Medida decisiva para a manutenção da capacidade Aeromóvel do Exército Brasileiro.

The Brazilian Army 🇧🇷 has approved the start of development for the #Ambulance and #Command #Post versions of the 6X6 #Guarani armored platform, with prototypes expected to be presented next year. The next version to be approved should be the #AntiAircraft version. Check the planning for all proposed versions of the #Guarani in…” #Brazil🇧🇷 #MilitaryIndustry

#Argentina🇦🇷 The #Argentine 🪖#Army has pushed forward various initiatives in successive acquisition plans that never received the necessary support to progress beyond the signing of Letters of Intent. One of these initiatives, which is gaining increasing attention, is the incorporation of a family of Wheeled Armored Combat Vehicles (#WACV), which could translate into the most significant equipment purchase for this force in decades. Presumably, since the last combat vehicles of the #TAM family rolled off the production line. Following plans disclosed by various sources in previous years, the original requirement of the Argentine Army is the acquisition of 209 armored vehicles in various configurations and functions. To date, multiple proposals from regional and other international suppliers have been considered. Despite the signing of the Letter of Intent for the 6×6 #Guarani WACVs, the #Brazilian option has been sidelined in favor of others put forward by the #United States and #Canada, which offer the M1126 #Stryker family in the first place and the #LAV III family as second-hand options from the stocks of the #U.S.Army and #NewZealand.

Os AH-6 são helicópteros leves de ataque dos EUA. No Exército Brasileiro temos os Helibras FENNEC com lança foguetes Avibras SKYFIRE, enquanto na Marinha do Brasil (Oficial), o Helibras Esquilo, mesma plataforma dos FENNEC, foram praticamente desarmados, já que os foguetes SBAT-70 estão obsoletos. Também não se tem notícias de outras plataformas leves com armamento axial na MB. Por quê? A MB mudou sua doutrina? Essas armas não seriam mais necessárias nas operações ribeirinhas e apoio de fogo aos Fuzileiros Navais? Com a palavra o Centro de Desenvolvimento Doutrinário de Guerra Naval e o Comando do Desenvolvimento Doutrinário do CFN.

Edited ByEmma Yates-Badley October 8, 2024, 16:56 (UTC +3) France plans to deliver French-made Mirage 2000 fighter jets to Ukraine by the first half of 2025, Minister of the Armed Forces, Sébastien Lecornu said in a post on X on October 8, 2024.  On June 6, 2024, French President Emmanuel Macron stated that France would send Mirage-2000 jets to Ukraine and provide training for Ukrainian pilots as part of a new military cooperation program with Kyiv.   The French are improving their fighters to make them more suitable for the war in Ukraine, Lecornu added. The Mirage 2000s was initially built for air-to-air fighting. However, the minister added that the fighter aircraft will receive new equipment at Cazaux in Gironde.  “It is a question of equipping them with air-to-ground combat capabilities. And to strengthen their electronic warfare system,” Lecornu said in an interview with Sud Ouest, published late on October 7, 2024.  One of the main modifications will likely include the capability for the single-seat fighter to launch SCALP-EG/Storm Shadow cruise missiles. These missiles have been supplied to Ukraine by both France and the United Kingdom. Although these missiles are typically deployed from a twin-seat version of the aircraft, the single-seat Mirage 2000-9 developed for the United Arab Emirates is capable of using these weapons.  The Mirage 2000 is a French fighter jet with a single engine, made by Dassault Aviation. It can fly nearly 1,000 miles using just its internal fuel. Additionally, it can carry external fuel tanks that increase its combat range significantly.  The Dassault aircraft will be the second western fighter jet used by Ukraine’s military. According to Lecornu, the training of Ukrainian pilots and mechanics is ongoing.  Since early August 2024, Ukrainian pilots have been operating General Dynamics F-16 fighter jets supplied by European nations, including the Netherlands and Denmark.   Mirage 2000 à destination de l’Ukraine : livraison toujours prévue au 1er trimestre 2025.

The Brazilian Army 🇧🇷 and #IVECO DEFENCE VEHICLES signed a contract today for the development and production of prototypes for the #Ambulance 🚑and #CommandPost 🪖versions of the #Guarani. https://lnkd.in/gZNh3iVB

Nesta segunda-feira, 08/04/2024, na Baía de Eliat, aconteceu o 1º combate do sistema C-DOME –versão naval do Iron Dome–, montado numa corveta da classe Sa'ar 6, de Israel. O sistema destruiu um VANT suicida, lançado numa ação de guerra assimétrica aeronaval dos Houthis. Fabricado pela Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, o C-DOME é a tentativa de Israel para proporcionar proteção aérea hemisférica em torno de seus navios. Cada míssil interceptador custa U$ 50.000 e são lançadas 2 unidades para cada alvo. A solução funcionou contra um alvo. Como será a performance sob ataque de saturação? Conseguirá repelir um ataque combinado de VANTs (suicidas ou inertes), mísseis balísticos anti-navio e mísseis de cruzeiro? Terá sido um teste orientado pelo Irã, com objetivo de coletar dados sobre a prontidão e cobertura das defesas antiaéreas da marinha israelense?

Today is a historical day for Embraer Defense & Security. With the signature of the acquisition contract, The Netherlands and Austria now accelerate their path towards introducing the C-390 Millennium and significantly enhancing their airlift capabilities. #C390 #Millennium

A independência entre as forças armadas dos EUA na adoção de recursos tecnológicos que salvam vidas pode levar a equívocos operacionais. É o caso da US Navy, que por questões financeiras não adota o Automatic Ground Collision Avoidance System (Auto GCAS, em português, Sistema Automatizado para Evitar Colisões contra o Solo. Saiba mais aqui https://lnkd.in/dcueQbuu), um recurso presente em todos os aviões de caça e ataque ao solo da US Air Force, incluindo os A-10, F-16, F-15, F-22 e, desde 2019, também é parte do software do F-35A. O acidente com o EA-18 Growler, que matou as aviadoras Tenente-Comandante Lyndsay Evans e Tenente Serena Wileman (aqui https://lnkd.in/deNHRqz3) poderia ter sido evitado. O sistema ao detectar aproximação perigosa do solo, assume o controle da aeronave, devolvendo o comando aos pilotos quando atingir altitude segura e condição de voo estável. Os pilotos da marinha dos EUA seguem solicitando a inclusão do software nos FA-18 Super Hornet, EA-18 Growler e, sobretudo, no altamente tecnológico F-35C (e nos F-35B, dos US Marines). Por conta da ausência do sistema de colisão com o solo, entre os anos 2000 e 2019, a US Navy perdeu 15 aviões e 13 pilotos. Já a US Air Force, que adotou o Auto GCAS desde 2014, conseguiu salvar 11 aeronaves e 12 pilotos nos últimos 10 anos. A propósito, os Gripen JAS 39 da FAB (F-39) são equipados com Auto GCAS.
