The Defence Technological and Industrial Bases is indispensable for maintaining peace and security. After all, it provides an armed force with services and equipment. If it does not, the armed forces are left hobbled. This also applies to the Dutch armed forces. Nevertheless, the defence and security sector is experiencing difficulties in accessing private finance. Referring to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) criteria, companies in the sector would not be able to access private financing from pension institutions, insurers and financial service providers. Because of the same criteria, the sector is experiencing difficulties in opening accounts with private banks. Below is summary on the current state of the issue.

For UAVs requiring both high-accuracy positioning and robust communication, Harxon’s compact, multifunctional helix antennas, such as the HX-CUX005A and HX-CUX618A, provide an integrated solution. Combining GNSS, WiFi, and Bluetooth antennas, these models deliver centimeter-level positioning alongside reliable data transmission across 2.4GHz, 5.8GHz, and 7.2GHz bands. The advanced inter-system design ensures exceptional signal clarity by effectively minimizing mutual interference, making them ideal for demanding UAV applications.

The PolarFire FPGA and PolarFire SoC families already deliver the industry’s best thermal and power efficiency in the mid-range segment. Optimized for deploying systems with high-compute performance in small form factors, the families have reduced the size and weight of power-constrained systems in applications including industrial imaging, robotics, AI-enabled medical systems and smart defense and aerospace systems.

Whether satellites, spacecraft or space debris – GESTRA, the "German Experimental Surveillance and Tracking Radar", is a state-of-the-art radar system for observing and tracking objects in space. It operates in the microwave range and explores the Low Earth Orbit of 300 to 3,000 kilometres, i.e. the range in which most satellites and the International Space Station (ISS) are located. This makes it possible, for example, to protect space systems or the ISS from a collision with debris particles by providing a timely warning. Millions of tiny particles orbit the earth and, at a speed of around 28,000 km/h, pose a threat to active space technologies. GESTRA was developed and built by the Fraunhofer Institute for High Frequency Physics and Radar Techniques FHR on behalf of the German Space Agency at DLR.
