Taktische Flugabwehrfähigkeiten in der Bundeswehr, Was kommt nach Roland, Gepard, Ozelot? Einstellungen

[Praetorian]

Als Anlaufpunkt für alle Diskussionen zu diesem Themenkomplex.

Nach dem Dahinsiechen von SysFla wird es auf Vorhabenebene jetzt wieder konkreter. Bis Mai 2017 sollen die Fähigkeitsforderungen für ein Flugabwehrraketensystem kurzer Reichweite stehen, an Mitteln sind mittelfristig 460 Millionen Euro vorgesehen, zuzüglich rundum 2 Milliarden Euro in einer späteren Phase. Laserkomponenten und erweiterte Sensortechnik wären Wachstumsbereiche, die aber zusätzlich finanziert werden müssten. Spekuliert wird über Varianten von IRIS-T SL/SLS als Angebot von Diehl (analog zu dem System für Schweden, mit Bv206/BvS10 als Trägerfahrzeug) und NASAMS II als Angebot von Raytheon. Eine Entscheidung wird nicht vor 2018 erwartet.

Germany is nearing a decision to replace its aging short-range air defense systems and help fill a gap that has caused concern among NATO members after Russia's annexation of Crimea, two sources familiar with the issue said. A decision to move ahead would pave the way for a procurement program valued at 460 million euros through the middle of the next decade, with 2 billion euros in further spending likely in a later phase, said one of the sources. New lasers and radars could be added later at additional cost. A spokesman said the Defence Ministry had taken an initial look at the issue but had not yet made a decision about how to proceed.
One of the sources said officials had a favorable view of a system developed for Sweden by Diehl Defense, a privately held German weapons maker, which includes a variant of its IRIS-T missile and a dual-cab tracked vehicle built by Hagglunds Vehicle AB, a unit of BAE Systems.

Current plans call for Germany to buy new equipment for short- and extremely-short range air defense for all 16 of its existing fire units, according to one of the sources.
U.S. weapons maker Raytheon Co builds an alternative to Diehl's system called Network Centric Air Defence System together with Norway's Kongsberg Gruppen, which has been sold to Norway, Spain, the Netherlands, the United States, Finland, Oman and an undisclosed country, according to Raytheon's website.
