BIHO II advanced air-defense system
The Biho II revolves around a modular turret, which can mount a 3D radar, an electro-optical sensor, and an additional tracking radar. From marketing materials, the tracking radar appears to be for “C-RAM,” or shooting at unguided artillery projectiles that may be too small or fast to be picked up on electro-optical sensors. All of the sensors and their mounts are meant to be modular on the Biho II, with different configurations for different roles being possible, including radar or EOTS-only turrets.

The new turret also appears to be designed to accommodate a variety of guns. Slides about the Biho II suggest that it could mount 30mm, 35mm, or 40mm guns depending on customer preference. The missile fit of the Biho II is also designed to be modular, with short-range SAMs, medium-range SAMs, and even anti-tank missiles presented as options that could be mounted to either side of the turret in pods. One configuration shows the Biho II system as a tracked vehicle mounting two quad-packs of AIM-9X anti-air missiles.

Owning this system alone is a very strong plus.. Let alone its manufacture .. it provides short - medium and medium+ ranges..

New JV and Strategic Partnership between the Saudi Advanced Technologies Company (Wahaj) and ELSEL for ELSEL LIVET RCWS development..

ELSEL “LIVET” Remotely Controlled Dual Weapons System

The Light Vehicular Turret (LIVET) is designed and manufactured by ELSEL s.r.l., an Italian company with 30+ years of experience in the defense sector. LIVET is the only product of this type purposely designed to be very open to customization and upgrade, so it can easily accept any type of payload at customer choice (obviously within some weight and recoil limit). It is primarily designed for use on light wheeled or tracked combat vehicles, fast attack boats and other platforms requiring improved offensive capabilities. It can also be easily networked for use in centralized static installations, e.g. to protect sensitive sites or for border surveillance.
The fire control system allows engagement of targets by day and night; the electrical, fully digital servo systems and the primarily stabilized line of fire (2 axes), ensure a high accuracy of fire, also on the move, while keeping the gunner safe and secure within the vehicle.
Despite of its low weight (less than 160kg) and size, it’s able to mount two medium caliber weapons for maximum firepower (e.g. both a .50MG and a 40AGL), providing also light vehicles with the capability to effectively engage lightly armored targets.
The wide variety of installable weapons makes it a standard choice for a full range of vehicles/platforms with different mission profiles like surveillance, patrolling in urban environment, border security, counter-sniper and asymmetric missions. Typical combinations are:
• .50MG +40AGL to engage armoured vehicles
• .50MG + 7.62 to engage troops
• 2x.50MG for high fire volume (e.g. against low flying helicopters)
• 2x.50 MG with different ammo (e.g. Ball and AP)
Also rockets, missiles or other equipment’s can be installed for more specialized missions, always using the same base components to reduce maintenance, spare parts and logistics overhead.
Lightweight and simplicity allow its installation also on light tactical or utility vehicles;the installation takes less than one hour to a non-skilled engineer: only few screws, three electrical cables among the unit and a cable to the vehicle battery. No other interface with the vehicle is required.
Due to all these characteristics, LIVET represents the baseline for a common armament platform to be used with different weapons across a variety of vehicles, allowing the customer to reduce the total ownership cost.
This product has successfully passed both the qualification tests and the firing test andnow is going to be sampled to selected customers.
Finally, all the components are ITAR/EAR free so there are no special export restrictions.

In a JV with Ventura Defense:

Ventura Saudi Arabia is working with determination to achieve the goals of Vision 2030 for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia by achieving the following, with the help of God:

1- Our systems are manufactured in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
2- Transferring our advanced knowledge and internationally distinguished technology to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and indigenizing it
3- For our facilities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to become national, productive in an integrated manner and independent of any global interventions

Simple solutions are more reliable and durable. We like keep it simple, easy to operate, easy to maintain, and without unnecessary complications. This is what we call Smart Innovation.


ALAKRAN is the first mortar-carrier with automatic aiming capabilities that does not need a recoil absorption mechanism. The principle of ALAKRAN is simple, to provide mobility to the mortar operation, without altering the mortar essence, i.e. simplicity and availability. For this reason our design was oriented from the first moment to shot from the ground, and to engineer an effective aiming mechanism. ALAKRAN is the market reference for 120/81mm high-mobility mortar system.

Vali Fire control system with a ballistic calculator adjusted by the ammunition aerodynamic characteristics, integrated with sensors and aiming screens to bring automatic aiming capabilities to artillery units.

1Command Suite Battle management system to provide situational awareness to commanders and fighters. It is specially designed for operation in hybrid warfare environments, avoiding units concentration and allowing operational coordination among units scattered in the territory.

This includes:

• 1C-FCS, an open battle management system for managing military units at tactical levels
• 1C-ACS, a system for managing indirect firing artillery units
• 1C-FOS, a forward observer system for target and impact point acquisition
• 1C-MAS, a mortar aiming system for mortars and other indirect firing weapons
• 1C-ALAKRAN, a system for managing combat operations for Ventura´s Alakran mortar carrier

In February 2016, Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin Company, signed an agreement to establish a joint venture with TAQNIA Aeronautics that will jointly explore helicopter production opportunities in Saudi Arabia. This agreement outlines the investment required, technology specification, and skills needed to establish a multi mission utility/attack helicopter final assembly line to produce Sikorsky S-70 BLACK HAWK helicopters in Saudi Arabia. Establishing the assembly line will provide high-skilled production jobs for Saudi citizens, enable technology transfer, and increase localization of the defense sector expenditure. TAQNIA will leverage its relationship with the Space and Aeronautics Research Institute at KACST to ensure the success of this partnership, as previously done with the ANTONOV Project (AN-132), where it have seen major strides with. TAQNIA Aeronautics will market the Black Hawk aircraft to members of the Islamic Alliance as well as other local companies such as Saudi ARAMCO.

Manufacture of Mechanical Fuzes M-904, M-905 at the Saudi Chemical Company



The industrial activities of Saudi Chemical Company Limited (SCCL) include the technologies and manufacturing of military explosives. The range of products cover: •TNT • RDX • Mechanical Fuzes M-904, M-905

M904 is a mechanical action nose fuze designed for use with all types of General Purpose (GP) low and high drag bombs Mk80.

The fuze is armed by air pressure causing the arming vanes to rotate. Minimum airspeed of approximately 150 knots is required for arming. Arming delay time is marked in 2 s intervals from 6 to 18 sec. On impact a firing delay time is provided by delay element M9. An adaptor is required to accommodate the 2 inch fuze thread in the larger fuze wells of the Mk80. This fuze may be used for impact and impact-delay application in conjunction with tail fuze M905.

M905 Nose fuze

​

The M-904 , M-905 is an explosive, impact-driven fuze for mechanical warheads; it is fit to be used with MK-80 series or similar low-drag general-purpose bombs. M-904 , M-905 can be configured for various arming times and explosive operating delays imposed by the specific needs of the bombing mission. There are 9 possible arming time selection options from 2–18 s, in 2 s increments. The fuze explosive operating time can also be selected depending on the delay used, with non-delay options, 0.01 s, 0.025 s, 0.05 s, 0.1 s and 0.25 s. Saudi Chemical Fuzes confirms to Military standard MIL-STD-331C..
