Summary/Abstract |
eurosatory, Europe's premier land and E marine defence show, wound up on a sober note given the general downturn in the world economy and lower defence budgets in America and Europe. Looking only at Europe, defence spending appears largely confined to the UK, France and Germany. There too, the budgets have been squeezed in an effort to get the most bang for the least buck. Some of the new products on show were a helicopter with a 25mm cannon, a shock absorbing helmet, a mini- jammer and a new medium tank concept. The jammer Solo should be of some interest in India, it weighs about five kilos and can be plugged into a vehicle's 12-volt outlet or a battery pack.
