HELLENIC SHIPYARDS S.A. http://www.hellenic-shipyards.gr
Hellenic Shipyards S.A. is the largest shipyard in the area of the eastern Mediterranean. It stands worldwide for its outstanding experience in building and repairing naval and commercial ships. Founded over fifty years ago, Hellenic Shipyards S.A. is now part of the TKMS Group, and has moved into the high technology end of the business with the construction of the most advanced conventional submarines in the world.
http://www.hellenic-shipyards.gr/images/extras/naval/naval-gener_BIG.jpg
Frigates MEKO 200 ® HN Hydra Class
In co-operation with Blohm + Voss - one of the world’s leading naval shipbuilders - Hellenic Shipyards built and successfully delivered in the period from 1996 to 1998, 3 Frigates to the Hellenic Navy. These advanced vessels incorporated state-of-the-art equipment and electronic and weapons systems with variable payload standardized modules.


In compliance with the specific needs of the Hellenic Navy, the Hydra Class Frigates have been equipped with a helicopter incl. Hangar as well as with the respective sensors and weapons for an effective defense of air, surface and underwater targets.

Fast Patrol Boats /Gunboats
HSY has developed the design for a fast patrol boat according to the specific needs of the Hellenic Navy (Pyrpolitis Class) and successfully delivered in 1993/94, 2 Fast Patrol Boats. Having further improved the HSY design in order to comply with the rules of Germanischer Lloyd and also to implement a new combat suite, in 1999 the Hellenic Navy awarded the building of another 4 Gunboats (Machitis Class) to Hellenic Shipyards. These four boats have also been successfully delivered, to the full satisfaction of the Hellenic Navy.

S-Class Frigates modernisation



In 2003 Hellenic Shipyards in co-operation with Thales Netherlands was awarded the status of prime contractor for the Midlife Modernization of 6 S-Class Frigates of the Hellenic Navy. The program is in progress at HSY and will be completed in 2009.
The main modernization works to be performed are the following:

• Replacement of the combat management system and installation of new sensors
• Overhaul and improvement of radars
• Replacement of navigation systems and upgrade of communications systems
• Replacement of propulsion control system and of defined platform systems.

http://www.hellenic-shipyards.gr/images/extras/naval/S-CLASS_BIG.jpg

Submarines' Programs


In February 2000 HSY undertook as Prime Contractor the procurement of four (4) class 214 Submarines.


This is the most advanced conventional submarine in the world and the Greek State was the first in the world to order it. The contract award provided for the building of the first submarine at HDW’s Kiel yard and for the building of the other three (3) submarines in Greece at HSY premises.


Submarine construction at HSY started in 2002-following the investments for the creation of the necessary infrastructure- while the first Kiel-built submarine, named PAPANIKOLIS was launched in Kiel, Germany on April 2004.


Further to the class 214 Program, in 2002, HSY was also awarded by HMOD the contract for the Mid Life Modernization and repair of three (3) type 209 HN Submarines (Neptune II Program).

The Class 214 Program


The Class 214 Submarines meet all modern requirements with respect to operations in coastal as well as in deep water areas, having:



• Increased underwater endurance through the use of the proven fuel cell system for AIP propulsion
• Increased diving depth and overall performance efficiency, through specially built hull and advanced weapons systems.
• Minimized acoustic, thermal and magnetic signatures.



In the HSY Steel Assembly Hall shipbuilding works on the Pressure Hull Sections are performed for the three (3) Class 214 Submarines, under construction for the Hellenic Navy.


In the HSY Submarine Outfitting Hall, work is in progress on the platforms and on the Pressure Hull Sections.


After the completion of the outfitting of the individual Sections, these will be joined together.


The Greek METKA company is an approved partner to which hull-related work has been outsourced. Two other Greek companies also carry out significant work for the submarines, namely GERMANOS - that provides the batteries - and MOTOMARINE - that builds parts of the GRP system. Smaller scale work is done by other Greek companies


This outsourcing, within the framework of the off-sets agreement, furthers the effort to spread in the Greek business community the benefits from the transfer of technology and contributes both to the maintenance of existing and to the creation of new jobs.


The contract will be completed in the year 2010 and more than 650 highly qualified personnel are being employed.



In greater detail the main characteristics of the class 214 submarines are the following:

• Overall length: approx. 65 m
• Height: approx. 13 m
• Pressure hull diameter: approx. 6.3 m
• Surface displacement: approx. 1700 tn
• Crew: 27 (+8)
• Pressure hull: ferromagnetic steel
• Integrated Sonar and Weapon Control system (ISUS 90)

• 8 full-size swim-out tubes in the bulkhead for all types of torpedoes (4 tubes equipped with a weapon expulsion system for missiles).

• Propulsion motor: PERMASYN
• Fuel cell system: PEM
• Integrated Radio Communication and navigation systems

http://www.hellenic-shipyards.gr/images/extras/SUBmarine/sumb3_BIG(CLASS214).jpg
The Neptune II Program


The most significant of the upgrades to be performed on the three (3) Type 209 HN Submarines, entails the installation of the new and modern Fuel Cell Section.


