Journalists and guests were addressed by Major General Prof. Dr. Bojan Zrnic, Head of Defence Technology Department of the Material Resources Sector, Aleksandar Lijakovic, Assistant Director of the public company Yugoimport SDPR and Mirjana Lukic, Advisor to the Director of the Belgrade Fair.




General Zrnic reminded that this year the 8th International fair of arms and military equipment “Partner 2017” is the event held under the auspices of the Ministry of Defence, in co-organization with the public company Yugoimport SDPR and organization of the Belgrade Fair.

“We are proud of the results which the defence industry has achieved in recent years. Thus the export growth in 2016 is 63 percent larger than in 2015 and totals 483 million US dollars. The year 2015 was also the record in comparison to the previous years. This shows we have a continuous trend of the export growth and therefore the fair “Partner” is very important as a significant tool in the marketing sense of promotion and presentation of the Serbian achievements in this sphere mainly to our, but also to the international audience, as well, in order to preserve that trend and manage to meet all challenges of very demanding competition in the world market”, General Zrnic emphasized.

The Head of Defence Technology Department said that besides the companies of the Serbian Defence Industry Group, which together with Yugoimport represent the basis and backbone of Serbian potential in the sphere of arms and military equipment, the Ministry of Defence has authorized 39 other companies and business entities mainly from the segment of small and medium-sized enterprises as the manufacturers of arms and military equipment expected to attend the upcoming fair.

According to him, besides production capacities, our capacities in the sphere of research and development of arms and military equipment will be represented at the fair. General stated that this year a great number of renowned world exhibitors, as well as more than 30 foreign delegations from ministerial level to expert delegations are expected at the fair.

Assistant Director of the public company Yugoimport SDPR Aleksandar Lijakovic talked about how much Yugoimport contributes to the quality of arms and military equipment display. He said that Yugoimport had joined this fair in 2004, when it was the national display, and today it represents an important event at regional level by the number of exhibitors and delegations visiting it.

Lijakovic said that this year the assets which have been in production for many years, mainly the artillery ones like Nora B-52 system and others which are the result of their development capacity like “Lazar” will be exhibited at the fair of arms and military equipment. Some new assets exhibited at the arms fair “IDEX 2017” will be exhibited, and the national audience will have a chance to see something completely new, which is going to be the surprise for all visitors of the fair.

Assistant Director of the public company Yugoimport SDPR stressed that after several years the Ministry of Interior and Serbian Armed Forces have started equipping with the assets from Yugoimport development, which leads to the improvement of their combat readiness.

Mirjana Lukic, Advisor to the Director of the Belgrade Fair, reminded of the significant data, which show the growing trend of the development of this event – 23 exhibitors participated in the fair in 2004, then each 2 years more of them – 40, 62, 74, 88 until the number of 116 exhibitors, who took part in the arms and military equipment fair two years ago.

“We expect the event of a larger scope than we had so far with a greater number of novelties, more international exhibitors, with greater interest of media and larger number of international delegations”, Mirjana Lukic stressed.

This year the arms and military equipment fair “Partner” will be held from 27th until 30th June in two halls of the Belgrade Fair – I and IV.

Airtech Systems at Partner 2017

New stealth vessel M-RIB 17.5 from Serbian Company Airtech Systems at Partner 2017.
Serbian Company Airtech Systems presents a new concept of stealth vessel offering new naval superiority and multi functionality through most difficult and demanding missions. Called M-RIB 17, it is a modern, fast and low RCS (radar cross section) and heavily armed green and brown water vessel designed to perform patrol, combat and command craft missions.

stealth_vessel_640_001.jpg

Scale model of the new stealth vessel M-RIB 17 designed by the Serbian Company Airtech Systems at Partner 2017, the International Fair of Armaments and Defense Equipment in Belgrade, Serbia.

The stealth technology of the M-RIB 17 is based on a new handrails-angular design, cabin and freeboard-form and tubus-bumpers. It also used special RAM (radar absorbing material) coatings, TRSC (thermal signature reduction coating), smart and big cooling system combined with jet propulsion to reduce thermal footprint, and finally special texture surfaces.

Vessel is constructed to eliminate radar and weapon recognition and positioning by application of three technologies, RRCS reduced radar cross section, RAM radar absorbing material and IR stealth infrared invisible.

The M-RIB 17.5 is equipped with two diesel engines Rolls Royce MTU 1600HP and two Rolls Royce Kamewa jet propulsion systems. It has two tanks, place below main deck in double bottom. Both tanks are equipped with electric level indicators with level gauge in helm position.

Fresh water for cooling system will be taken from four intake strainers, two for each engine. Engine room hatches are "Twin-layer" constructed to be liquid cooled by flow or fresh water which results in lower thermal footprint. Muffler for exhaust gases is constructed to suppress noise and thermal footprint as much as possible.

Hull, cabin and deck of this vessel is manufactured from high quality marine grade aluminum and carbon materials, reinforced with aramid fibers and bulletproof, strengthened panel composite structure in the walls. Space between inner and outer hull and tubes are filled with special foam which makes this boat unsinkable.

The front of the vessel can be fitted with a remotely operated weapon station armed with a 12.7mm heavy machine gun mounted on a hydraulic platform which can be lowered inside the boat. The rear part of the vessel can be fitted with missile launcher station.
