In recognition of the Company’s commitment to offer the full span of its capabilities across the defence, aerospace and security domains in India, BAE Systems’ pavilion at this signature event spans products and solutions in Air and Defence Information, Maritime, Intelligence and Security, and Electronics Systems.

Initially created for the Swedish army and sold to six nations, the CV90 Light Tank provides high tactical and strategic mobility, and survivability in any terrain or tactical environment. Designed to provide maximum availability and cost-efficiency throughout its operational lifespan, the CV90’s systems require only straightforward, low-cost maintenance. The platform’s future-proof design, the result of continuous improvement from operational feedback, allows for new upgrades and variants.

A proven workhorse in battle situations, the BvS10 armored all-terrain vehicle provides an unbeatable combination of mobility, payload and protection. The world's first 155mm Howitzer weighing under 10000lbs (4218kg), the highly mobile M777, on display at DefExpo this year is the subject of ongoing discussions between the Indian and US Governments in relation to a possible sale, in support of the Indian Army’s modernisation programme.

Reinforcing its commitment to supporting indigenous capability through investment, technology sharing and co-development, BAE Systems is located in Hall 9 alongside Defence Land Systems India, its Joint Venture with Mahindra & Mahindra.

In the Electronic Systems sector, the company will have a variety of future soldier technologies on display, including handheld thermal monoculars. These technologies will be displayed in conjunction with other components of BAE Systems equipment developed to maximize the capabilities of dismounted personnel in military and security operations. Among the BAE Systems products on display is a lightweight thermal weapon sight featuring a 28-micron focal plane array which requires less power and reduces weight. Two other innovative BAE Systems’ products for dismounted personnel on display include the SkeetIR® and RED-I®. The size of a credit card, the weapon-mountable SkeetIR is not only one of smallest thermal monoculars available today, it is also one of the most versatile thermal imagers in the world. With its hotkey functionality, a modular weapon, helmet, and accessory interface, SkeetIR adapts in seconds to virtually any weapon. The RED-I, or Remote Eyepiece Display Imager, is a head mounted display compatible with military night sensors such as thermal weapon sights and the SkeetIR.

Further, Geospatial eXploitation Products (GXP) software specialists will show how to use GXP Xplorer data management software to connect to and crawl various disparate data repositories to find information in GIS feature databases, product and national libraries, map and chart libraries, tactical datastores, and other intelligence data sources.

Dean McCumiskey, Managing Director & CEO-India, BAE Systems, “DefExpo is an extremely important platform for us in the continuing development of our business and the last two years have marked very good progress. Partnering with the industry in achieving self-reliance in the design, development, and production of equipment, systems and platforms is the cornerstone of our business in India and we take pride in the milestones our joint ventures with Mahindra & Mahindra and Hindustan Aeronautics Limited have marked in their journeys since the last DefExpo. As we build our footprint, we are committed to creating key intellectual property indigenously working closely with partners and customers to deliver best of breed solutions.”

Press Information Bureau English Releases

Defence Minister Shri AK Antony declared open the Defexpo India-2012, the 7th Land, Naval and Internal Security Systems Exhibition, here this morning. Following is the full text of his Inaugural Address on the occasion:

“Distinguished participants, guests and friends,

On behalf of the Ministry of Defence, Government of India, I take this opportunity to extend a very warm welcome to all our distinguished delegates and participants from across the world to DEFEXPO INDIA 2012. I wish you all a very pleasant and a successful visit.

DEFEXPO INDIA 2012 is the seventh of the series of India’s Land and Naval Systems Exposition, being biennially organised by the Ministry of Defence since 1999. This year the event has been organised in association with Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry, an example of public-private partnership.

Over the years, with your active participation, DEFEXPO has witnessed rapid growth, from its modest beginnings in 1999. This year it has recorded unprecedented growth, both in terms of company participation and official delegations. This year, 58 official delegations including 18 ministerial delegations are attending DEFEXPO 2012.

At the politico-security level, India has always been recognised as a responsible power and a stabilising factor in this region, in the face of various security challenges originating from different sources around us. India has traditionally been a peace-loving nation. However, we have to be ready to meet any challenge to our territorial integrity and sovereignty. Our Armed Forces need to have access to the latest defence technologies, equipped with the state-of-the-art platforms, equipment and systems to meet any threat. Our Government’s efforts are directed towards modernisation our Armed Forces.