The Air Independent Propulsion (AIP) is one of the recent innovations that have captured the attention and won the admiration of the submarine world. After lengthy studies and discussions it is now the accepted wisdom that the fuel cell systems are the ideal solution for air independent propulsion of conventional (i.e. non-nuclear) submarines. The main reason is that they meet the highest demands in terms of ensuring both an extremely efficient energy conversion and the lowest possible signatures.


Repair works on the first of the three (3) type 209 Hellenic Navy Submarines to be modernized started in November 2004.

METALLON TECHNOLOGIES S.A http://www.metal-tech.gr
METKA S.A http://www.metka.gr
METKA began its activity in the Defence sector by undertaking the fabrication of the hull of the armored vehicle "LEONIDAS" in 1995.
The Defence sector became a strategic choice after the Company's management was taken over by the Mytilineos Group. METKA’s Industrial activity was largely based on the significant machine equipment of METKA’s two (2) plants, as well as the advanced know-how of the existing workforce. At the same time, new machinery of value more than €15,000,000 was bought, and investment on new specialized personnel was made. The undertaking of important projects and METKA's acknowledgement in the demanding area of defence equipment manufacture was the result of those actions.
METKA's plants at Volos have ensured considerable work of high added value until 2009, and prospects for the future are very favorable.

SPIDER S.A http://www.spidersa.com
Since 1976, Spider is being activated in the area of sub-constructions and defensive material, in collaboration with the Ministry of National Defense and the big Greek defensive industries (such as ELBO,EBO, PYRKAL, etc).

The materials produced are mainly packing boxes and amunition parts (loading dispensers, loading clips, grenade cones, steel cases, etc), vehicle parts (coaches, jeep, covers, door chassis, etc) as well as materials for war tanks (tracks and ground wheels, cogwheels and shoring up wheels). The strict technical specifications required for the construction of such materials give evidence for the credibility of Spider.

On the basis of the experience and the know-how already gained, along with the development of armament programs by the Ministry of National Defense, for the supplying of the Greek Army with Greek products, and for obliging the foreign suppliers to offer compensating avails and self-sufficient consuming materials, the company is expected to increase its activities in this particular area, significantly.

UAV TARGET SYSTEMS
EADS 3SIGMA S.A http://www.eads-3sigma.gr/
Since the beginning of its establishment, EADS 3 SIGMA has been focused in the design, development, production and services provision of Unmanned Target Systems. Among the company's clients, one can find a variety of Armed Forces worldwide, as well as several Air Defense companies who have been using our services in several European Firing Ranges.

To meet the Airborne Breathing Threat representation requirements in the most reliable, realistic and cost-effective manner, two basic concepts have been followed throughout the company's history:

The "Target Family Systems" and
The "Target to be Killed" concept.
The two families of target systems (IRIS & PERSEAS), with commonalities in the aerial platforms, the launcher and the airborne and ground electronics, covering the entire subsonic performance, allow for low manufacturing, operational and maintenance costs.

This results to the provision of a complete target solution to the end user with drones, which are dispensable cost wise, but vital with respect to the increased demands of tactical training and Air Defense weapon testing scenarios

http://www.eads-3sigma.gr/company/images/comp.jpg

PRODUCTS
http://www.eads-3sigma.gr/products/ground/images/gcs.jpg

"ENIOCHOS" the Ground Control Station (GCS), common for all aerial targets and UAV systems, includes all hardware required for single and multiple in number and type target missions.
The whole package can also be installed into a shelter of the client's preference or in a Range Control Building (RCB) or Operations room. The GCS is constructed in such a way to ensure electromagnetic shielding, as well as safety and comfort during operations and is air-conditioned. Two video monitors provide visual contact with the launching area.

The GCS is capable of simultaneously operating up to eight drones (four by each GCU), launched simultaneously or with selectable time difference.

Targets can be set to totally different patterns on the area map. All parameters can be altered and/or adjusted for each individual Target (altitude, speed, payload activation, way points, etc.) at any point during the mission.

Each set of the drone's data, is transmitted through the telemetry airborne package link to the GCS, and continuously displayed in real time through the exciting monitors.

The operating modes can vary between auto, semi-auto or manual control. Each mode is independently selected for each and every drone at any stage of the mission. The above features combined with a continuous Background Flight evaluation program, allows for a selectable number of operators.

PRODUCTS / MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEMS
http://www.sonak.gr/manager/topimage.asp?ID=45
Over the years SONAK has delivered a number of MIS applications for the computerization of various departments of the Hellenic Ministry of Defense such as personnel departments, logistics organizations and military depots.

These applications are designed, developed and delivered, along with the required hardware, on a “turn-key” basis. SONAK engineers record all the end-user requirements and develop the application, mostly based on relational database, which fully automates the processes of the concerned service.

One of the programs awarded to SONAK in this field is the computerization of the General Secretariat for Financial Planning and Defense Investments, which is the pertinent authority for the Hellenic defense procurements. This project has started in 2000 and since then is continuously growing in scope as a result of this organization’s growth.


