCOD family of vehicles up to 42 tons. It includes different variants such as SCOUT (with turret and 40 mm cannon), PMRS (personnel carrier), Repair and Recovery. To ensure the maturity of the systems, almost 5,000 drawings and over 80 technical documents have been produced, as well as 10.000 of kilometres for tests and trials of all kinds.

The ASCOD family, which includes 30 to 42-ton models, is ready for modular adaptation to present and future technologies and to respond to the most demanding mission profiles.

One example of this versatility is the 35-ton display presented by Santa Bárbara Sistemas to the tender opened by the Danish Ministry of Defence to replace the age-old M-113s in service. The ASCOD-DK has successfully passed the tough field trials performed in mid 2014 and has demonstrated its off-road suitability and capacity for growth as a future platform, thanks to its new features such as rubber tracks and other sub-systems.

Piraña 5, maximum survivalIn the area of armoured wheeled vehicles, Santa Bárbara Sistemas also has long-standing experience in the design and manufacture of a broad range of platforms from 8 to 33 tons, manufactured at various sites in Spain, Switzerland and Austria that have demonstrated their capacities in zones of operations as harsh and unforgiving as, for instance, Afghanistan.

With over 10,000 units across the world, the development of the PIRAñA family, a product used for over 30 years in operations in more than 20 nations, is constantly evolving, as version 5 of this platform shows.

The vehicle offers a wide variety of unique capabilities such as modular protection and a large loading capacity, as well as a high-level of versatility for adding various weaponry systems. The PIRAñA 5 is a demonstration of its unprecedented superiority in survival, mobility and firing capacity for this kind of armoured vehicle. Its modular designs allows for quick adaptation to a great variety of roles - from troop carrier to electronic warfare, ambulance or forward observer.

Latest-generation ballistics laboratory

at the service of excellence

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y /g r o u n d s e c t o r

aving spent 63 years in the defence sector so far, INSTALAZA S.A. remains faithful to the commitment to deliver on its three cornerstones of safety, reliability and efficacy, as well as the vertical integration of its activity, which covers everything from product conception, viability checks, design and development through to industrialisation, authorisation and commercialisation.

Upholding this structure would be impossible if INSTALAZA S.A. did not have fully equipped laboratories, including a ballistics lab with the resources needed to perform all tests with real ammunition that will later allow the products to be submitted for official authorisation by the Ministry of Defence.

Part of the ongoing activity of the Research and Development Department includes three singular projects which will culminate in the next few years with the introduction

hof new products in the INSTALAZA, S.A. portfolio. These novelties are the C90-CS System, a new type of ammunition for the ALCOTAN-100 system, and the increased range of the VOSEL fire system for the ALCOTAN-100.

C90-CS Systems. As an addition to the extremely successful C90 family, which has various warheads

optimised for different infantry missions, now there is the CS (Confined Space) version which makes it possible to fire from inside very small closed spaces, especially handy for new combat scenarios with operations in urban or at least densely built-up areas.

This development, for which there is financial support from the Ministry of Defence in addition to the company’s own funds, allows us to expand the operation of the C90 system to practically all scenarios.

In keeping with the C90 philosophy, the C90-CS is a very lightweight disposable weapons / ammunitions system that is just as easy to use as the other C90s, with a day rangefinder similar to the one on all the C90s and a high first-shot hit probability.

Similarly, it will be possible to use the same VN38-C Night Vision device, also by INSTALAZA, which is regularly employed

the design and manufacture of a fire system capable of predicting the immediate route of the enemy tank by simultaneously measuring distances and angles travelled in under two seconds.

The VOSEL fire system eliminates the need for any type of estimation on the part of the marksman. The integrated computer directly shows the marksman the future point at which he should aim to hit the target seconds later, both at day and at night, as it incorporates Night Vision.

Secondly, it was equally as imperative to know the exact initial projectile speed,

with the C90 and has a dual optical system that can be used not just to fire the C90 but also for observation and surveillance up to 1,200 metres. And, of course, the same TR90 field training system.

This system will be configured with the same warheads that are already traditional for the C90, basically:

• Anti-tank: very high piercing capacity in armour-plating, around 500 mm in steel, able to pierce most combat tanks not protected with reactive armour (in this case, the ideal product is the ALCOTAN, explained below).

• Double-purpose: for use against armoured and anti-material tanks, combining a piercing capacity in steel of 300 mm with a shrapnel effect similar to that of similar calibre artillery ammunition.