India’s defence expenditure in the recent past has been around 2% of the GDP, which is consistent with our security needs, as well as our requirements in the area. With the projected growth of the Indian economy expected at a trajectory of 8-10% for the next two decades, expenditure on defence in absolute terms is bound to increase.

It need not be over-emphasised that we have to achieve a high level of indigenisation in defence and this is our thrust area. Our quest for self-reliance in defence underlines the growing importance of private sector participation on the one hand, and revitalising the public sector on the other. Our emphasis is on public-private sector partnership in the defence industry. Enabling Policy framework has been put in place to develop indigenous capabilities through harnessing the potential and utilising resources available, both in the public and the private sector. Our defence industry is now open up to 100 per cent for Indian private sector participation, while Foreign Direct Investment is permissible up to 26 per cent.

We have been periodically reviewing the Defence Procurement Procedures to usher in greater transparency and speed in the defence acquisition process. The introduction of “Buy & Make (Indian)” category in Defence Procurement Procedures is aimed at encouraging proactive participation of the Indian industry by way of forming joint ventures with any foreign manufacturer.

Offset banking is permissible in our Defence Offset policy, the scope of which has now been expanded to include civil aerospace, internal security and training within the ambit of eligible products and services for discharge of offset obligations. The licensing condition has already been rationalised. As part of the continuous process of periodic review of our Defence Procurement Procedure, review of the Defence Offset Policy is also being undertaken and further changes are expected in due course.

The Indian defence industry has gradually matured over the years and substantial capabilities have been developed in land, naval and air systems. As a result of the introduction of Defence Offset Policy, India is gradually becoming a key outsourcing hub for the global defence industry.

DEFEXPO INDIA 2012 is our endeavour to showcase India’s capabilities in land, naval and security systems, as well as its emergence as an attractive destination for investment in defence sector. The event will also demonstrate our capability to design, develop and deliver a wide range of military and civil products and services to meet the stringent specifications and, that too, at most competitive prices. We are open to enter into mutually beneficial agreements with friendly countries in the field of critical and state-of-the-art futuristic defence technologies. We would welcome all such proposals in our endeavour to modernise our Armed Forces.

I am confident that DEFEXPO 2012 would provide ample opportunities to all the exhibitors to display their latest technologies and products. This platform would also enable them to tap the market and business potential for mutual benefit. I would also like all our defence production units to learn from the experience of their overseas collaborators participating in DEFEXPO INDIA 2012.

I would also like to request the participants and officials of Ministry of Defence to actively participate in the Seminar on the topical subject being organised by FICCI during the exhibition. I would also like to recommend FICCI, our event manager and the team of Ministry officers working closely together for making excellent arrangements for conducting DEFEXPO 2012.

I once again extend a warm welcome to all the participants, guests, exhibitors present at DEFEXPO 2012. I hope that your stay will be a fruitful and an enjoyable one. I am sure it will be a grand success. May I also take this opportunity to announce that 8th DEFEXPO INDIA will be held from February 6-9, 2014 at New Delhi.

WITH THESE WORDS, I DECLARE DEFEXPO 2012 OPEN.

Thank You. Jai Hind.”

Launches Prahar missile launcher and armoured vehicles

Tata Motors today showcased a new Micro Bullet-Proof Vehicle (MBPV) at DEFEXPO India 2012, a highly mobile combat vehicle for indoor combat inside airports, railway stations and other such infrastructure. The concept is the first of its kind design to assist the country's elite forces in indoor combat.

Besides, Tata Motors launched four other defence vehicles - the Tata 12x12 Prahaar Missile Carrier, the Tata Light Armoured Vehicle, the Tata Mobile Bunker and the Tata 6x6 7kl Refueler and displayed a range of other concept vehicles, such as the Tata Quick Deployment Mobile Communication Terminal (QDMCT).

