Thales and Rosoboronexport sign contract for supply of Catherine FC cameras for Russian Army
Category: Defence Industry
This contract constitutes a first for western equipment to qualify for the Russian Army. Thales has signed a contract with Rosoboronexport for the delivery of around 100 Catherine FC thermal imaging cameras for the Russian Army. Recently qualified for deployment with the Russian armed forces - a first in Russia for Western equipment - the Catherine FC thermal imaging cameras will be integrated on T-90 armoured vehicles. This contract further reinforces Thales's position as a partner to Russian industry in the field of defence optronics for land forces - a position achieved after many years of cooperation on export contracts. It also marks a decisive step forward in Thales's commitment to extend its position in the Russian defence market and to step up cooperation and investment with local industry. |
