Siham Al Khaleej Technology, Leonardo and MBDA present their new “SIHAM3” combined Anti-Air and Anti-Surface Weapon System at IDEX 2017
Dubai, UAE, February 19, 2017: At IDEX 2017, the UAE company Siham Al Khaleej Technology (SAKT), together with Leonardo and MBDA are presenting an innovative and cost-effective weapon system designated “SIHAM3”, providing a comprehensive and stand-alone anti-air and anti-surface capability to all types of warships.
This industrial cooperation will be officially announced during IDEX 2017 and a mock-up of the system will be displayed at the SAKT booth, B-0004, at NAVDEX.
In particular, SAKT will be responsible for integration of the “SIHAM3” weapon system, which combines two Leonardo products: the OTO Marlin WS 30mm Naval Gun and the Medusa MK4/B Electro-Optical Fire Control System (EO-FCS) providing a stand-alone capability to detect and track with high accuracy either air or surface targets. The system is completed with an MBDA Twin Air Defence Mistral missile launcher on a single mounting.
This new system will be fully controlled by a single operator and will allow for a significant reduction in the ship’s installation requirement thanks to a single mounted system.
A further evolution of the SIHAM3will allow integration with a Combat Management System (CMS).
This “Made in the UAE” system will be developed, produced, assembled and integrated by the three parties together.
