Thales and WB Group sign a Frame Agreement on Strategic Cooperation in the defence sector
03/09/2024
Pascale SOURISSE, Thales International, and Piotr WOJCIECHOWSKI, WBE/RADMOR - Thales
Under the terms of a Memorandum of Understanding, the purpose of the agreement is to establish a structure to manage the relationship between the two parties, based on mutually agreed principles governing the exploration of business opportunities across business units, with the ultimate goal to benefit the parties' customers.
The Agreement aims at exploring and undertaking common business and technology activities aiming at addressing the overall defence domain including land, aerospace, space and cyber markets.
As part of the long-lasting cooperation between the two groups, WBE/RADMOR has manufactured around 12,000 PR4G radios under a transfer of production from Thales. The two groups are now strengthening this cooperation with the joint development of a Polish certified SDR Radio, interoperable with existing fleet of WBE/RADMOR Radio to ease its adoption by Polish Armed forces, and ensuring coalition interoperability solution with ESSOR capacities. This unique SDR V/UHF solution will embark Polish security assets, including COMSEC, and will be locally produced & maintained by WBE/RADMOR. At MSPO Exhibition, WBE/Radmor and Thales are proud to unveil the 1st version of this SDR solution.
Thales is committed to building strong industrial collaborations and trusted local partnerships to the benefit of our international customers. Together with WB Electronics, Thales will leverage on its unique expertise and know-how within the Defence, Space and Cyber domains to further strengthen and develop the Polish defence sector , says Magdalena Nizik, Country Director for Poland & Baltics, Thales.
Thales Belgium and WBE/AREX, based on the MoU signed at this year's EUROSATORY, are deploying a mockup of AREX remote weapon station equipped with Thales launcher of 70 mm. rockets (FZ602) during MSPO.
This 70mm weapon system is already onboard AW149 helicopters purchased by the Polish Air Forces.
Leveraging on their respective competencies, the two companies can capitalize on their synergies and expertise to market together.
