The 105 mm Nash-Shab (RPG-32) rocket launcher is attracting interest from potential customers less than a year after the start of production, according to Shadi Majali, the CEO of the King Abdullah II Design and Development Bureau (KAADB).
Majali told IHS Jane's that two Arab Gulf states and some North African countries had expressed interest in purchasing the Nash-Shab, while the Pakistani military has tested the system in Jordan pending a procurement decision.
The Nash-Shab project is a joint venture by KAADB and Russia's state arms export agency, Rosoboronexport. The Jadara Equipment & Defence Systems Company (JRESCO), a KADDB subsidiary, began producing the system from parts supplied by Rosoboronexport in May 2013.

UAE Naval Firms Seek Regional Sales
DUBAI — Having honed their skills on homegrown contracts, United Arab Emirates shipyards are seeking sales from their Arabian Gulf neighbors. Over the past five years, the UAE has become the gulf’s leading hub for naval shipbuilding, as well as the maintenance, repair and overhaul of warships. Two of the biggest reasons are Abu Dhabi Ship Building (ADSB) and Etihad Ship Building (ESB), said Matthew Hedges, military analyst for the Institute for Near East and Gulf Military Analysis (INEGMA), based here. “The UAE naval industry is a leading player in the region, with ADSB and Etihad Shipbuilding contributing a large amount to indigenous capabilities,” he said. “Other [Gulf Cooperation Council] countries can’t match the UAE capabilities.” Another growing company is Al Seer Marine, which is becoming known for its unmanned surface vehicles. Now the companies are touting their wares to neighboring countries. Potential regional customers for ADSB’s flagship Baynunah corvette include the Saudi Navy, which has embarked on a US $20 billion expansion program and is said to be considering the purchase of up to a dozen new warships. ADSB also hopes for more sales to Kuwait. In February 2013, ADSB signed contracts to supply the Kuwaiti Navy with two 64-meter landing craft, one 42-meter landing craft and five 16-meter composite fast landing craft. Established in 1996, ADSB initially focused on naval repairs and refits, then expanded to build sophisticated warships. Today, it handles the construction, repair and refit of naval, military and commercial vessels, and has an order book that tops $1 billion. “Through partnerships with international players, the UAE has been able to construct some of the world’s most advanced ships, with the marquee product being the Baynunah-class corvette,” Hedges said. The UAE launched the Baynunah class with a January 2004 order for a new class of multipurpose missile corvette. Two of six under contract have been delivered, the latest in February. The 70-meter vessels were designed in collaboration with Constructions Mecaniques de Normandie (CMN) of Cherbourg, France, as a derivative of CMN’s BR70 70-meter corvette design. The Baynunahs will mainly be used for patrol and surveillance, minelaying, interception and other anti-surface warfare operations in territorial waters and exclusive economic zones. The vessels are to be the world’s largest steel-hulled vessels that use waterjets for propulsion. Built on a deep-V hard-chine hull, the corvette has a shallow draft and a stealthy superstructure, a helicopter landing deck and a hangar. It accommodates a crew of 55. Etihad's Programs Etihad Ship Building — established in 2010 as a joint venture between Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri, Al Fattan Shipyard and Melara Middle East — also is looking to build on a successful 2013. “On different fronts, Fincantieri and Etihad Ship Building have started negotiations with different gulf countries, including Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Iraq,” said Achille Fulfaro, ESB’s general manager. “For Qatar, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia in 2014, the negotiations will start and we will go in to deep analysis of their requirements, and we hope to create the conditions for production.” “We expect also to start negotiations [with the UAE Navy] on a new Abu Dhabi class, for a more developed new ship in that class,” he said. Fulfaro said ESB will base its services and production at its facilities in Abu Dhabi. “We consider Etihad Ship Building as the lead in the gulf region, so we are making the relevant investments to be ready to produce more vessels in 2014,” he said. But Fulfaro said his company is open to discussing new joint ventures or other work-sharing conditions. Last year, ESB delivered two Falaj-class stealth