Sensor solutions provider - HENSOLDT recorded an order intake of well over one billion euros in the first half of the year. Major orders such as the German 'Air Defence System, Short- and Very Short-Range', or LVS NNbS, were commissioned in January and the massive support for the German air defense initiative ESSI (European Sky Shield Initiative) played a large part in this.
"We continued to fill our order book in the first half of the year and are thus continuing our growth trajectory," says HENSOLDT CFO - Christian Ladurner.
LVS NNbS project
With an order value of almost 300 million euros, the LVS NNbS project plays an important role. It will provide the Bundeswehr with a state-of-the-art system to protect ground troops in action and to safeguard command posts and properties against threats from the air.
All business units from the HENSOLDT portfolio - Radar, Optronics, Spectrum Dominance, and Services - are involved.
TRML-4D radars
HENSOLDT will supply about 70 SPEXER air defense radars for use in the new Skyranger 30 anti-aircraft gun tank
As part of an order from Diehl Defence worth more than 100 million euros, HENSOLDT is also supplying its high-performance TRML-4D radars, including a maintenance and training package, to Latvia and Slovenia.
In addition, HENSOLDT will supply about 70 SPEXER air defense radars for use in the new Skyranger 30 anti-aircraft gun tank (FlakPz). The order is worth a further 100 million euros.
sensor technology
In addition, support for Ukraine continues to take center stage. HENSOLDT is once again equipping helicopters of the Ukrainian armed forces with state-of-the-art detection and self-protection sensor technology.
The order includes further AMPS (Airborne Missile Protection System) self-protection solutions. The order value is in the double-digit million range.
electronic systems for defense
"Sensor solutions and electronic systems are indispensable for effective defense," says HENSOLDT CFO, Christian Ladurner.
Christian Ladurner adds, "We now have over 80 radars under contract for ESSI alone. With the acquisition of ESG, we are accelerating the development of HENSOLDT as a solution provider and expect significant order intake in the second half of the year."
