Μια ακόμα στρατηγική συνεργασία της Θέων Αισθητήρες απέδωσε «καρπούς», αυτή τη φορά στην Αίγυπτο. Η εταιρεία υπέγραψε σύμβαση για την υλοποίηση ενός προγράμματος συμπαραγωγής οργάνων νυχτερινής όρασης με την κρατική εταιρεία παραγωγής ηλεκτρο-οπτικών συστημάτων, Arab International Optronics (ΑΙΟ).

Μόνο η πρώτη φάση του προγράμματος αφορά 3.700 όργανα. Πρόκειται για τις πλέον σύγχρονες και επιχειρησιακά προηγμένες διόπτρες παθητικού τύπου, όπως αποδεικνύεται από τη ζήτηση και την προτίμηση που δείχνουν σε αυτές οι τελικοί χρήστες σε παγκόσμιο επίπεδο.

Αξίζει να σημειωθεί ότι η Αίγυπτος διαθέτει τον μεγαλύτερο στρατό του Αραβικού κόσμου (σύμφωνα με την Global Firepower List 2016). Η συνεργασία της Θέων Αισθητήρες με το Αιγυπτιακό Υπουργείο Εθνικής Άμυνας μετρά ήδη 10 χρόνια, με τις δύο πλευρές να δηλώνουν, αλλά και να αποδεικνύεται στην πράξη, απόλυτα ικανοποιημένες από αυτήν.

Ο Γενικός Διευθυντής της Θέων Αισθητήρες, Βασίλειος Σαββαΐδης αναφερόμενος στην υπογραφή της σύμβασης τόνισε: « Η προώθηση αυτής της συνεργασίας ενισχύθηκε και από τις επιτυχημένες συναντήσεις που διοργανώθηκαν το 2016 τόσο στην Αθήνα όσο και στο Κάιρο από το Αιγυπτιακό και Ελληνικό Υπουργείο Εθνικής Άμυνας, το οποίο ευχαριστούμε, με τη συμμετοχή εταιρειών της αμυντικής βιομηχανίας των δύο χωρών.

»Τις ελληνικές εταιρείες συντόνισε και εκπροσώπησε επάξια ο φορέας της Ελληνικής Αμυντικής βιομηχανίας ΣΕΚΠΥ (Σύνδεσμος Ελλήνων Κατασκευαστών Αμυντικού Υλικού), τον οποίο επίσης ευχαριστούμε. Ευελπιστούμε ότι θα ακολουθήσουν συνεργασίες και για άλλες ελληνικές εταιρείες του κλάδου, τις οποίες η Θέων θα συνεχίσει να υποστηρίζει έμπρακτα στην πορεία τους μαζί με την Θέων προς τις αγορές του εξωτερικού».

«Η υπογραφή αυτής της σύμβασης αποτελεί μία ακόμα στρατηγική συμμαχία που ακολουθεί αυτές στην Αμερική, την Αυστραλία, την Ινδονησία και την Ινδία» σχολιάζει σχετικά ο Πρόεδρος της Θέων Αισθητήρες, Κρίστιαν Χατζημηνάς και συνεχίζει: «Στους στόχους της εταιρείας συμπεριλαμβάνονται δύο ακόμα στρατηγικές συμμαχίες-Joint Ventures-στη Μέση Ανατολή και την Άπω Ανατολή καθώς και μία στη Ν. Αμερική, οι οποίες αναμένεται να ολοκληρωθούν μέσα στο 2017. Αποτελούν μέρος μιας ευρύτερης πολιτικής που αφορά στην προώθηση των προϊόντων της εταιρείας μας αλλά και των προϊόντων των στρατηγικών μας εταίρων σε παγκόσμιο επίπεδο» καταλήγει ο ίδιος.

Theon Sensors "paid off", this time in Egypt. The company signed a contract to implement a night vision instrument production program with state electro-optical systems manufacturing company, Arab International Optronics (AIO).
It is worth mentioning that Egypt has the largest army in the Arab world (according to Global Firepower List 2016). The cooperation of Theon Sensors with the Egyptian Ministry of Defense already counts 10 years, with both parties to declare and demonstrate in practice totally satisfied by it.

Egyptian Navy to receive first of four Type 209 Submarines on 12th of December 2016

The first of four submarines for Egypt - «S41» - was officially handed over to the Egyptian navy on Monday in Kiel. In addition, a second submarine was named "S42" with a bottle of water from Mecca at the ceremonial ceremony. The Chief of the Egyptian Navy Vice-Admiral Osama Rabie, underlined the importance of submarines to secure Egyptian coasts and maritime economic zones. The CEO of ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems, Peter Feldhaus, spoke of a milestone in the cooperation with the Egyptian navy. There was no official information about the costs. The Kiel news reported that the four submarines cost about one billion euros.

are this system is the same catagory as
CAESAR self-propelled howitzer?

also want to know more about this air defence system?

Only in that it's a self propelled howitzer. The Caesar has a bigger gun (155mm) and can fire extended range full bore and rocket assisted shells. It is also fully computerised and features an automated laying system.

The Egyptian systems are basic in design and are meant to provide increased mobility to what where traditionally towed guns. It is meant to be cheap in order to fulfill the needs of the Armed Forces and be an attractive export for the rest of Africa.

also want to know more about this air defence system?

Amoun is a Rayethon and Oerlikon-Contraves designed point defence anti air system.

The system consists of two launchers each with four Sparrow 7M missiles, two Oerlikon 35mm twin cannons, and a fire control radar.

This system is exclusive to the Egyptian Armed Forces but has been exported to Kuwait as well.

Egypt does not operate the Pantsir air defence system. It operates the Shilka ZSU-23-4M5 (and earlier variants) in a similar role though.

Frogman is right. The other picture is the Pantsir system, the one you posted that is mounted on the truck with the radar and missile tubes on it and Egypt doesn't operate that system. The picture above (circled in red), I believe, is the Sakr MRLS Multiple Rocket Launch System license built in Egypt and is based on the Russian BM-21 MRL (different from the Pantsir in the other picture which is an air defense system). That particular set is the the tripod based unit which is the Sakr 4. There are other ones that mount on Jeeps and trucks as well.
