ST Kinetics, a subsidiary of the ST Engineering Singapore, has announced that it will be fielding the FH 2000 the worlds first and longest in-service 155 mm 52 Calibre towed Howitzer, in the field trials to be held next month.
At a press conference, ST Kinetics further elaborated that it has designed and developed the 155 mm 52 Calibre towed Howitzer, so that it could meet the Indian Armys total fire power needs. ST Kinetics officials added that the stalled trial of the 155 mm calibre 39 Pegasus Lightweight Howitzer (LWH) will also recommence soon.
ST Kinetics has established itself as an innovator in defence technologies, including those for the Pegasus, Trailblazer, Bronco, SAR 21, 40mm Air Bursting Munitions. ST Kinetics has been involved in the design and development of Howitzers for three decades. Its Howitzers include the FH 88, a 155mm Calibre 39 towed Howitzer, the FH 2000 155mm 52 Calibre Self Propelled Howitzer, the Pegasus Lightweight Self Propelled Howitzer and the Primus 155mm tracked Self Propelled Howitzer. Besides being a leader in providing 40mm grenade solutions, ST Kinetics is also actively engaged in enhancing the potential of artillery systems.
ST Kinetics aims to strategically place itself as a partner in the modernisation drive of the Indian Armed Forces. For instance, its Lightweight Howitzer Pegasus is a highly operable and portable system that meets the Indian Armys total battlefield needs. The Pegasus Howitzer has a better edge over others in its class due to its unique self propelled capability, flexible configuration and lower crew fatigue due to powered handling. Besides, ST Kinetics is also offering innovative and customised engineering solutions, including dual use systems such as the Bronco All Terrain Tracked Carrier suited for India due to its varied terrains.
ST Kinetics has revealed that it has bid for five contracts worth US$3 billion and is keen to set up a manufacturing base in India. The tenders comprise two artillery gun projects and a light strike vehicle for the army and two carbine rifle projects for internal security.
ST Kinetics, based in Singapore, is one of Asias leading land systems and speciality vehicle companies with a turnover of US$3.8 billion in 2008. It has a credible portfolio of products and services for the defence sector and commercial markets. Singapore Technologies is the worlds largest aircraft repair firm.
