Paris, 17 April, 2024 - The second amendment of the CAMM-ER (Common Anti-Air Modular Missile – Extended Range) Contract was signed at the OCCAR premises in Paris, France.
The OCCAR-EA Director, Mr. Joachim Sucker, signed this important contractual change on behalf of Italy together with the Managing Director of MBDA Italy Mr. Giovanni Soccodato, for development and implementation of new technical specifications that will increase the operational capabilities of the two systems based on CAMM-ER for the Italian Army and Italian Air Force and their logistics support.
For the Army variant GRIFO, a new development Fire Control unit will be considered with improvements of the command-and-control capabilities of the system.
These new procurement activities will enhance the systems production which OCCAR awarded to MBDA on the 28 November 2022, for the Italian forces and increase with the 1st amendment signed in October 2023.
This is a further development for the FSAF-PAAMS Programme Division, marking yet another stride towards meeting the objectives set out by the Italian MoD.
During his address, the OCCAR Director recognised the high level of energy undertaken by the stakeholders’ community, with special mention of the key contributions made by the Italian MoD, OCCAR-EA (Central Office and FSAF-PAAMS Programme Division) and MBDA.
It is their cooperative dedication and open, supportive spirit that has boosted us toward the achievement of such an important milestone, promoting the interests of the FSAF-PAAMS participating states and solidifying OCCAR commitment to excellence in the air-defence domain.