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. P. M. Telang, Managing Director - India Operations, Tata Motors, said, "The launch of our new combat & tactical vehicles and equipment, leveraged from our strength in design and development of a wide range of commercial vehicles, now enables us to cover the entire defence mobility spectrum. Tata Motors defence solutions already covers the complete range of logistics and armoured vehicles that have also been popular in supporting the police and paramilitary forces in counter insurgency operations."

At the DEFEXPO, Tata Motors displayed scaled models of its concept Futuristic Infantry Combat Vehicle (FICV) (Tracked & Wheeled), including the turret. In addition, the proposed layout of the production facility was also displayed. Tata Motors is one of the four Indian companies, which has been issued the Expression of Interest (EoI) by the Indian Army, for the FICV - a 'Make Indian' project. Tata Motors has accordingly responded to the EoI based on indigenous design and development in association with key technology partners and submitted their response in October 2010.

Tata Micro Bullet-Proof Vehicle (MBPV): The Tata Micro Bullet-Proof Vehicle (MBPV) is a project that is being jointly developed by VRDE-DRDO and Tata Motors, for providing the country's elite commando forces (NSG, Marine Commandos, Para Battalions & Force One) with a protected mobility solution that assists them during indoor combat against insurgents. The need for this kind of a solution has been felt desperately by commando units, who face multiple hostage situations; wherein terrorists have been holed up inside confined premises, houses, hotels, malls and airports.

The MBPV has been designed keeping indoor combat in mind, with special features like bullet resistant panels for protection, compact dimensions, with 4-wheel assisted turning for easy movement within indoor confines and high power-to-weight ratio for fast & agile movement, during combat. Firing ports have also been incorporated for retaliatory action. Moreover, it has an added capability of climbing stairs as well.

Tata 12x12 Prahaar Missile Carrier: Tata Motors has developed an indigenous high mobility, all-terrain and all-wheel drive, Tata LPTA 5252-12 X12 vehicle, specifically for missile launcher cum carrier applications like integration of Prahar, BrahMos and Nirbhay Missiles, in close coordination with R&DE - DRDO.

Tata Light Armoured Vehicle: The Internal Homeland Security Forces and the State Police Forces, being endowed with the prime responsibility of securing the State, consistently move in and out of territories which are extremist hotbeds. Keeping this in mind, Tata Motors has developed the Tata Light Armoured Vehicle to aid the troops in Counter Insurgency Operations, as well as for patrolling the hinterland. In line with this, the Tata Light Armoured Vehicle has been engineered to be far superior to its competitors; in terms of performance, safety & convenience and meeting CMVR regulations.

Tata Mobile Bunker: Tata Mobile Bunker has been designed on the LPA 713 4-wheel drive platform, to ensure fast & safe movement of troops in naxal infested states and to act as a platform for retaliatory action. The vehicle is protected against gunfire, corresponding to ballistic protection of NIJ Level III. It is a highly mobile platform and can be used as a base for various protected applications like troop carriers, ambulances and buses.

Tata 6x6 7kl Refueler: Tata Motors has developed an indigenous high mobility, all-terrain and all-wheel drive refueler vehicle, specifically for the Indian Armed forces, Paramilitary, State police, DPSUs, State Government & Municipal agencies and the Aviation industry. The base vehicle has already been trial evaluated by the Indian Armed forces, for various applications like Common Gun Tower, HMV with material handling crane and Multi-Barrel Rocket launcher GRAD BM 21.

Tata LSV - QDMCT (Quick Deployment Mobile Communication Terminal): The Tata LSV - QDMCT is a shelter based, self-contained vehicle mounted communication system that provides wide area IP network. It provides reliable and secured IP connectivity for data, voice & video, between various nodes. Multiple communication media have been provided for both data & voice connectivity. The state-of-the-art Tata QDMCT is designed and developed in collaboration with RCI - DRDO. The system has found an ideal platform in the Tata LSV, which is a high payload, high mobility & low silhouette military platform, designed for withstanding tough weather and terrain conditions.

Tata 8x8 Water Purification System: Tata Motors has developed a mobile water decontamination system on the LPTA 3138 8x8, for all-terrain, all weather operation in collaboration with M/s. WEW (Germany). This application is especially developed keeping the drinking water contamination problem, faced by Armed Forces, Paramilitary force, at disaster struck areas. This application is also apt for State Governments and various Municipal agencies, to tackle the issue of supplying drinking water to remote villages. This water decontamination system is capable of purifying the most impure forms of water and makes it portable through Reverse Osmosis (RO) process.

