Key Skills and Competences Study: Annex B RR Key Skills and Competences for Defence EDA contract reference: 14.CPS.OP.030 Annex B Lucia Retter, Louise Taggart and Jon Freeman The work described in this report was carried out under EDA contract. Responsibility for the contents resides with the organisation that prepared it. RAND Europe RAND Europe RR-1226/1-EDA 10 March 2015 Annex B - Current and Prospective European Equipment Programmes This Annex accompanies Chapter 3 and presents three tables: • A table of current procurement programmes with major involvement (design and production) of European defence industry (Table B.1) • A table of maintenance and upgrades requirements currently on contract (Table B.2) • A table of prospective requirements treated as likely in open source literature (Table B.3) The data underpinning this Annex comes from publically available sources; principally: IHS Jane’s, IISS Military Balance 2014 and SIPRI Trade Register. Additional search with regard to specific programmes was conducted through other open source literature such as defence magazines (e.g. Defence Industry Daily), company press releases and other public media websites (e.g. the Guardian, the BBC, etc). The difficulty to access accurate data on cost, schedule, workshare arrangements or even the full coverage of a given contract in the defence sector is well known. Using publically available data naturally carries with it several risks in terms of its accuracy: • Publically available data is likely to underestimate the number of procurement programmes as some programmes will not be made known to open sources due to national security reasons or due to lack of transparency. The level of information varies per programme and per country (i.e. cost and schedule information is not available for many large programmes) • Publically available data on cost of programmes is likely to underestimate the true cost1 • Publically available data points are difficult to validate and verify and different information may appear in different (and equally reliable) sources With these caveats in mind, this Annex seeks to provide some indication of developments in the European defence equipment market, with a focus on those programmes that require significant design and production contribution by European companies (and hence ‘European’ skills). Our analysis does not consider joint programmes with majority share of non- EU companies (such as the Joint Strike Fighter Programme) even though we do recognise that these programmes contain an element of EU companies’ involvement and thus their skills (especially in areas such as management, certification and maintenance). 1 See past RAND studies highlighting underestimation of cost in defence procurement such as Arena et al (2006). 1 2 Table B.1.

  • Future Technology and International Cooperation a UK Perspective
    MAY Future Technology and International Cooperation A UK perspective In 2011, NATO’s Integrated Air Defence (NATINAD) and the supporting NATO Integrated Air Defence System (NATINADS) marked 50 years of safeguarding NATO’s skies. In order to successfully reach future milestones NATO must continue (and in many cases improve) its air defence interoperability across the strategic, operational and tactical domains. In order for this to become reality a combination of exploiting synergies and acknowledging that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts1 is required at all levels. Recent improvements and a greater focus on future capability within the UK’s Joint Ground Based Air Defence (Jt GBAD) will enable the Formation to deploy its units and sub-units in order to operate the latest air defence weapon systems, within a multinational environment, against a near-peer adversary or asymmetric threat, and win.
