  • World of Wheels Country Entry
    BELGIUM Flag description: three equal vertical bands of black (hoist side), yellow, and red note: the design was based on the flag of France. Background: Belgium became independent from the Neth- erlands in 1830; it was occupied by Germany during World Wars I and II. It has prospered in the past half century as a modern, technologically advanced European state and mem- ber of NATO and the EU. Tensions between the Dutch- speaking Flemish of the north and the French-speaking Wal- loon of the south have led in recent years to constitutional amendments granting these regions formal recognition and autonomy. Geography Belgium. Location: Western Europe, bordering the North Sea, between France and the Netherlands. Area: total: 30,528 sq. km. Area - comparative: about the size of Maryland. Land boundaries: total: 1,385 km. Border coun- tries: France 620 km, Germany 167 km, Luxembourg 148 km, Netherlands 450 km. Coastline: 66.5 km. Climate: tem- perate; mild winters, cool summers; rainy, humid, cloudy. Terrain: flat coastal plains in northwest, central rolling hills, rugged mountains of Ardennes Forest in southeast. Natural resources: construction materials, silica sand, carbonate. Natural hazards: flooding is a threat along rivers and in areas of reclaimed coastal land, protected from the sea by concrete dikes. Environment - current issues: the environment is exposed to intense pressures from human activities: urbanization, dense transportation network, industry, extensive anim- al breeding and crop cultivation; air and water pollution also have repercussions for neighboring coun- tries; uncertainties regarding federal and regional responsibilities (now resolved) have slowed pro- gress in tackling environmental challenges.

The development and testing process was long, incloved, and troubled, and deliveries did not begin until 2005. The Bushmaster is based on a design originally conceived by the Irish company of Timoney; considerable portions of the Bushmaster are therefore manufactured under a licensing agreement with Timoney, though production is undertaken wholly in Australia. ADI began the part of the design process done in Australia, but production later passed to Thales Australia, who also developed several variants. (Virtually all of these variants differ primarily in internal arrangements and equipment; externally, almost all of the different versions differ little from each other.) The primary users of the Bushmaster are the Australian Army and Air Force, but it is also used by the Dutch Army and British Army.

  • Annual Report on the Netherlands Arms Export Policy in 2010
    Letter to Parliament The Hague, September 2011 Subject: Annual report on the Netherlands Arms Export Policy in 2010 Further to the “Policy paper on greater transparency in the reporting procedure on exports of military goods” (Parliamentary Proceedings 22054 No.30, 27 February 1998) as sent to you at an earlier date, we hereby have the honour, also on behalf of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, to submit to you a report and appendices concerning the Netherlands Arms Export Policy in 2010. This report, which is also to appear as an English-language publication of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Agriculture & Innovation, considers among other things the instruments, procedures and principles of the Netherlands arms export policy. In addition, it examines the nature of the Dutch defence-related industry and describes a number of international developments in the field of arms export controls. The Netherlands arms export policy is at once restrictive and transparent. It is based on recognition that, in the interests of the international legal order and the safeguarding of peace and security, limits must be imposed on the export activities of the defence-related industry. Within those limits, in the Government’s judgement the Dutch industry should be able to meet other countries’ legitimate needs for defence equipment. Although small in scale, the industry nevertheless stands out by its high levels of technological production and innovation. In order to permit an assessment of whether an export transaction is admissible or whether it conflicts with the limits of the arms export policy, the export of military goods is prohibited unless an export licence has been obtained.

  • Base Bleed Artillery Projectile 155Mm HE RA-BB
    EDePro Kralja Milutina 33, Belgrade Serbia 155mm Hybrid Rocket Assist – Base Bleed Artillery Projectile 155mm HE RA-BB MO3 High Fragmenting Steel Body + TNT Body Steel Solid Rocket Motor BOAT-TAIL BB UNIT HYBRID RA/BB 23 km 30 km 39 cal. 52 cal. Base Bleed Unit 40+ km 56+ km HE RA-BB 155mm projectile is a rocket assisted-base bleed projectile that will extend the operational range of most 39, 45 and 52 caliber 155mm gun howitzers by +10 km, depending on the gun and charge used. The biggest contribution is on the 39 caliber gun-howitzers which will have the same performances as 52 caliber system with ERFB-BB projectiles. HE RA-BB 155mm projectile intent is not to replace existing HE projectiles. It compliments existing ammunition systems for greater ranges, requiring no special training or logistic. HE RA-BB 155mm enables 39 caliber 155mm gun howitzers to engage enemy battle units at greater ranges, whilst well beyond the range of their counter battery fire. It also enables long range harassment fire onto enemy logistic lines, forcing them to deploy an additional +10 kilometers from the front edge of the battle area. Its terminal effectiveness (blast and fragmentation) is same as that of the standard round. Penetration/piercing capabilities will give excellent performances in anti-structural use.

Our deepest sympathies go to his wife and his family. Dr Bossdorf joined Report Verlag in 2006, became its Publishing Director in 2007 and later was appointed Managing Direc- tor. In addition, he was Editor-in-Chief of the magazine "Strategie & Technik", which evolved from the traditional "Soldat und Technik" publication. As a result of the merger of Report Verlag with E.S. Mittler & Sohn publishing house, that created Mittler Report Verlag in 2012, the magazi- nes "Strategie & Technik" and "Europäische Sicherheit" were combined under his lea- dership to form the current "Europäische Sicherheit & Technik". At the same time, Dr Bossdorf was appointed Managing Director of Mittler Report Verlag, where he also played a decisive role in the development of the English-language magazine "Europe- an Security & Defence" from a quarterly magazine to an internationally recognised specialist monthly journal. One year ago, Dr Bossdorf also took over the management of K&K Medienverlag-Hardthöhe GmbH as Publisher of the magazine "Hardthöhen- kurier", so that he was most recently the highly valued Managing Director of two publishing houses as well as Editor-in-Chief of "European Security & Defence".