• Anti-bunker : for use against defensive walls, including 250 mm thick reinforced concrete walls, creating a hole in the wall with a diameter large enough for a fragmentation warhead to pass through, similar to a hand grenade that explodes behind a protection wall, this being the military capacity needed to avoid having to approach a fortification to engage in combat with other means, as this C90 has a range of 450 metres.

ALCOTAN-100(M2)The ALCOTAN-100 system, the design of which involved the financial participation of INSTALAZA and the Spanish Ministry of Defence, has brilliantly solved the four essential problems its original design considered.

Firstly, to comply with impact probability requirements at 600 metres. This required

Thirdly, the anti-tank ammunition had to be capable of succeeding against combat tanks protected even with reactive armour. The configuration with two warheads in tandem with complementary effects and separate operating times delivers enough piercing of the principal armour once the reactive armour is taken out of the equation.

A fourth aspect to solve was that rocket propulsion could not be employed, as had been standard amongst bazookas and on the C90. To that end, INSTALAZA uses the principle of the Davis gun or counter mass weapon, making it possible to fire from closed spaces.

With the ALCOTAN-100 system now consolidated and also in service in other countries, the company is using its own funds and an enhanced use of its technological and industrial heritage for new developments. INSTALAZA is increasing the range of the VOSEL (M2) fire system, making it possible to fire against area targets at distances of more than 1,000 metres away. This feature will be very attractive for its use with current bivalent ammunition, due to its fragmentation effects, but even more significantly with a new

ammunition under development which is described below.

This is a new ammunition with a powerful fragmentation warhead which is programmed from the VOSEL firing control to detonate either on impact with the target or when it is flying over a target at distances of even more than 1,000 metres, a distance which has been exactly measured by the VOSEL itself. This application is very important to bring down far-off or disperse targets, or even ones protected behind walls, etc., which stop them from being seen and subsequently attacked directly.

>The VOSEL fire system eliminates the need for any type of estimation on the part of the marksman

measured in accordance with the temperature of the propellant at the time of fire and also make sure that it flew with no axial acceleration, in order to ensure that the wind didn’t throw it off-course during the few seconds it was in flight. The solution to the first of these requirements takes the form of a passive sensor which detects the propellant temperature and sends it to the computer for inclusion in the appropriate VOSEL Firing Table. The solution to the second is the addition of a cruise missile which compensates for aerodynamic braking and therefore keeps the projectile flight speed constant.

Light aerostructure manufacturing:

composite materials and the Additive

Manufacturing technologies revolution

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y /c o m p o s i t e s

lthough composite materials are generally considered to be a new concept in materials engineering, they are quite a lot older than society believes. There are numerous examples in nature which meet the principle of the combination of various different materials to achieve another one with the best properties of its ‘ingredients’. The wood from a tree or bones are examples of natural combinations between various materials present in the animal and plant world which have the basic principles of a composite material.

The former consists of the combination of cellulose fibres of great mechanical resistance and high flexibility in a lingnin matrix, while the latter is the combination of short, not very resistant collagen fibres in a mineral matrix. The use of adobe, a combination of plant fibres with great bending strength in a clay matrix, one of the first composite materials created by man, and the simple mixture of sand with cement

FADA-CATEC

aand stone to form concrete are two clear examples of the use of composite materials, in this case in the world of construction.

It was not until the 1960s that the advanced and developed use of modern composite materials became important, due to their high performance as alternatives to conventional materials.

Some of the earliest applications are found in industrial sectors like shipping and aerospace, energy and construction, fostered by the search for highly rigid materials which were at the same time much more lightweight than traditional ones. Their more extensive use is due to composite materials with a reinforced polymeric matrix, mainly fibreglass and carbon. The latter became popular because of the development of carbon fibre in the United Kingdom and other materials such as boron (very high resistance) in the United States. The most important properties of carbon fibre composites include their high mechanical resistance (comparable to steel), their formidable fatigue behaviour and, finally, their lightness, being considerably lighter even than light metal alloys such as aluminium ones.

That explains why the aerospace sector presents a great opportunity to use these types of materials, where aerostructure

of 10.6 million metric tonnes around the world, and the figures have been growing at an annual rate of some 6% in recent years. 2014 forecasts suggest a new rise, largely due to the increasing use of composite materials in new fields and sectors, but also the intensification of their use in others where they are already applied, such as the aircraft industry.