offshore patrol vessels and an Abu Dhabi-class stealth corvette to the UAE Navy. It also won a €100 million (US $138 million) contract for services, logistics and maintenance of combatant vessels in the UAE, Fulfaro said. Last year, the company signed a contract with the Iraqi Navy as well for the maintenance of four patrol vessels at ESB. “We signed the services contract, and Fincantieri delivered the first Falaj-class and Abu Dhabi-class vessels within the right timeframe and budget,” he said. “The trials phase has been completed with the complete satisfaction of the client, and now we expect to close negotiations on further Falaj- and Abu Dhabi-class vessels” for the UAE Navy. The negotiations on the Falaj program are expected to be completed quickly, he said. Among ESB’s products is the Falaj-class patrol vessel. Based on the Italian Coast Guard’s Diciotti class, it can handle a variety of missions, including patrol, surveillance, and land and surface attacks. It is also equipped to fight off air and surface weapons. Another is the Abu Dhabi-class corvette, based on the design of the Italian Navy’s four Commandante-class vessels. The Abu Dhabis are 88 meters long and displace 1,650 tons. To be crewed by about 70, each vessel can reach 25 knots, or deliver a range of more than 3,000 nautical miles at 14 knots. Weapons on the corvette include two 30mm Marlin weapons stations and a 76mm naval gun. Unmanned Surface Vessels Hedges, the INEGMA analyst, said Al Seer Marine has drawn international recognition for its three types of unmanned surface vessels (USVs). Useful for ISR, border protection and port security, the first are expected to deploy in UAE ports this year, he said. “There is a potential in the future to arm them to protect offshore rigs and illegal smuggling,” he said. The three variants are called Sea Serpent, Oscar and Bravo. Sea Serpent is a 3-meter, 320-kilogram vessel about the size of a large jet ski. It has a maximum speed of 50 knots and operates on one petrol engine. Used for security around VIP yachts, they also were designed for harbor surveillance and port security. Bravo is a rigid inflatable boat based on the Finnish-built Boomeranger that can be operated either as a remote or a piloted boat. Oscar, an 11-meter, 6,500-kilogram boat that runs on two 500-horsepower diesel engines with water jet propulsion, is used for security patrols and is equipped with computers, sensors and software to detect and process data. “The boats are remote-controlled through a command-and-control station, which is on land or a mother ship at sea, and are fitted with some of the most advanced robotics and surveillance equipment,” Matthew Tracy, Al Seer Marine’s USV project manager, told local media. “Three or four boats can be controlled and used by two operators at once instead of using between 12 and 16 crew,” Tracy said. If fitted with satellite communications gear, he said, the boats can be controlled from anywhere in the world.
Jeudi 27 mars, les forces armées du Qatar et Thales ont signé un protocole d'accord afin de développer un appareil optionnellement piloté. L'appareil sera un système hybride entre un aéronef conventionnel et un drone, lui permettant de voler avec ou sans pilote. Le programme, mené par la division britannique de Thales, est baptisé OPV-A (Optionnally Piloted Vehicle - Aircraft).
Ce nouvel aéronef sera destiné à mener des missions ISTAR (renseignement, surveillance, acquisition d'objectifs et reconnaissance). Thales a annoncé que l'appareil sera à même de d'opérer dans des conditions particulièrement critiques ainsi que dans le cadre de missions nécessitant une grande autonomie.
Le protocole d'accord signé comprend le développement de ce système ainsi que la fourniture d'une solution de formation complète sur l'aéronef.

Details of new UAE Coast Guard vessels emerge
The two new offshore patrol ships that will be built for the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Critical Infrastructure and Coastal Protection Authority (CICPA) are set to be a special breed, it is starting to emerge.
Abu Dhabi Ship Building (ADSB) announced it was about to sign an AED1 billion (USD272 million) contract to build two naval vessels in December 2013. While it provided no further details at that time, ADSB previously told IHS Jane's that it was close to signing a deal for a pair of 70 m patrol vessels for the coastguard, which is part of the CICPA, and indicated they would be based on Damen's Sea Axe hull form that has been proven on fast crew supply boats and super yacht support vessels in recent years.

