Présentation
Les nations individuelles et les alliances militaires internationales se préparent à développer leurs capacités, notamment dans le domaine de la défense antimissile. Thales est le seul groupe européen capable de fournir aux forces armées une gamme complète de solutions, depuis le simple avertissement jusqu'à la neutralisation des menaces, et ce à tous les niveaux, depuis les systèmes à très courte portée jusqu'à des systèmes de défense aérienne élargie.
- Très courte portée : Le missile LMM (Lightweight Multi-role Missile) est un missile de frappe haute précision léger et peu coûteux, qui a été conçu pour être tiré depuis des plates-formes tactiques, comme des drones à voilure fixe ou tournante et des plates-formes de surface. Le système vise à apporter une réaction rapide à un large éventail de menaces de surface (véhicules à roues et à chenilles, artillerie remorquée ou installations statiques), de menaces navales (petits bâtiments et embarcations d'attaque côtière rapides) et de menaces aériennes (avions légers)
- Portée moyenne : Choisi en 2003 par la France et l'Italie pour la protection des forces expéditionnaires contre les engins atmosphériques non balistiques et les missiles balistiques, le système SAMP/T a été déclaré opérationnel en 2008. Membre d'Eurosam en partenariat avec MBDA, Thales a développé l'unité de commande de tir du système SAMP/T et participe à l'élaboration des composants électroniques Aster (tête chercheuse, fusée de proximité). Le système SAMP/T est désormais intégré dans la première architecture ALTBMD (Active Layer Theatre Ballistic Missile Defence) de l'OTAN.
- Composants électroniques de missiles : Thales est le premier fournisseur européen de sous-systèmes électroniques pour les missiles et les munitions guidées avec précision. Le groupe fournit des équipements et des services aux clients du monde entier. Ses compétences couvrent la conception, le développement et la production de têtes chercheuses hautes performances et de fusées de proximité.

Generic rocket systems
Generic (2’’75) rocket systems, an international standard rocket systems for all armed Forces
- We offer international standard rocket systems in service in more than 30 NATO and other countries (2.75’’ calibre also called 70 mm)
- Operational on more than 300 aircraft and helicopters, this rocket system is equipped with maintainable lightweight composite launchers with removable detents
- This rocket system provides full range of rocket types offering extended range and terminal efficiency.
- Associated large portfolio of ammunition covers various rocket motors and warhead types including laser guided rocket under development.
Induction rocket systems
Induction Rocket Systems (IRS), a new standard with new operational benefits.
- The second generation induction rocket systems delivers deep protection and attack solution for all platform types and to the highest NATO standard .
- They offering unprecedented levels of accuracy and safety (no Foreign Object Damages, Hero/Hirf, no misfire, no hangfire) and they are impossible to repurpose as IEDs . Loading is easy with no tools , by just one operator and maintenance is minimal
- The solution includes the family of rocket launchers (Ranging from 2 to 22 tubes) and the induction rockets, including an ‘in-flight’ programmable laser guided rockets.
- The Thales mortars are masterpieces of modern industrial technology. Since the times of Edgar Brandt, the company has built thousands of mortars of different calibres and delivered millions of mortar shells to a lot of different armed forces.
- Thales rifled and smooth-tube mortar systems offer unrivalled build quality. They have an undetermined lifetime and, in theory at least, will last forever.
- The weapons can be remanufactured multiple times and are designed to accommodate the latest technical improvements to maximise ease of operation.
Rifled recoiled Mounted Mortar system - 2R2M
- Mounted on various types of armoured carriers, the 120 mm 2R2M is fully protected while on the move and ready to fire as soon as the vehicle stops.
- It can fire 10 rounds within one minute, with improved accuracy compared to the RT towed version, and can then start moving and close the top doors at the same time
- The 120 mm 2R2M weapon system is suitable for various types of wheeled or tracked armoured vehicles.
- Various countries including Italy, Oman or Malaysia have already chosen the 120 mm 2R2M to equip their elite troops.
120 RT
- The 120 mm RT entered service with French artillery units in the mid-1990s and has been considered an artillery weapon system since that time.
- Its robustness, reliability and light logistical footprint have made the 120 mm RT the leading artillery fire support system deployed on expeditionary operations.
- With a maximum range of 8-13 km, tactical units can maneuver safely, relying on an effective indirect fire support capability that can easily be integrated into a complete artillery chain of command.
- The 120 RT is in service in 25 countries, among them five NATO member nations.
81 mm
- The Mo 81 mm LLR has been committed many times in military campaigns overseas.
- It is also a weapon 'Combat Proven' in particularly difficult conditions (especially in Afghanistan, in Mali and, now, in Central African Republic (CRA) and on which Infantrymen can rely every time and under every climate.
- Very easy to use, the Mo 81 mm LLR is also very precise and very efficient...
The F90 is a military rifle designed to perform in the world’s toughest environments. The F90 delivers accuracy, reliability and adaptability for the modern war fighter.
Capability
- The F90 is one of the lightest assault rifles on the market at 3.25 kg, enabling fast reaction times and rapid target acquisition, a clear advantage in close quarters combat. NATO standard rails and NATO ammunition interoperability provide adaptability for a wide range of mission profiles.
- Packing a punch, the F90 includes an integrated side loading 40 mm grenade launcher that can be attached in just a few seconds by the soldier – a potentially decisive capability providing flexibility on operations. The grenade launcher itself is equipped with a lightweight robust quadrant sight that ensures rapid target acquisition, can be used at night, and is compatible with night vision goggles.

Thales’s 5.56 mm, 7.62 mm and .50 calibre ammunition meets design parameters of the NATO STANAG requirements. It can be used in all 5.56 mm, 7.62 mm and .50 cal calibre NATO weapons, and is comparable to other in-service natures such as the FN SS109, US M855, M193 and US M80 ball cartridges.
Capability
Thales ammunition employs a specifically designed single base propellant with very low temperature coefficient of ballistics to ensure velocities and pressures remain consistent within variations in ammunition temperature (-54 C to + 80 C). The propellant is primarily nitrocellulose with added stabiliser and ballistic moderants. The propellant has extreme clean burning characteristics and is an excellent replacement for propellants exhibiting weapon fouling. The projectile comprises of a hardened penetrator and a lead slug enclosed in a gilding metal jacket. The ammunition can be shipped in packages conforming to UN recommendations for packaging of dangerous goods. The packages are classified as Hazard Division 1.4S, UN Number 0012, Proper Shipping Name – Cartridges for Weapons, Small Arms.