Spain has been one of the pioneers in composite industrialisation and has become a reference point for its development and use in the aviation sector. The Spanish industry decided to implement the use of composites in the A300 tail stabiliser back

weight is a key factor in making an aircraft. The introduction of composite materials in the military sector. For example, in the early 1970s, the composite content in F-15 fighter craft was 2% of the total mass, but the figure grew to 27% in just a decade, with the Boeing AV-8B. A slower evolution was recorded in civil aviation, where the A320 had a 10% mass content in the mid-1980s and there was a similar percentage in the A340 series (12%) in the early 2000s. It was not until 2006 that the use of composites shot up to around 25% in the A380, reaching more than 50% for the A350-900 XWB (Airbus) and the 787 Dreamliner (Boeing).

The latest forecasts from the aircraft industry speak to an annual growth of around 3.7% in the worldwide aircraft fleet. It is estimated that approximately 31,400 new craft will be required by the year 2033 to cover the needs of both the rise in passenger demand and the replacement of aircraft which will be put out of service. The composite materials market already posts turnover of €90 billion and a total

in the early 1970s. There is no question that this effort put Spain on the map from the start of composite materials.

Today our country has significant expertise and long-standing experience thanks to the work of a large number of companies, factories and research centres that specialise in this area. They include the Airbus Group and a number of its Spanish plants, such as the Bahía de Cádiz Centre, belonging to its affiliate Airbus Defence & Space and sited at El Puerto de Santa María (Cádiz), and the Composite Materials Centre in Illescas, in Toledo province. However, these activities truly began with

the former Construcciones Aeronáuticas CASA, today part of the European aircraft group. I must also mention the company’s high technological level to make space shuttle parts in carbon fibre because of the old CASA-ESPACIO (today Airbus Defence & Space).

There are also a further three major national references and aerostructure suppliers such as Aernnova, Alestis Aerospace and Aciturri, with a great many plants across the country and a significant international presence. Plus there are firms such as Sofitec, Carbures, Aeropoxy (part of the Andalusian aerospace cluster) among many others, assembly and tool manufacturers, suppliers of composite material manufacturing machinery like MTorres, inspection system developers and manufacturers, such as Tecnatom, and firms that specialise in structural tests, for example TEAMS in Andalusia. The big aircraft builders (not just Airbus, but also Boeing, Bombardier, Embraer, etc.) are increasingly committing to Spanish companies’ experience and know-how in composites and the new technologies being researched and developed in technology and research centres across the country. In this regard, it is also important to mention centres that research the manufacturing and tests of composite materials, such as FIDAMC, the Tecnalia Foundation and the CTA in the Basque country (among many others), and the role that Spanish universities have played.

The CATEC Advanced Centre for Aerospace Technologies has joined forces with the latter group in the past five years, supporting the aerospace industry by developing inspection and test technologies and supporting the manufacturing of composite materials. In collaboration with these trailblazing companies, numerous research projects have been developed that cover issues such as the viability and industrialisation of inspection technologies using non-contact methods, manufacturing

faults and defects analyses using computerised tomography, structural health monitoring, the development of inspection technologies using ultrasounds and wireless encoders, ageing and structure tests in composite materials, and the automation of aeronautical processes, among others.

Additive Manufacturing In addition to the various developments in composite materials, Spanish industry is beginning to support the development of additive manufacturing technology. This allows for drastic weight reductions in metal aerostructures using topological optimisation processes. Metal parts can be made around 60% lighter without sacrificing any of the performance of the original. Although topological optimisation processes have been used for decades, the appearance of a technology like AM represents a very favourable sphere for the implementation of these types of processes.

Its high flexibility in terms of geometries makes it possible to design parts with a high degree of functionalisation, designs that were previously infeasible using conventional manufacturing methods. The aircraft and space sector present great possibilities for the implementation of AM technology, delivering a major impact in terms of efficiency and, of course, economics in a part’s life cycle. In particular,

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y /c o m p o s i t e s

in the space industry the cost of a kilo of payload is put at around €20,000, so any reduction in mass represents a considerable benefit.

The process for certifying this technology in the aerospace sector has accelerated in the past year. Although currently applied to secondary structures, it is expected that the technology will also be certified in the near future for use in primary structures, in this case subject to mechanical fatigue. That is why numerous research projects are under development, led by cutting-edge companies and Tier 1 suppliers.

One case of application consists of the collaboration between FADA-CATEC and Airbus Defence & Space (formerly CASA-ESPACIO), who have been rolling out a research project since 2013 that focuses on applying this technology to space shuttle parts for the European Space Agency. It involves not just making and optimising individual parts but manufacturing a complete system, including its functional and mechanical evaluation. It also covers the development of non-destructive test technologies and manufacturing process monitoring strategies, material procurement and surface finish improvements, among others.

