Industry to establish project company for MGCS

KNDS Deutschland, KNDS France, Rheinmetall AG, Rheinmetall Landsysteme and Thales welcome the agreement reached by the French and German governments on MGCS. They see it as an essential milestone in the development of a superior ground combat system for the armed forces of the future.

 

With this in mind, the four companies (KNDS Deutschland, KNDS France, Rheinmetall Landsysteme and Thales) intend to establish a joint project company in order to meet the challenges of such a complex multi-platform system in the best possible and synergetic way. It will act in the spirit of the bilateral Franco-German agreement. The new, innovative "level-pillar approach" for implementation is suitable for ensuring a fair distribution of the workload in a balanced 50:50 ratio between French and German companies, and according to companies‘ complementary technical skills and resources.

In order to implement a contract from 2025, the industry will soon begin negotiations for the project company with the aim of an efficient and targeted implementation.
