Patria has signed a Life Cycle Management (LCM) contract with Finland and Latvia for the Common Armoured Vehicle System (CAVS) programme, based on Patria 6x6 vehicle. Other CAVS countries may join the contract later. The contract will expand the CAVS commonality principle and secure co-operation and cost efficiency for the whole lifecycle of the system. In the contract parties jointly agree on delivery of lifecycle management services necessary to carry out the sustainment of the CAVS vehicles and related capabilities through entire fleet lifecycle. The contract will increase the national security of supply within the partner nations due to common lifecycle management services and products. Mats Warstedt, Senior Vice President, Nordics:” I’m excited that CAVS programme is entering into the sustainment phase by the signing of this CAVS LCM contract, which will secure long-term co-operation for always keeping the fleets fully operational. At the same time this CAVS LCM contract is the first Patria OPTIME-based contract, which is also a significant milestone for this customer-tailored service concept.“ Find out more: https://lnkd.in/dm3vVi7E #Patria #Finland #Latvia #CAVS #6x6 #vehicle #defence #industry #military #technology #Europe #OPTIME

Two future F-35 Lightning II customers are being added to Lockheed Martin’s supply chain for the fifth-generation fighter aircraft as its deployment across Europe accelerates. Local industry partners in Finland and the Czech Republic have successfully obtained workshare as part of their respective F-35 procurements. Finland’s Patria will supply 400 sets of landing gear doors to Lockheed Martin, as part of a workshare agreement announced between the two parties on 27 March. A “landing gear doors” production line will be established at Patria’s Halli facility in Jämsä. The locally produced doors will first be fitted onto Finland’s fleet of F-35s before being exported. Czech company Vrgineers, Inc. has been tapped to build a ground simulator which can be used to train F-35 pilots. The company was selected by Lockheed as a strategic partner in the “pilot training industrial cooperation” project. Vrgineers will be responsible for both development and delivery of the simulators.

The family and I had the opportunity yesterday to hang out with my wingman, Maverick, and take in the Fargo AirSho, one of my favorite events when it rolls around every other summer! Here are 10 great quotes from the 1986 classic, Top Gun, that remind me of some key leadership and business principles. ✈ "You don't have time to think up there. If you think, you're dead." - Be decisive and get so good at what you do that you rarely have to think about the execution - it's natural. ✈ "It's classified. I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you." - Value confidentiality in business and never burn trust with others. ✈ "I feel the need...the need for speed!" - Embrace the need for urgency when necessary. ✈ "You can be my wingman anytime." - Support your team and others. You'll always go further with others. ✈ "It's not the plane, it's the pilot." - Hone your skills to the point that you have ultimate trust in them. ✈ "There are no points for second place." - Always strive for excellence. ✈ "Because I was inverted." - Commit to being disciplined and doing the hard things. ✈ "You never leave your wingman." - Loyalty toward those you trust and have proven themselves is vital. ✈ "Your ego is writing checks your body can't cash." - Push beyond your limits. ✈ "I don't trust you because you're dangerous." - Be open and honest with others. #leadership #businesslessons #topgun #fargoairsho #aviation #fargo #aviationindustry #aerospace #flying #aircraft #patrickmetzger