The outcome of rigorous R&D in

container platforms

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y /d e p l o y a b l e i n f r a s t r u c t u r e s

he use of container platforms for logistics solutions brought innumerable advantages to military deployments in areas of operation, enabling greater safety and traceability in transport, along with improvements in tent storage, faster assembly of warehouses and specialised fuel areas, bulk water for supply, treatment and subsequent distribution, and all the specialities of energy production, safety, healthcare and field kitchen systems, among others.

Of course it is important to also mention the improvement in user comfort, in different hygiene versions such as living spaces, toilets, showers and mess halls.

EMC ARPA

tAdditionally, the equipment’s service life was extended even though the nature of its use meant it had to be subjected to tough tests both in terms of wear during use and the atmospheric agents to which it must be exposed, as high quality materials are employed in its manufacturing, both in terms of structure and finishes.

A further step is achieved with expandable container solutions, products where ARPA rolls out a large part of its R&D within different spheres of application.

The principal benefit of these types of containers is that the end useful area of

the application doubles or even triples that of the container in transport, making it possible to achieve surfaces with expansive work areas where you can install highly advanced systems such as medical gas systems, telecommunications connections, air-conditioning systems, etc., for a multitude of both civil and military uses.

ARPA develops a number of systems on a container that make it possible to have different logistics solutions with an expanded work area so that, even though the sizes during transportation are those of an ISO 20’ container, once deployed you get 22 or 34 square metres of usable area.

Plus, all the elements needed to use them are transported and travel inside the container itself, without exceeding the standard dimensions, ensuring that the system is protected when it travels and facilitating its carriage using standardised methods.

ARPA expandable container solutions allow great leak tightness inside the living space, meaning they can be used in adverse weather conditions. This makes them particularly efficient for medical needs, such as use as a field surgery, intensive care ward, laboratory or sterilisation room, for which they also have a technical area inside them which includes all of the necessary technical facilities: medicinal gases, telecommunications and air-conditioning systems.

Comprising a sandwich panel and reinforced iron structure, they can have an air-conditioning system, windows, doors, electricity and water systems or a drainage system, providing for an infinity of logistics and sanitary applications.

These modules have been used, for example, to set up border control positions in the Dominican Republic.

They can also be attached at the sides, making it possible to create larger

Another important feature of ARPA’s expandable infrastructures is their assembly speed, as they can be ready to use in just a few minutes, and they include levelling systems so they can be set up on practically any terrain.

Both for their quality and versatility these systems have been incorporated in the equipment of, among others, the Spanish Army and the armies of Argentina and Chile in the ‘Cruz del Sur’ Combined Peace Force, with applications such as an Operations Room, Senior Staff Room, Hospitalisation Room, Telecommunications Centre and Command Post.

Side by Side systemA further solution ARPA has developed is the Side-by-Side system which makes it possible to join two or more ISO 20’ containers together and which is applied particularly to the successful field kitchen on the ARPA MC2 container.

The system’s efficacy, together with the great-quality finish and functioning of this kitchen, has seen its FFSS model be used by the United States Marine Corps, the Spanish Army and many others.

Another of the ARPA modular ranges is the modular containers that are stored and transported disassembled in 1/3 the container size, making them easy to stack and move.

infrastructures to create sleeping quarters, mess halls and field medical centres and hospitals. Plus, because they can be stacked double height, you can create modular accommodation areas of great quality and comfort.

By adding air-conditioning, lighting, sanitation facilities with toilets and showers, communal relaxation areas, offices and kitchens with a fridge, you can make a modular ensemble that is quick to install and which delivers maximum performance for troops in transit or at refugee camps.

Their modular nature allows for the creation of successive expansions of accommodation areas for thousands of people.

The combination of the different systems, i.e., expandable containers, the side-by-side system and ARPA modular systems and their related specialities satisfy any requirement our customers can have.

ARPA’s vocation is to create comprehensive and turnkey logistics solutions and to continue to work on its R&D areas to improve the systems, especially the efficacy of their operation under extreme weather conditions, and the ease of their deployment.

Duel simulators, a solution that

crosses borders

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y /s i m u l a t i o n

ECNOBIT is a is a high-tech engineering company which works principally in the Aeronautics, Defence, Space, Security, Telecommunications and Transport industries, all of which constantly demand ongoing technical innovation and updating in order that the new and innovative solutions which will meet their specific needs can be provided.

The company’s capacity to innovate and its commitment to key technologies for its principal activities – the design, development, manufacture, production and maintenance of systems and equipment – has led to it being the foremost supplier of in house technology on the Spanish market.

