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.

Safran Electrical & Power offers a wide range of AC & DC contactors & relays designed for aircraft, rotorcraft and harsh environment applications. Multiple voltage levels, ratings, mounting types and auxiliary contact arrangements are available to match any application.

To guarantee maximum safety and reliability, our DA 30 features a brushless motor and a contactless wear-free position sensor. This means maximum service life with the greatest‐possible power delivery and its design prevents electromagnetic emissions (EMI) caused by brush sparking. The housing made of saltwater‐resistant aluminum is HART‐coat treated, meets the IP‐67 standard for water and dust sealing and provides an integrated Sub‐D connector (MIL spec. circular connector or cable gland on request). Brackets integrated in the housing for horizontal and vertical assembly. 8‐fold, ball‐bearing supported, steel gear train, drive shaft with ANSI multi‐tooth. The DA 30 series can be equipped with a standard PWM input (Pulse Width Modulation) that has two different interfaces: a differential, galvanic isolated interface (Opto‐Coupler) and a single‐ended interface with CMOS levels that is also used to program the servo parameters. It includes analog position feedback to detect the drive shaft position. A differential RS‐422 PWM interface can be chosen instead of the opto‐coupled interface. The DA 30 with digital serial command interface (RS‐485) receives its commands via a CRC secured protocol. It can return not only the shaft position in digital format, but also several diagnostic data such as the level of the supply voltage, current consumption and the temperature of the motor and electronics in digital form (optionally also the humidity within the actuator case). These kind of diagnostic capabilities help to determine the health state of the actuators before, during and after deployment.

Capable of a wide 18~32-volt operating range, the robust SG50BL is designed with a high-performance brushless motor, magnetic encoder, and durable, hardened steel gears. It includes CAN 2.0 A/B or DroneCAN (formerly UAVCAN) control options with 360 degrees and multi-turn proportional rotation. Its waterproof 50mm case and monster torque range bring the power and durability required for robotic, automation and commercial applications requiring robust force, precision and installed durability. #UAV #UAS #UAM #UGV #UUV #USV

It is an UAV recovery system that lands a fixed-wing UAV even in mountainous terrain where there is no sufficient runway for landing. Similar to the arresting hook method used to land an aircraft on an aircraft carrier, the UAV is caught by a pendant and braked, and a net is also added in case of an emergency.
