Electronics and Electro-Optics
Cell Phone and JPS jammer
The GPS jamming device broadcasts a noisy RF signal in the frequency range reserved for GPS receivers that interferes with the GPS received signal, which results losing the received GPS Information.
GPS jamming device blocks all satellite by transmitting a high power signal at the same frequencies of the GPS.
A GPS jammer prevents a tracking device in the vehicle from determining its location and speed, Law enforcement and military can deploy GPS frequency jamming.

Meals-ready-to-eat
ARM is a food-solutions provider for the defense sector. It manufactures high-quality, convenient Meals Ready-to-Eat (MRE) based on a retort pouch system and provides food catering services to military camps. It is a partnership with Brahim Overseas Ventures, an affiliate of Dewina Holdings, a Malaysian food specialist company. ARM prides itself on its flexibility, bringing a wide range of custom-designed meals that meet its clients› nutritional needs and cater to their culinary preferences as well.
Arab Ready Meals
ARM MREs were designed to succeed out-dated C-Rations (Canned Rations), and utilise state-of-the-art food preparation and storage technology, including sophisticated sterilization techniques.
The technology allows various advantages over C-Rations. Unlike C-Rations, ARM MREs undergo a relatively cool thermal process due to better heat penetration, which arises from a thinner profile. This hugely decreases the possibility of overcooking, and preserves the flavour, texture and condition of the meal. All meals are free of artificial preservatives and monosodium glutamate (MSG).
ADVANTAGES
• MREs formats are easier to handle, and are soft
• MREs are lighter and less bulky than C-Rations, allowing more efficient stockpiling and easier transportation
• MRE containers do not rust nor dent, unlike C-Ration containers
• A thinner profile enables the MRE to be heated faster, and easy-tear packaging allows packets to be opened quickly by hand
DESCRIPTION AND DIMENSIONS
• Individual dishes packed in 4ply, reinforced, nylon-laminated pouches
• Durable, able to withstand ration deployment by airdrop
• Requires no cooking, only reheating
• Pouches weigh from 140 g to 1 kg
• Sizes range from 13 cm x 16 cm to 20 cm x 30 cm
ARM MRE KEY CONSIDERATIONS
• Producing a variety of nutritional packs for military, commercial and other segments, such as humanitarian causes
• Wide range of products to meet nutritional requirements
• Diverse base locations distribute workload; geographical spread improves delivery times and aids against interruption of production
• Shelf-life and packaging integrity
• Flexibility to encourage savings and aid-contingency planning
OFFERED VARIATIONS
• Single Meal Pack Ration: a complete meal consisting of a main meal, dessert, beverage and miscellaneous ancillary
• 24hour Individual Ration Packs: meant to satisfy for 24hours, consisting of two meals, one breakfast item and miscellaneous ancillary
• Ancillary: sugar, coffee, tea, cleaning tissues, scouring pad, waterproof matches, biscuits (customisable with optional equipment)

Meals-ready-to-eat
ARM is a food-solutions provider for the defense sector. It manufactures high-quality, convenient Meals Ready-to-Eat (MRE) based on a retort pouch system and provides food catering services to military camps. It is a partnership with Brahim Overseas Ventures, an affiliate of Dewina Holdings, a Malaysian food specialist company. ARM prides itself on its flexibility, bringing a wide range of custom-designed meals that meet its clients› nutritional needs and cater to their culinary preferences as well.
Arab Ready Meals
ARM MREs were designed to succeed out-dated C-Rations (Canned Rations), and utilise state-of-the-art food preparation and storage technology, including sophisticated sterilization techniques.
The technology allows various advantages over C-Rations. Unlike C-Rations, ARM MREs undergo a relatively cool thermal process due to better heat penetration, which arises from a thinner profile. This hugely decreases the possibility of overcooking, and preserves the flavour, texture and condition of the meal. All meals are free of artificial preservatives and monosodium glutamate (MSG).
ADVANTAGES
• MREs formats are easier to handle, and are soft
• MREs are lighter and less bulky than C-Rations, allowing more efficient stockpiling and easier transportation
• MRE containers do not rust nor dent, unlike C-Ration containers
• A thinner profile enables the MRE to be heated faster, and easy-tear packaging allows packets to be opened quickly by hand
DESCRIPTION AND DIMENSIONS
• Individual dishes packed in 4ply, reinforced, nylon-laminated pouches
• Durable, able to withstand ration deployment by airdrop
• Requires no cooking, only reheating
• Pouches weigh from 140 g to 1 kg
• Sizes range from 13 cm x 16 cm to 20 cm x 30 cm
ARM MRE KEY CONSIDERATIONS
• Producing a variety of nutritional packs for military, commercial and other segments, such as humanitarian causes
• Wide range of products to meet nutritional requirements
• Diverse base locations distribute workload; geographical spread improves delivery times and aids against interruption of production
• Shelf-life and packaging integrity
• Flexibility to encourage savings and aid-contingency planning
OFFERED VARIATIONS
• Single Meal Pack Ration: a complete meal consisting of a main meal, dessert, beverage and miscellaneous ancillary
• 24hour Individual Ration Packs: meant to satisfy for 24hours, consisting of two meals, one breakfast item and miscellaneous ancillary
• Ancillary: sugar, coffee, tea, cleaning tissues, scouring pad, waterproof matches, biscuits (customisable with optional equipment)

As you can see from the above Jordan has developed a fairly robust defense industry in a relatively short span of 20 years. If you have any suggestions or things to say about this thread feel free to comment.