Scale model of the KADDB Almared 8x8 in armoured personnel carrier configuration without armament installed. Source: Christopher F Foss
Jordan's King Abdullah II Design and Development Bureau (KADDB) is currently testing its first 8x8 armoured fighting vehicle (AFV).
The Almared is based on a Tatra 8x8 high-mobility cross-country chassis and features an all-welded steel armoured body that is claimed to provide ballistic protection of up to STANAG 4569 Level 4, but with an upgrade can achieve Level 5.
The lower half has a traditional V-shape to provide a higher level of protection against mines and improvised explosive devices (IED).
The overall layout is conventional with the diesel powerpack at the front right and the driver front left, which leaves the remainder of the vehicle free for its mission. In addition to the commander and driver the vehicle can carry eight dismounts.
The first version is in the armoured personnel carrier (APC) configuration.
Dismounts are seated in the rear, which has a power-operated ramp in the back of the hull. In either side of the rear troop compartment are four oblong vision blocks with integrated firing ports.
Over the roof of the troop compartment are two hatches either side that can be locked in the vertical position.
Located on either side and above the second, third and fourth road wheel stations are stowage lockers which would be blown away in the event of the vehicle running over a mine or IED.
The commander is provided with a cupola with periscopes but the vehicle could be fitted with a remote weapon station (RWS) armed with a .50 calibre M2 HB machine gun (MG) or the locally developed Snake Head cupola armed with a similar weapon.
Almared is powered by a 420 hp diesel engine coupled to a fully automatic six-speed transmission which is stated to give a maximum road speed of up to 110 km/h. It has independent suspension at each wheel station and a claimed high level of cross-country mobility.

L'Arabie se dote d'une nouvelle firme militaire
AFP 18/05/2017
L'Arabie saoudite, l'un des principaux acheteurs d'armes au monde, a annoncé jeudi la création d'une nouvelle entreprise militaire pour dynamiser son industrie de défense. La Saudi Arabian Military Industries (SAMI), contrôlée par le gouvernement, "entend devenir l'une des 25 entreprises de défense mondiales d'ici à 2030", indique dans un communiqué le fonds souverain Public Investment Fund (PIF).
Cette annonce intervient deux jours avant l'arrivée à Riyad du président américain Donald Trump pour sa première visite à l'étranger. Des entreprises américaines figurent parmi les principaux fournisseurs d'armes à l'Arabie saoudite qui, depuis deux ans, mène une campagne militaire au Yémen voisin contre des rebelles accusés de liens avec l'Iran.
Cette nouvelle société sera à la fois fabricant et fournisseur de services, selon le PIF. Cela comprendra la maintenance et la réparation d'avions, la production de drones, la fabrication et la réparation de véhicules militaires. Elle sera également impliquée dans les armes et les missiles, ainsi que dans les radars et autres équipements électroniques de défense. Elle contribuera à hauteur de 3,7 milliards de dollars au Produit intérieur brut et investira plus de 1,6 milliard de dollars dans la recherche et le développement d'ici à 2030, précise le PIF.
Le gouvernement saoudien dit qu'actuellement, la part des dépenses militaires locales représente seulement 2% et qu'il vise à atteindre le chiffre de 50% d'ici à 2030. Dans un rapport diffusé en avril, le Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) a indiqué qu'en 2016, l'Arabie saoudite était le quatrième importateur d'armes au monde avec 63,7 milliards de dollars. "SAMI établira des firmes par des coentreprises avec des fabricants d'équipements mondiaux et par la coopération avec des entreprises militaires locales", indique le PIF.
Parmi les entreprises locales figure la Military Industries Corporation, également contrôlée par l'Etat, dont le patron avait indiqué en décembre à l'AFP qu'il faudrait "quelques années" pour réduire la dépendance de l'armement étranger.
