Rheinmetall & Intracom Defense to Cooperate on Vehicle C4I Systems

Rheinmetall and Greek company Intracom Defense have announced an agreement to cooperate in the field of vehicle-based C4I systems.

The two companies will coordinate their activities for joint development and marketing of a vehicle-based C4I system to jointly address the needs of their domestic and international markets. According to a press release by Rheinmetall, both partners complement each other. Rheinmetall Electronics concentrates on command and communication systems for communication between vehicles and the chain of command. By contrast, Intracom Defense is a specialist for intercom systems that enable crew members to communicate with each other.

In concrete terms, cooperation will centre on combining Rheinmetall’s TacNet tactical management system, expertise in soldier systems and C4ISTAR applications with Intracom Defense’s WiSPRevo communication, information system and longstanding experience in the field of vehicle communications.

Under the agreement, Rheinmetall and Intracom Defense will pool their technological, production and commercial capabilities to produce operationally excellent, user-friendly, cost-efficient C4I solutions for military vehicles – invariably geared to the needs of the customer.