PRODUCTS / WEAPONS OVERHAUL
http://www.sonak.gr/manager/topimage.asp?ID=39
SONAK has implemented a significant investment in facilities and equipment, which today allows the performance of overhaul activities for major weapon systems.

The efforts that are undertaken include the disassembly of the systems’ major items to the lowest level, to allow inspection, structural evaluation and corrosion detection, elimination and prevention. Parts that are either obsolete or beyond rework, are replaced, while the remaining are remanufactured on site. After reassembly, all items undergo inspection and "new-built" standard functional and structural testing.

The end result is a System, having the performance characteristics and functionality, of a System built from all-new components.

Remanufacturing operations performed by SONAK, include: parts / items Disassembly & Assembly, Systems Mechanical / Electrical /Hydraulic rework, Machine Shop processes, Welding, Surface treatments, Delamination repair and CARC painting.

Main program under implementation is today the HAWK Missile System Overhaul, undertaken by Raytheon Systems who provided all the required know-how, technology and training.


PRODUCTS / AMMUNITION FUZES
http://www.sonak.gr/manager/topimage.asp?ID=42
Fuse, is a mechanic, electric, electronic, magnetic device, or combination, which activates the charge of ammunition in the desirable time and conditions.

In 2004, Sonak decided to fully absorb the Defense Company Tekson S.A. This company is specialized in the design, development and production of fuses, an activity that now is continued by SONAK. The company has developed and produces fuses for various types of ammunition such as the 155mm and 4.2'' mortar ammunition.

SONAK plans to further invest to this activity through the development of electronic fuses. The Company’s know-how in the electronics field will play a significant role to this effort.

PRODUCTS / DECOYS
http://www.sonak.gr/manager/topimage.asp?ID=46
Confusion of enemy sensor systems by using phantom vehicles and in particular tanks and howitzers has been used in recent conflicts extensively with significant success.

In order a decoy to simulate a target and not to be discriminated with presently used sensors the decoy target should be close to the emissions and radar cross section of the real target such as a tank or a howitzer.

SONAK develops, under contract, tank and howitzer decoys for the Hellenic Armed Forces. Upon successful completion of the development stage, SONAK will deliver to the Hellenic Army 160 decoys for various types of tanks and howitzers existing in the Hellenic arsenal.



Main Features:
Light-weight
Rapid deployment
Easy transportation and storage
Simulation of real tank’s and howitzer’s electromagnetic and IR signatures
Visual simulation of the real target

INTERMAT DEFENCE COATINGS

http://www.intermat.gr

Intermat is a company providing Special countermeasure Anti Thermal/ IR coatings against Thermal Threat


MODULATED PERFORMANCE ANTI THERMAL / IR COATINGS
We offer you the possibility to truly enhance your power with our low-cost force-multiplier solution. Your aim is not a mere optical simulation with the surrounding environment (conventional camouflage), and your aim is definitely not to be partially unidentifiable from night vision systems (light amplifiers etc). Intermat is here so that you can fully adapt to the environment in which you operate, (even when under way or by indoor activity), and not being visible during day or night even from the most modern ground, air, or satellite IR systems (NVGs, FLIRs, Rec Satellites).

Consequently not only you increase survivability of your assets, installations, and personnel, but furthermore you force the enemy to approach much closer in order to fullfill their mission, which makes them vulnerable.
This technology represents not only a very economic force multiplier, but signifies a unique opportunity in the defence industry. In effect our coatings neutralize to a very large extend the developed technology of infrared sensors.



Our products are in full compliance with NATO’s Standardization Agreement 4319

Counter-Surveillance Requirements for Future Main Battle Tanks – Infrared / Thermal Aspects

This agreement standardizes the specifications which set the guidelines for limiting the thermal/IR signature for passive counter-surveillance, camouflage, and concealment for all Main Battle Tanks for fielding by the year 2000 and beyond, in the Thermal Infrared Threat Waveband of 1.9 – 14 microns.

Intermat entirely fulfills all criteria of this agreement. Intermat coatings not only do they protect you at the wide IR spectrum of 0.4 to 20 microns but also fully conforms to all definitions that form the corner-stone of this agreement.



Lets see some of their products and how good they are!

Is the Greek army adopting the british helmet now?

http://www.intermat.gr/uploads/gallery/2005010923035.jpg

[GREEK71AIRBORNE]

This photo is from a companys demonstration.
The Greek Army uses 2 types of Helmets.
The old one (sory i dont know the type)
http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/6656/omoioma719pj.jpg

And the "Kevlar" Helmets used by Special Forces

I like the way the helicopter mock-up has NH90 on it.. :-)

All I asked about the helmet was that it is a british mk6 on the further above pic..

The Mk6 is used in limited numbers by the Hellenic Navy. The Hellenic Army uses the old M-1 steel helmet and the PASGT (both US and Israeli models by Rabintex wich use different style of straps) There are also many RBR kevlar helmets (PASGT F5 and F6). Now the Hellenic Army is completely replasing the M-1 with a british helmet by the company that bought RBR(can't remember the name-sorry)

Edit: Got it!