In the Simulation area, TECNOBIT currently offers a wide range of training solutions for different aeronautical, naval and terrestrial platforms. It develops all levels of simulators, from Teaching Programmes, Trainers, Simulations and Simulation Centres, up to the Duel Simulators which are the resources used by the Armed Forces for Teaching, Instructing, Training and Evaluating Personnel and Units. The importance of training, skilling-up and instruction is growing steadily, not only for the Armed Forces, but also for the civil sector. The availability of duel simulation and live

TECNOBIT

tsimulation has become the best alternative to traditional virtual simulators.

TECNOBIT covers all activities in a system’s life cycle, starting with system engineering, design and development, manufacture, testing and maintenance, adapting to the customer’s specific needs, with special attention on the requirements of the sought training level.

The technologies are similar with regards system engineering, manufacture, testing and maintenance, regardless of the division’s

products. Where there are differences, and true specialisation, is the design and development, which has evolved with the use of commercial off-the-shelf, or COTS, elements.

Previously, the visuals, instructor positions and simulation models were designed and implemented from scratch, but diverse third-party tools and software are used today, either commercial or free software or even software provided by the Ministry of Defence, such as the SIGMIL military geographic information system or the HLA high level architecture layer.

Our SIMACA Field Artillery Simulator is currently undergoing modernisation and has been up and running at the Segovia Artillery Academy since 2002. It is a simulator targeted at training and assessing various positions in the Spanish Land Army’s Field Artillery Groups and exercises all of the regulatory procedures related to firing techniques. This makes it the most suitable tool for instruction and training, since it provides a virtual representation of the Field Artillery resources used and also the situations arising from operating and using these weapons.

Derived from SIMACA is one of the most important successes that TECNOBIT has

And within the world of aeronautics, TECNOBIT never forgets its strong link with Spanish aeronautics and particularly EADS-CASA, today part of Airbus Defence and Space, with equipment in aircraft such as the C295, CN235, C212 and C101.

In addition to purely avionics systems, this TECNOBIT division has also taken a further step in its diversification by starting to produce structures for onboard

achieved in recent years, the awarding of a contract from the Brazilian Army to supply two Fire Support Simulation (SAFO) Centres. A key factor in winning the contract was the important cost-saving involved with the use of this simulator. Studies carried out by the Brazilian Army estimated that the saving on ammunition by using SAFO would be around $20 million. SAFO will probably be the most advanced military simulation centre in Latin America, not only for its capacity but also its conception.

It has an open and modular architecture that facilitates future expansion, obsolescence management in terms of hardware and software alike, which optimises its service life, and the reuse of some of its parts and components to develop other simulators, e.g., for driving vehicles. Another very significant feature is that its development is fully based on free software, including the visual system, eliminating the dependency on licences, the obsolescence management of which can cause problems.

Finally, its conception is also grounded on future integration with other simulators, using the HLA standard among other capacities. For all those reasons, SAFO is not just a simulation centre but a whole environment, a basis on which to roll out the military simulation strategy for training, teaching and doctrine with an Army’s different military units.

Avionics and Secure CommunicationsTo talk about Avionics at TECNOBIT is to talk about the main pillar on which the company has been growing and solidly establishing its name, seeking participation in major Spanish and European programmes to be able to offer aviation electronics to the market both in terms of its own products, developed from the very initial phase, and those developed by other companies and subsequently produced by TECNOBIT.

This Spanish company is present in major European aeronautical programmes such

information to guarantee the confidentiality of communications.

In the area of tactical link communications, of note is the LINPRO system, a Multi Link Processor supplied to various Armed Forces and the only one capable of working indistinctly and concurrently on L11, L16, L22 and JRE.

In the area of encrypted communications, TECNOBIT develops generation, storage and code distribution hardware which has been certified by the Spanish Ministry of Defence’s National Cryptology Centre (CCN). Other products include the SCIP encrypting systems on Iridium links, which

It is also important to recall the effort to cover the entire product life cycle, such as that of the Audio Management System simulator for the A400M aircraft, a system which in turn was fully developed by TECNOBIT.

In the area of secure communications, almost since the time it began, nearly 30 years ago, TECNOBIT has been strongly linked to communications protection, starting with the implementation of equipment for encrypting teleprinters in the Spanish Navy’s ships in the early 1980s and, since then, working on different systems that enable the secure exchange of

This solution has made a significant contribution to improving the safety of Peace Mission troops in Afghanistan, as communications were formerly being intercepted on a regular basis.

