Army Recognition, official media partner of Defence and Security Thailand 2019, is in Bangkok
0:28
and this is the first day of the Defence exhibition that covers a wide range of land, navy and
0:34
air topics. It's really, really interesting for many, many Defence delegations to cover this exhibition
1:58
My name is Colonel Chachapongphapriyak
2:07
I'm the business development director and the other position I take care in charge of
2:14
the project director of 8x8 armour vehicle in DTI. This one you see, this one is the BTR-3 Command Staff
2:23
In the class of this vehicle we call the Armour Command Support Carrier
2:27
We will use this one in the battalion, the infantry battalion in the Army
2:36
The Army has the DTI-3 already but they have only the infantry fighting vehicle
2:44
But for us, when the Army needs new equipment or new armour vehicle, they come to DTI to
2:51
make us support this. And we make it the BTR-3 Command Staff
2:57
Inside that for the command and staff to control the unit in the field
3:03
Inside we have the battlefield management system like a C5I can command control the
3:10
other vehicle. For the new generation, we don't use only the radio to control the system but we use
3:19
the battlefield management system to control our troops because when the rear, you get
3:27
in the vehicle, you have only the radio. You cannot control anyone
3:32
You can go by yourself. For this one that I explain to you outside, the battlefield management system or the C5I
3:44
we use the Thales radio and the system from the Thales. This is like a demo
3:52
For the commander, for the staff, G1, G3, G4 and the two guys over there
3:59
And we have the driver and gunner. That means the real picture from the other vehicle, we can share each other, not only
4:10
the radio now. Now we send like data and everything can be seen in real time
4:20
For example, you can see the movement of the vehicle. They can go
4:26
For this one, the standard of the BTR-3, they have the armor bar protection
4:32
This one can protect the RPG. Right? The RPG, when the RPG come, they will feel to operate here
4:40
The small one cannot destroy the vehicle. The other thing, you can see the high antenna
4:48
That one, we can make this like a signal, signal the signal section for the battalion
4:56
Or when you need to extend, you can use this one with the UAV something
5:02
We decide because we call this BTR-3 command staff. That means you can control everything and indicate everything inside that
5:30
My name is Amaury Deponcin and I'm the regional director, sales regional director for Asia
5:36
Pacific at Nexter. Nexter is a company of KNDS Group. Nexter is a French leader in land defense systems
5:49
And Nexter is the prime contractor of the Scorpion program in France that delivers the
5:56
full range of vehicles, armored vehicles to the French Armed Forces. Nexter is also a supplier to the Royal Thai Army
6:06
We have six of our Cesar 6x6 vehicles in service in Thailand, as well as production lines for
6:17
ammunitions with the Weapon Production Center. As I said, Thailand is one of our major customers in the region
6:29
We also have a large fleet of 105 guns in service in the Royal Thai Army
6:36
The purpose of our presence today is to show dedication to the Royal Thai Army and to the
6:44
Thai customers and to provide them with nice solutions for digitization of the equipment
6:52
in service, but also new maintenance and training systems thanks to virtual reality
7:00
technology that is displayed on our booth. Last but not least, we are also exhibiting our robotics activity with the Nerva system
7:13
that offers nice solutions for tactical forces, for security forces in the region and in Thailand
7:20
in particular. Okay, so I'm Thierry Renaudin, CEO of Johncock Hill Defense
7:47
This is Abraham Moses, who is the CEO of PT Pindad, our partner in Indonesia, for this
7:54
tank, this Arimo tank, for which we are ready to sign a letter of intention of 18 105 turrets
8:05
Johncock Hill Defense has been supporting the Ministry of Defense of Indonesia for many
8:12
years now, more than 10 years. We started in the early 2000 years with the delivery of 22 CSC90 turrets on the PT Pindad vehicle
8:25
And now we are moving to another part of this collaboration with the delivery of this 3105
8:34
turrets on the PT Pindad chassis. The other side of our collaboration in Indonesia is with PT Lundin
8:44
We've been designing with PT Lundin catamaran which will support our turrets, either a 105
8:52
turret as it is in this moquette or a 30 millimeter turret
8:57
We are already in the process of delivering a turret that will be implemented on this
9:03
catamaran which is designed by PT Lundin by April of this year
9:09
And this is right? Yes, that's right. And I can say this is a full carbon fiber hull, 20 meter
9:16
So we have the capability to take up to 60 troops, shallow water, water jet propulsion
9:22
up to 40 knots. So we believe this for the littoral, for riverine and for fire support roles in countries, other
9:32
nations like Indonesia, this will be a very useful gap filler between the big boats and
9:38
other assets. So we think this has been missing. So we hope together with the good cooperation with Pindad and John Cockerill, we come up
9:46
with a very unique product that hopefully also will be able for the export market in
9:52
the future. This is the drone project that is linked to the tank boat project
10:16
And we have seen in the, for this type of operation, riverine and fire support operations
10:22
that we need a rugged drone that is marinized. So we are now developing a drone together with a tank boat projects with about 40 minutes
10:32
endurance and 10 kilometer range to support the tank boat. So it will have automatic landing and we will be connected to the fire control system with
10:43
the gun and the boat. So this will be very good support. And we believe of course that this type of drone technologies will be very important
10:51
in the future, not only for this type of tank boats, but even tanks in the future
10:56
We need to have eyes in the sky and now the technology allows us to develop something
11:02
special for this boat, but also hopefully for other platforms. So we hope also in this spring that we will test fly and prove this concept with some
11:12
type of integration to the weapons systems. We're working on some, we have some good partners in Scandinavia that we are working very hard
11:20
on this. So we will have the latest technology on board of this
11:24
I cannot really say what it is, but we are of course concerned of jamming and we are
11:30
trying to shield as much of the products as possible for this
11:35
And of course it's not an armed drone, it's eyes in the sky, so it's not critical, but
11:41
we think it's very important both for navigation and for fire support to have a drone and eyes
11:47
to see what happens on the ground, especially in populated areas. So we know where we're aiming and I think this will be great support
11:57
We saw that the drones currently on the market was not organized, was not militarized
12:03
So we wanted a drone that was actually made for the end user
12:07
So we hope we come up with some good technology partners in the Scandinavian countries and
12:13
the production in Indonesia and this tank boat program. We believe that we can come up with something very exciting for this boat and a little bit unique
