Denel’s Malaysian Contract Delayed
28 Januari 2017
Denel received the R3.7 billion contract in 2011 to develop,
manufacture, supply, deliver and commission the turrets. The contract requires
industrial participation in Malaysia and as a result the production and
assembly are taking place in that country.
In its latest annual report, Denel noted that, “The contract
execution has been extended by two years to nine years due to the economic
situation in the end-user country.”
The Malaysian contract, the largest export contract in
Denel’s history, is seeing Denel Land Systems responsible for 69 two man
turrets fitted with the South African GI30 30mm main gun; 54 missile turrets
equipped with the GI30 30mm gun and Denel Dynamics Ingwe anti-tank missile
system (the order also includes the supply of 216 laser-guided Ingwe missiles);
and 54 remote control weapons systems.
Manufacturing of the turrets grew out of Denel Land System’s
development of the Badger infantry combat vehicle on behalf of the South
African Army.