Le royaume a déjà commencé à développer des pièces de rechange, des véhicules blindés et des munitions. Le renforcement de l'industrie militaire locale est l'un des objectifs de l'ambitieux plan Vision 2030, lancé l'an dernier et prévoyant de réduire la dépendance du royaume de ses recettes pétrolières, en baisse depuis l'effondrement à la mi-2014 des cours du brut. Selon Vision 2030, le PIF est appelé à devenir le plus grand fonds souverain au monde.

Pakistan looks at COIN role for Super Mushshak aircraft
Alan Warnes, Kamra - IHS Jane's Defence Weekly
19 May 2017
The state-owned Pakistan Aeronautical Complex (PAC), in Kamra, northern Pakistan, is looking at counter-insurgency (COIN) roles for its Super Mushshak training aircraft.
The move comes after the company successfully integrated a new glass cockpit into the aircraft and sold units of the basic trainer to Nigeria (10 units), Qatar (8 ), and Turkey (52) over the past year.
PAC is fitting weapons onto its Super Mushshaks. This aircraft is armed with two Chinese FT-10s PGBs in late April. (Alan Warnes)
The company is now adding intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities by fitting the aircraft with electro-optic/infrared (EO/IR) sensor turrets, with one Super Mushshak already equipped with an L3 Wescam MX-10.
PAC chairman Air Marshal Arshad Malik told Jane's, "We have had several customers enquiring about integrating an ISR system; so we are looking at options.
"While sitting in the cockpit's right seat, the turret operator would control the camera and watch the video feed on the glass screen. At the same time the imagery could be downlinked to the battle commander on the ground. It's a very simple system," the air marshal added.
The second initiative is to arm the Super Mushshak. After initial aerodynamic and structural analysis, one Chinese-built 25 kg FT-10 precision-guided bomb (PGB) was mounted under each wing of one of the aircraft on 29 April.
Complete integration of the weapons is expected to take another three to four months, which will also cover the design and manufacture of the pylons, quality checks, flight test, and eventually a test drop.
The PAC chairman pointed out that to ease the pilot's workload, "PAC is in the process of incorporating servos for the autopilot, too". The newly designed system would assist the pilot in controlling the aircraft should there be any aerodynamic instability after dropping one or both bombs.
An expert at the PAC Kamra's design, technology, and integration department admitted that it would take some time to verify and physically validate the findings of aerodynamic analysis.

Sudan MIC fleshes out Sarsar APC family
Christopher F Foss, London - IHS Jane's International Defence Review
22 May 2017
Sudan's Military Industrial Corporation (MIC) has released further details of its expanded Sarsar family of 4x4 armoured personnel carriers (APCs).
MIC has not released details of the Sarsar's chassis, but this could be based on a commercial model that has been fitted with an all welded steel body, which provides the occupants with protection from small-arms fire and shell splinters.
However, the lower part of the hull does not appear to be V-shaped to provide a higher level of protection against mines and improvised explosive devices.
A similar layout has been adopted across the Sarsar family, with the protected engine compartment to the front and with the commander and driver to the immediate rear.
The fully enclosed troop compartment is at the rear with the dismounts being seated three on either side, facing inwards, and entering and leaving via a large rear door.
The Sarsar family's baseline protection level is claimed to reach level B6, with bullet/splinter-proof windows fitted to all vehicles.
A protected weapon station (PWS) armed with a 7.62 mm or a 12.7 mm machine gun (MG) can be mounted on the roof.
The vehicles are also equipped with a similar suspension system comprising rigid axles with leaf-springs and hydraulic shock absorbers.
The baseline Sarsar is powered by a six cylinder inline diesel engine developing 128hp coupled to a transmission with five forward and one reverse as well as a two-speed transfer case. This gives power-to-weight ratio of 23.27hp/tonne.
Optional equipment includes a front-mounted winch and wire mesh protection for the windows, which is of particular use in the internal security role.
Sarsar 1 has been shown fitted with firing ports below the vision devices in the rear troop compartment. There is also a firing port and associated vision device in the rear door.
It features a higher protection level, and the steel armoured hull is claimed to provide protection against 7.62 mm rounds fired from a distance of 100 m.