Also of note is the new version of the TMSDEF (Defence Secure Mobile Terminal), based on the Tutus Färist product family approved and certified by the EU, and the TMSDEF certified and approved for NATO Restricted, the new functionalities of which enable encrypted voice with a Secure Communications Interoperability Protocol (SCIP), mail, web browsing and applications permitted on the telephone itself.

The global air surveillance and control market

> s p a n i s h t e c h n o l o g y / I C Ts

ompeting on the defence systems and airspace management market is within the reach of very few companies. It is essential to have a global business size and proven technological capacity in the civil and defence spheres alike. Indra is one of the multinationals that form part of this exclusive club, as has been demonstrated this past year with contracts such as the one to supply deployable air-traffic management systems to the Australian Air Force and the implementation of the air defence system of Oman, among others.

Controlling the airspace is an essential part of a country’s sovereignty, just as important as land borders and jurisdictional waters. This control, like the other two mentioned, presents the dual aspects of lawful transit and its safeguarding, i.e., air traffic control and the air defence component.

Airspace regulation is a transnational matter which exceeds the unilateral

INDRA

cdecisions that a particular country can take within the exercise of its sovereignty, having to adapt to a regulatory framework which guarantees efficient and safe management of air traffic and involves the maximum level of stringency regarding the technologies used, as well as the companies

that supply and develop them. This point guarantees the robustness of sector companies and is also a strong barrier to the entrance of new players.In the defence component, the level of stringency is even more important because of the confluence of the lack of cooperation inherent to unlawful flights and the consequences of any defensive action, which involves various cycles of confirmation before being undertaken.

Civil and defence technologyIn this sector, the list of companies recognised at a global level is quite small and stable and, to a certain extent, immune to the vagaries that affect other areas of information technologies. Indra, with a renowned top-level offering in both the civil segment of air traffic control, with the implementation of systems on the five continents, and the air defence segment, with solid references in the NATO and non-NATO environment, has the ideal

which derive from the two worlds

Similarly, the growing international implementation of Spanish companies means that progressively more operations can be managed with a strong local component with regards the end customer, bringing them the value of a close approach, accessibility, understanding of the scenario and even the culture. In this regard, the competitive positioning of companies that are expanding internationally is also taking on growing importance.

profile to obtain maximum benefit from the synergies which derive from the two worlds: radar detectors, command and control and communications.Today, and in the area that concerns us, as well as the abovementioned technical competence, it is necessary to add proven export capacity in a segment where a company must compete in a global world. Together with Indra, a small club of no more than four of the leading multinational defence companies regularly compete in the main international tenders.

Other factors play an important role in this export effort, such as local implementation and institutional backing. Training is therefore needed to play the game in accordance with these rules and to break onto the international market protected by a solid institutional coverage which usually turns out to be the sole guarantee of being able to compete under equal conditions. The perception of this reality has taken hold in our institutions in an increasingly obvious fashion in recent years, with their presence becoming a rising value via embassies and support for the commercial action of the country’s companies in their role of launch customer and reference user.

< Mobile Radar Lanza 3D. >

Two recent success stories: Australia and OmanIndra has had notable success in recent years both in the world of air traffic control and air defence, and most of them have been preceded by some of the destabilising factors mentioned, in addition to the technical competence which is taken for granted. In both disciplines, the national customer as a reference customer and explicit institutional backing in this regard have been key factors in the majority of the competitive processes.

Equally, one-third of the world’s airspace today is in one way or another controlled by systems deployed by Indra, an expansion that goes hand-in-hand with the expansion of the company itself in its implementation in different geographical areas where its systems are operating.

The most recent example is Australia. Indra will supply three deployable air traffic management systems to the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). The systems will allow the RAAF’s Joint Battlefield Airspace Controller (JBAC) teams to have a top-level air surveillance capacity of the air space and traffic control, adapted to a highly mobile and deployable environment. The delivery of these systems forms the basis of a contract signed between the Defence Materiel Organisation and Indra for a total amount of $AUS50 million.

2015_Spain/51

Central element: tactical LANzA-3D radarCentral to the system is Indra’s tactical LANZA-3D radar, a dual-purpose 3D L-Band primary surveillance radar. The system complies with International Civil Aviation Organisation regulations while also offering the advantages of a full 3D military radar capable of enhanced electronic counter-counter measures for the highest survivability. The LANZA radar is complemented with the latest generation dual-use monopulse identify friend-foe/secondary surveillance radar offering full Mode S, Mode 4 and Mode 5 aircraft identification, as well as built-in ADS-B. The radar is integrated with Indra’s AirCon 2100 automation system, providing air force controllers with high-end ATM automation for approach/terminal functionality.

