SELEX Galileo to boost its partnerships with Asia at DSA
2010
9 April 2010 - SELEX Galileo, a Finmeccanica company, is looking
to strengthen its presence in Asia at the Defence Services Asia
(DSA) Exhibition and Conference 2010, an important procurement hub
for defence and security in Malaysia and the Asia Pacific region.
The Company will be pursuing opportunities relating to the building
of an organic maritime patrol and reconnaissance capability as well
as responding to the region's significant Unmanned Aerial System
(UAS) requirements.
SELEX Galileo is already involved with a series of upcoming
requirements in Malaysia to enhance the Country’s Surveillance,
Protection and Land & Battlespace capabilities. SELEX Galileo’s
range of systems can offer significant improvements to situational
awareness and can enhance the security of front-line troops. The
Company is aiming to deliver the latest technology into the country
to meet the upgrade needs of the Malaysian Navy, Air Force, Army
and Police Force.
SELEX Galileo understands the need for
Malaysia to better patrol the Malacca Straits against piracy and
smuggling and will be promoting systems that can boost capabilities
in this area such as the ATOS (Airborne Tactical Observation and
Surveillance) system complemented by SELEX Galileo’s range of EO
and Radar sensors. SELEX Galileo will be looking to promote its
robust and ready-foroperation FALCO tactical Unmanned Aerial System
(UAS). For indigenous Malaysian UAS, SELEX Galileo will be offering
the smaller, lighter PicoSAR AESA radar, which provides an
unrivalled all weather capability.
In the Training and Simulation area,
SELEX Galileo is working on different opportunities also with the
involvement of local Companies on Firefighting Simulators, UAV
BattleLab and Full Mission Simulators.
In the Land, EO & Battlespace
sector, SELEX Galileo is promoting the Future Soldier Individual
Combat Fire Control and Observation System for the Malaysian Army
Commando forces and Malaysian Police. The Future Soldier System
increases lethality and situational awareness in a continuously
changing battlefield. For the Malaysian Army’s Wheeled Vehicle
programme, the Company will be promoting a variety of systems
including the Drivers Night Vision System (DNVS), designed to
enhance the night-time operability of an Armoured Fighting
Vehicle.
SELEX Galileo’s world-leading
Electronic Warfare (EW) offering is also showcased and the Company
will be promoting SEER, a next-generation Radar Warning Receiver
(RWR) that improves the survivability of modern fighter aircraft.
SEER can identify and prioritise RF signals in a hostile threat
environment, helping fixed-wing aircraft evade danger and
heightening the probability of mission success.
SELEX Galileo will be present at DSA
on Finmeccanica’s stand (Hall 4, Stand 4102).
