Singapore’s ST Engineering Land Systems division Hirtenberger Defence Systems (HDS) signed an agreement on 12 June to co-operate on 120 mm mortar systems.
Under the agreement, HDS’s UK branch will market ST Engineering’s 120 mm Super Rapid Advanced Mortar Systems (SRAMS), which will be combined with HDS’s Arc-Fire mortar fire control system and 120 mm mortar ammunition.
The teaming also covers collaboration on potential work with third-party vehicle manufacturers at the request of customers to integrate the SRAMS system onto a vehicle, with HDS seeing an increase in demand from customers and the market for mobile and vehicle-mounted mortar systems.
