    The Materials and Components for Missiles Innovation and Technology Partnership, MCM ITP Is a Dstl and DGA Sponsored Research Fu

    The Materials and Components for Missiles Innovation and Technology Partnership, MCM ITP is a dstl and DGA sponsored research fund open to all UK or French companies and academic institutions. Launched in 2007, the MCM ITP develops novel, exploitable technologies for generation-after-next missile systems. The MCM ITP aims to consolidate the UK-French Complex Weapons capability, strengthen the technological base and allow better understanding of common future needs. The programme manages a portfolio of over 100 cutting-edge technologies which hold the promise of major advances, but are still at the laboratory stage today. The MCM ITP is aligned into eight technical domains, each of which is led by one of the MCM ITP industrial consortium partners1. 1 The MCM ITP Industrial Consortium partners are: MBDA; THALES; Roxel; Selex ES; Safran Microturbo; QinetiQ; Nexter Munitions. Funding The programme is funded equally by the governments and the industrial partners and is composed of research projects on innovative and exploratory technologies and techniques for future missiles. There is strong participation from SMEs and academia with 76 participating in the programme to date, and a total of 121 organisations involved in the overall programme. With an annual budget of up to 12.5M€ and 30% of the budget targeted towards SMEs and Academia, the MCM has become the cornerstone of future collaborative research and technology demonstration programmes for UK-French missile systems. Conference On 21st and 22nd October 2015, DGA, dstl, MBDA and its partners will review the last two years of the MCM ITP programme, and present the technical advances that have been made possible thanks to this cooperative programme.

    Technical Supplements

    Technical Supplements S1 The IG JAS Investment In this Technical Supplement the JAS 39 Gripen product concept is outlined, the procurement process documented, the Industry Group IG JAS presented and the critical role of the competent public procurement agency, the FMV, highlighted. S1.1 The Procurement of the JAS 39 Gripen Aircraft with Swing-Role Capabilities The JAS 39 Gripen multirole combat aircraft (J stands for fighter, A for Attack and S for Surveillance/reconnaissance) is a fourth generation aircraft that entered operational service in 1997. It replaced the Viggen, the last of which was taken out of service in 2006. JAS 39 Gripen is a combat aircraft with swing-role capabilities that can change mission in flight. This swing-role capability was unique when Gripen was launched but has later been introduced on the French Rafale and the Eurofighter. Other competing multirole aircraft first have to land to reconfigure its information, guidance, and weapons systems for a new role. Gripen was the first “unstable” aircraft in the world which meant that in order for the aircraft to be stable at all speeds and in all maneuvers many more navigation surfaces are needed than the pilot can possibly control himself to minimize air friction at each moment. He needs incredibly sophisticated computer systems support to maneuver the aircraft effectively and safely. Competing fourth generation combat aircraft are F-35/JSF (the USA, not yet (2009) delivered to market), the Eurofighter Typhoon (the UK, etc.) and Rafale (Dassault, France). JAS 39 Gripen also competes with upgraded versions of the third generation aircraft of Lockheed Martin F-16 (the USA, first delivered in 1978), Boeing F/A18 Hornet (the USA, first delivered in 1983), Dassault Mirage 2000 (France, first delivered in 1983), and Mig-29 (the former Soviet Union, first delivered in 1977).

Analysis of Models Applicable to USAN* Eduardo Munhoz Svartman Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil Anderson Matos Teixeira Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil The creation of the Union of South American Nations (USAN) aroused expectations about joint development and production of military aircraft in South America. However, political divergences, technological asymmetries and budgetary problems made projects canceled. Faced with the impasse, this article approaches features of two military aircraft development experiences and their links with the regionalization processes to extract elements that help to account for the problems faced by USAN. The processes of adoption of the F-104 and the Tornado in the 1950s and 1970s by countries that later joined the European Union are analyzed in a comparative perspective. The two projects are compared about the political and diplomatic implications (mutual trust, military capabilities and regionalization) and the economic implications (scale of production, value chains and industrial parks).

    1 This is the second year that UKTI DSO has released defence and security export figures as ‘Official Statistics’. This year’s release has been compiled in conjunction with the BIS Statistics - Analysis team. The document takes into account feedback from readers via a User Engagement survey. Our defence statistics relate to sales to overseas Ministries of Defence and associated Armed Services. This makes them customer‐based, rather than product-based. Security data is provided by a contractor called kMatrix, under a multi-year contract to UKTI DSO. All the information collected on the defence and security markets is vital to our understanding of the shape of the market and trends. It helps UKTI DSO in targeting support to all sections of the defence and security industries. 2 3 The global defence export market in 2014 is estimated to be valued at more than £50Bn ($83Bn). In an increasingly competitive global export market, the UK’s defence export total of £8.5Bn in 2014 is a considerable achievement, particularly coming off the back of major platform exports in 2013. UK defence companies enjoyed global success throughout 2014. Selected UK defence wins included Trent 700 engines for A330 Multi-Role Tanker Transport (MRTT) aircraft to France; Advanced Short Range Air-to-Air Missiles (ASRAMM) to India and the ForceShield Integrated Air Defence System plus Starstreak Missiles to Indonesia. By geographic customer destination, the UK’s most important markets for defence and security exports were in the Middle East, North America and the Asia-Pacific. 4 Year-on-year, the global defence export market experiences peaks and troughs in response to fluctuations in defence spending levels, threat perception and national requirements.