Tata 8x8 Missile Carrier: Tata Motors has developed an indigenous high mobility, all-terrain and all-wheel drive Tata vehicle, specifically for various all terrain applications like Command and Control unit, Missile Carrier, MHC Radar Station and Missile Firing Platform.

Tata Motors has designed and developed the Safari Storme GS 800, in-house, in line with the requirements of the forces.

Tata Safari Storme Armoured: With the strong resurgence of threat perceptions amongst high profile dignitaries, trade delegates, etc., the need arises for a mode of transport, which is very safe, but at the same time comfortable and stylish enough for this segment of people. Tata Motors offers the Tata Armored Safari Storme, equipped with latest state-of-art technology, for catering to VVIP movements. The Armored Safari Storme inculcates a strengthened chassis & suspension system, enhanced braking efficiency of the vehicle, to take care of the additional armoring weight, so that the performance of vehicle remains similar, to that of the unarmored Safari. Such a vehicle carries a CMVR certificate and is legal to run on road as per CMVR. The vehicle has internal Up-Armoring and to the untrained eye, the look is "innocent".

Tata Xenon Recce 4x4: Tata Motors has developed the Xenon Recce 4x4, specifically for off-road patrolling usage by the Armed Forces, both in India and abroad. For this purpose, it has developed separate engines, complying with both BS III, as well as Euro norms. Equipped with state-of-the-art high mobility features, the Xenon Recce provides the Central Paramilitary Forces, and State police forces, with a lethal platform to carry out Combing Operations, Jungle Warfare with ease.

French Miss: Dassault ducks India Defexpo

What should be one's first order of business after achieving L1 status in India's Medium Multirole Combat Aircraft (MMRCA) competition? Miss a major defence trade show in New Delhi, of course. After all, it is only the fighter deal of the century.


Following the MMRCA short listing last April, which saw the Gripen, F/A-18 E/F, F-16IN, and MiG-35 knocked out of contention, and news of the Rafale's selection (and Eurofighter's effective departure) in January, I was not exactly expecting an MMRCA orgy at this year's Defexpo India 2012. But I did take it for granted that I would encounter confident signs of French satisfaction, such as Rafale banners or even a full sized mock up.

As I wandered the halls of DefExpo this morning, however, I felt an unease grow in me. Something was just not right. After several puzzled moments it dawned on me: no Rafale stuff!

To be fair, Defexpo is chaotic as only an Indian tradeshow can be. It is conceivable that perhaps I missed an enormous Dassault pavilion with 'MMRCA final contender!' emblazoned all over the place, but try as I might, I could find hardly a hint that MMRCA exists. I checked a list of show participants: no Dassault, no Rafale.

Evan Pilatus, whose PC 7 Mk II has achieved L1 status in the basic trainer competition, has a modest stand. Nothing fancy, but at least there are a few guys hanging around with a nice coffee machine.

Eurofighter, for its part, has a decent-sized stand manned by a big contingent - a large enough presence to suggest they are still quite hopeful that their French foe will again succumb to the Curse of the Rafale. The French team is getting a reputation as the Andy Murray of fighter competitions after 11th hour chokes in the Brazilian and UAE campaigns. A large model of the Captor-E AESA was prominently displayed in the stand.

After some searching I found a model of the Rafale at the modest Thales stand.


"I'm looking for the Dassault stand," said I to the booth babe.

"Who is that?"

"Er, Rafale?"

"If you pass me your card I'll have him call you."

"I'll come back, thanks."


Perhaps the Rafale team is fearful of celebrating too soon, lest they jinx their chances in the delicate negotiations now underway. If so, then their fear of bringing bad luck upon themselves almost borders on paranoia.

I mentioned the French no-show to an executive involved in one of the campaigns that didn't make the cut last April.

"If you had L1 status, would you be promoting (cool fighter X) today?"

"Of course! It's all about building confidence." Then, with a shrug: "But that's just the French."

The Asian Skies blog will again hunt for the elusive Rafale tomorrow.
