On the opening day of the SIM Forum, SAMI Navantia launched its first product, HAZEM. The first-ever Combat Management System (CMS) to be developed in the Middle East, HAZEM, has been designed to meet the requirements of the RSNF.

The development of HAZEM was realized through the transfer of technology (ToT) from Navantia and SAMI Navantia designed specifications as per RSNF’s requirements and based on Navantia’s CATIZ combat system. SAMI Navantia carried out the procurement of sensors and effectors, system integration, and program management, as well as integrated logistics support (ILS) and training, to build the product within the Kingdom.

Commenting on the launch, Antonio Rodriguez-Barberan, CEO of SAMI Navantia, said: “With the unveiling of HAZEM, SAMI Navantia has reached a new milestone in the pursuit of our overarching objectives to play a pivotal role in the formation of a thriving defense ecosystem in Saudi Arabia and the localization of 50% of Kingdom’s total military spending as envisaged in the Vision 2030 program. The state-of-the-art CMS is a testimony to our capabilities in facilitating ToT to create products that will provide flexibility and autonomy and meet the varying needs of the Royal Saudi Naval Forces (RSNF).”

Built as part of SAMI Navantia’s mandate in the Avante 2200 project of SAMI and Navantia, HAZEM combines the Integrated Communication System, Fire Control System, and Integrated Platform Management System.


* This is a very important milestone for Saudi Arabia's efforts to transfer advanced technoligies and manufacture them locally..

* This came as TOT with the AVANTE 2200 corvette which is a multi-role vessel designed specifically for surveillance and maritime control, search and rescue, providing assistance to other vessels and other missions. It has an impressive capability to protect strategic assets, intelligence gathering, as well as anti-submarine, anti-air, anti-surface and electronic warfare..

* For anyone who knows combat systems such as Hazem (developed from Cadiz)
They know that it can be derived to be a combat system for armored vehicles, helicopters, aircraft, and the Air Defense Network.. The most complicated is the ship system because it contains several radars, sensors and many weapons..It integrates radars, sonar, cannons, torpedoes, missiles, communication systems, electronic warfare, and and so on with each other and let them interact, exchange and analyze data and give orders..
That is the role of a combat management system (CMS) that represents the mind or brain of the warship..

* It is based on the Spanish Cadiz system that somehow compares to:

Lockheed Martin Aegis system

Naval Group SETIS system

SAAB 9LV system