The solution uses advanced algorithms for multirradar tracking, 4D trajectory management (3 dimensions + time), electronic flight strips, OIDC handover, display of recognised situational awareness information and recording playback. Indra’s fully interoperable ATM automation is a world leader with proven service supporting more than 8 million IFR controlled flights annually and used by more than 5,000 air traffic control officers worldwide.

The radars are coupled with this airspace management capability into a flexible and scalable operations support segment encompassing integrated ground/air communications and standard and expandable shelters, which provide the operational space conducive to long deployments in demanding operational theatres and harsh environments

This technology offers the Australian Defence Force a quantum-leap in safety and efficiency for the dual use control and management of air traffic in deployed environments. It will assist this force in managing airspace within Australian or overseas, in humanitarian assistance and disaster relief missions, either when operating independently or integrated with allies.

The combination of mobility, modularity, performance and world leading technology ensures that these systems will be at the

forefront of worldwide deployable air management capability for decades to come.

In an associated and indissoluble manner to this new contract, Indra will boost its workforce in Australia, a country where it has had its headquarters in Sydney and offices in Newcastle since winning a contract to provide its tactical communications systems to the RAAF air controllers since 2012. Indra’s implementation in the country did not, however, begin with defence contracts, but rather in the civil market,

where the company is deploying a radar network that covers the eastern area of the country to assist en-route air traffic and is the largest supplier of radio navigation systems for Airservices, the Australian navigation service provider.

Following a similar model, the company also has a strong position in the Military & Civil Air Traffic Management market throughout the region, with solutions deployed in Oman, where this year it won an important contract to deploy an air defence system

based on its Lanzar radar, as well as in Indonesia, China, Mongolia, Vietnam, Philippines and India, among other countries. This expansion confirms the validity of an export model which has already made Indra a reference point within other areas in the same supply segments, such as Latin America, where it is the market leader.

A400M: the most versatile airlifterThe A400M is the most versatile airlifter currently available responding to the most varied needs of world Air Forces and other organisations in the 21st century. It can perform three very different types of duties: it is able to perform both tactical

missions directly to the point of need and long range strategic/logistic ones. And it can also serve as an air-to-air refuelling “tanker”. Powered by four unique counter-rotating Europrop International (EPI) TP400 turboprop powerplants, the A400M offers a wide flight envelope in terms of both speed and altitude. It is the ideal airlifter to fulfil the most varied requirements of any nation around the globe in terms of military, humanitarian and any other “civic” mission for the benefit of society.

The A400M was launched in 2003 to respond to the combined needs of seven European Nations regrouped within OCCAR (Belgium, France, Germany, Luxemburg, Spain, Turkey and the UK), with Malaysia joining in 2005. This is one of the major reasons for its extreme versatility. Its maiden flight took place on 11th December 2009.

Light and medium transport aircraft Airbus Defence and Space is the only supplier of transport aircraft to produce a comprehensive range of airlifters offering payloads from three to 45 tonnes. In the light and medium tactical segment it is the world-leader through its family of three models –the C212, CN235 and C295– offering from three to nine tonnes of payload.

The operational qualities built into the aircraft make them not only the most capable machines for typical military missions, but also give them the

It is based in monitoring services, hacking, response to incidents and forensic analysis. • Intelligence: security incident prevention based on a proactive approach of

system review and external services. • Compliance: services to validate and ensure the regulatory and normative compliance of organizations. From the initial phases of the GAP analysis and the compliance plan, through the accompanying and implementation of measures, to the official certification. • Critical infrastructure protection: support to the industrial organizations that apply cyber security services, not only in their external networks, but also in their industrial control systems and SCADA systems. • Cyber security strategic plans: performing security management plans for companies, critical infrastructures, industries, countries and regions.

everis Aerospace and Defense supports their capabilities in the security industry,

simulation tools provide (cost reduction, reduce loss of lives, simulation of not replicable situations) encourages everis Aerospace and Defense to continue investing in this field.

The current product catalogue, including car simulators, heavy-duty vehicles as well as industrial and military machinery, is continuously expanding with new designs and developments. Among the simulators available in upcoming dates, a motorcycle simulator, a truck and bus premium simulator and a new series of sea simulators to be developed are found.

In addition it obtains information contained in the media files by applying diverse analyzers, documenting all results for is posterior exploitation. • HERTA offers the most advanced solution in facial recognition, for video surveillance as for forensic analysis.

Exploiting the capabilities in the latest GPU processing technologies, our products detect multiple faces in real time. Suitable solutions for crowded surroundings, video massive and high velocity processing.

