  • Union of South Africa
    SWITZERLAND Background: The Swiss Confederation was founded in 1291 as a defensive alli- ance among three cantons. In succeeding years, other localities joined the original three. The Swiss Confederation secured its independence from the Holy Roman Empire in 1499. Swit-zerland's sover- eignty and neutrality have long been honored by the major European powers, and the country was not involved in either of the two World Wars. The political and economic integration of Europe over the past half century, as well as Switzerland's role in many UN and international organ- izations, has strengthened Switzerland's ties with its neighbors. However, the country did not officially become a UN member until 2002. Switzerland remains active in many UN and international organizations, but retains a strong commit- ment to neutrality. Geography Switzerland: Location: Central Europe, east of France, north of Italy. Area: total: 41,290 sq km. Area - comparative: slightly less than twice the size of New Jersey. Land boundaries: total: 1,852 km. Border countries: Austria 164 km, France 573 km, Italy 740 km, Liechtenstein 41 km, Germany 334 km. Climate: temperate, but varies with alti - tude; cold, cloudy, rainy/snowy winters; cool to warm, cloudy, humid summers with occasional showers. Terrain: mostly mountains (Alps in south, Jura in northwest) with a central plateau of rolling hills, plains, and large lakes. Elevation ex - tremes: lowest point: Lake Maggiore 195 m, highest point: Dufourspitze 4,634 m. Natural resources: hydropower poten- tial, timber, salt. Natural hazards: avalanches, landslides, flash floods. Geography - note: landlocked; crossroads of north- ern and southern Europe; along with southeastern France, northern Italy, and southwestern Austria, has the highest eleva- tions in the Alps.

His legacy to his successor Ursula von der Leyen is largely a heap of dust and ashes. Five years ago he came to power with a fanfare for the future. The European Union was to be given a new burst of vitality, become closer to its citizens, at last put an end to its constant preoccupation with itself, and work towards solving the real problems of our times. None of these good intentions have been transformed into reality, not even notionally. Instead, the situation has become worse – a whole lot worse. This is due not least to the fact that the United Kingdom is on the verge of leaving the Euro- pean Union.

It ain’t necessarily so, as John Dickson- Simpson discovered at this year’s Defence Vehicle Dynamics show. uch of the headline news, in British circles at least, from the big Unimog running gear gets everywhere: including this mine-proof MacNeillie Defence Vehicle Dynamics (DVD) display of military vehicles at personnel carrier. Mthe end of June was related to the start of delivery to the British Army of 6,928 cargo carriers and 288 recovery trucks built by MAN of Germany. Yet for engineers the main intrigue of this year’s DVD show at Bedfordshire’s Millbrook proving ground lies in the American products that dominate military activity around the world, not least in Iraq and Afghanistan, where greater technical co-operation between allies surely would be strategically beneficial. But the Americans can hardly be accused of being possessive about their vehicle technology. Witness Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics and Stewart & Stevenson. They have acquired, respectively, Britain’s Supacat, Switzerland’s Mowag and Pinzgauer of Austria and Britain. The main reason why American military vehicles attract the admiration of engineers is that they seem to reflect a desire to devise the best products for the job, not the cheapest. Take the six-wheel-drive Mowag Duro truck chassis, from the General Dynamics stable, for example. It has a DeDion rear axle with high The fence in defence: Force chassis-mounted final-drive units, Protection’s Mastiff six-wheeler with an coil springs giving large deflection, outrigged fence to deflect explosions and transverse location by a Watts and diffuse blasts.

However, in countless continued conflicts large and small, people are being killed, maimed or injured, landscapes and cultural treasures are being destroyed, defaced and damaged, and national assets and resources are being plundered and squandered. In land-based operations to defeat these threats and their accompanying realities, the focus falls on soldiers, security forces and first responders who – often at the risk of their own lives – protect people, enforce justice and guard assets on behalf of their governments. These are dangerous jobs, and there is a clear duty of care upon the employers for the health and well-being of their “human assets”.

All Rights Reserved. 2 Introduction As part of Janes’ support of the New Hampshire Aerospace and Defense Export Consortium (NHADEC), Janes will provide a series of ten high-level market reports on subjects of NHADEC’s choosing as well as two in-depth market segment reports. This market segment market report focuses on the soldier modernization market and is comprised of the following elements: 1. Overview of the main aspects of soldier modernization 2. Ongoing programs 3. Market forecast 2021-2025 Copyright © 2021 Jane's Group UK Limited. All Rights Reserved. Soldier modernization evolution 3 1990s-2000 2000s-2010 2010s-2020 2030s • Future soldiers programs have been in the making for decades, although the concept only started reaching maturity in the 1990s with the advent of France’s FELIN or the US Land Warrior and Objective Force Warrior. In the 1990s, most projects were still heavily influenced by Cold War type engagement scenarios with a strong focus on mechanized infantry. Technological ambitions were huge and envisioned the use of airburst type combined weapons by “super soldiers” fully networked, heavily armed, capable of dissimulating through adaptive camouflage and holograms and able to live of the land thanks to genetically altered seeds able to turn into edible vegetables in hours. • Of the different programs launched in the 1990s, only FELIN reached maturity, albeit in a much different form than originally conceived. The system started to be fielded by the end of the 2000s and made its debut in operations in Afghanistan in 2011.

While the “survivability onion” concept remains valid in terms of sequence if seen from the attacker’s standpoint, see – acquire – hit – penetrate – kill, looking at survivability from the defender’s standpoint brings in other elements that are not necessarily linked to the vehicle, such as intelligence and training, while many others may impact survivability in different ways.