• SIMULATION

The simulation area is the one showing most growth expectations. Throughout the year, everis involvement in Simmer was finishing, turning this into its simulation brand. The manufacture of the first simulator phase, in the Toro industrial plant in Segovia, has been completed to provide the Brazilian market of driving schools.

The wide range of advantages that formation and training through

In addition, the alliance with key companies in the simulation and training industries allows everis expand its catalogue with products, as the welding simulator and the tactic-shooting simulator.

However, hardware sale does not set everis/Simumak apart, but the use of simulators for training service rendering. A typical project model usually includes the creation of a simulator adapted to the specific needs of a requested training. In addition, a training integrated model that includes simulator use can perform this type of service rendering. This differential approach allows clients to use the simulators with their associated advantages without representing a considerable investment.

• Contact: Fernando Horcada, Business Development for SENER’s Aerospace Business Unit

SENER is an engineering and technology group founded in 1956 that is known worldwide for providing excellent projects and innovative solutions. In defense, SENER carries out engineering, production and integration of mechatronics, actuation and control systems for missiles and precision electrical mechanisms; GNC systems, especially semi-active laser systems; optical systems (ISR-related technology). In addition, it produces and maintains its own complete series of the product throughout its entire life cycle. It also provides systems integration in aircraft and vehicles as well as updates and extension of their operational life.

Some of its major clients are the Spanish Ministry of Defense; the Spanish Navy; the Spanish Air Force; the Spanish Civil Guard; and the companies MBDA, Diehl

BGT Defense, TAURUS Systems GmbH, Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace, Saab Dynamics, Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems /HDW, BAE Systems and Navantia.

In control and actuation systems, SENER is today European center of excellence in design, development, production, integration, testing and logistics support, with over 25 years of experience. In fact, its ability to address multidisciplinary projects enables it to lead and

collaborate in defense programs involving integrated systems.

One of the main references in this field is the missile IRIS-T in both its air-to-air (AA) and air defense (Surface Launch, SL) versions, in which SENER is the design authority and only supplier of the control and actuation sections (CAS) for the German Dielh. SENER is also responsible for the redesign production and delivery of the Meteor missile FAS (Fin Actuation System) for MBDA. Regarding the cruise missile TAURUS KEPD 350, SENER manufactures the control series units of the fin actuation subsystem (FASS). In this program, SENER has signed an agreement with South Korea to suply 179 missile actuator subsystem units to the air force. Likewise, SENER has produced and delivered the actuation and control

system for the NSM (Naval Strike Missile) developed by the company Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace. Finally, SENER also participates with the company Saab Dynamics in its RBS 70 NG system as design authority and sole supplier of the stabilized mirror unit (SMU).

In ISR (intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance) SENER has devised SAGEOS, a very high performanced electro-optical sensor platform. Furthermore, it has developed and supplied solutions for the image and video signal treatment and processing, especially for recognition systems used in different countries for several aircraft fleets. It has also implemented COMINT (communications intelligence) and SIGINT (signals intelligence) solutions.

In defense systems integration, SENER, as the prime contractor of the TAURUS missile for Spain, had an important participation

Finally, in the military naval field, SENER has a CAD/CAM system, FORAN, for the design and production of ships and offshore devices which has been selected by clients like Navantia shipyards, BAE Systems, ASMAR in Chile, Severnoye in Russia or the Brazilian Navy to design military ships. Among them is worth mentioning BAE Systems’ HMS Queen Elizabeth, the aircraft carrier for the Royal Navy, and the submarine series Successor, which is the largest engineering project in Europe for the last decade.

In addition, SENER has signed an industrial agreement with HDW for the production of an air independent propulsion (AIP) system for submarines based on a methanol reformer. SENER is responsible for developing, among others, the CO

2 subsystem capable of dissolving gases in seawater silently and without any influence on the signature of the submarine in terms of noise and bubbles.

in the integration of the cruise missile in the EF-18 as well as in the support to the Spanish Air Force in the achievement of the initial operational capability (IOC) of this system, including production of auxiliary equipment and support at the initial test firing campaign conducted in South Africa. Currently, SENER continues to collaborate with the Spanish Air Force in life cycle support for this missile.

In aeronautics and vehicles, the company is carrying out a modernization program of the Augusta Bell 212 (AB212) helicopters of the Spanish Navy that will extend their operational life at least fifteen years, and that will incorporate latest generation avionics and systems, which will considerably improve their operational capabilities. Likewise, it has also developed vehicle solutions for defense applications such as the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) program for combat vehicles operating in desert environments.
