OCCAR has been entrusted the management of the EU HYDEF project by the European Commission (EC) and the Participating States. Between August 27 and 28, 2024, EU HYDEF project has successfully achieved its second major technical milestone – the Mission Definition Review (MDR), entering then into the next Phase of the project. The event took place in the facilities of the beneficiary Nammo in Raufoss (Norway). The MDR and its related documentation package entailed a comprehensive evaluation of operational concepts, capabilities, and performance of the interceptor options developed thus far. The consortium provided detailed analyses of user and mission requirements, a thorough investigation of potential threats, identification of necessary weapon and sensor systems, and a high-level system model. A key aspect of the MDR was to verify the proposed system architecture against established requirements within the constraints of available resources. The consortium demonstrated that the high-level system architecture and specifications are feasible and achievable by the target date of 2035. The successful completion of the MDR is a testament to the consortium's technical expertise and collaborative spirit. It brings the EU HYDEF project one step closer to realizing its goal of safeguarding European airspace against the evolving threat landscape. The MDR was conducted under the management of OCCAR HYDEF PD and with the active participation of the complete HYDEF consortium, led by SMS for project management and Diehl Defence for technical leadership. Notably, HYDEF Participating States attended and participated actively in this crucial milestone. Their positive feedback and endorsement underscore the project's significant progress and alignment with European Defence objectives. _____ Co-funded by the European Union.

“We must take an all-of-ecosystem approach to defence, as it harnesses diversity which encourages resilience. Working in siloes will only reveal part of the picture in situations where we need full transparency in order to achieve decision advantage.” As our Digital Transformation Director Mivy James says, collaboration in defence is key.

✈ In this article, our expert David Garcia Arrate details European Defence Fund (EDF) 2024 Work Programme priorities. It particularly introduces the EU Defence Innovation Scheme (EUDIS) with a substantial funding of €225 million, dedicated to boosting defense innovation and inclusiveness. Key Highlights: - EDF’s comprehensive support for research and development cycles, enhanced by advisory services. - Incentives for SMEs and mid-caps through a special bonus system linked to the PESCO initiative. - EUDIS’s focus on supporting smaller players with initiatives like annual defense hackathons, business coaching, and a Business Accelerator and Matchmaking program with investors. This initiative is perfectly aligned with the security and defense interests of the EU, under the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) framework, aiming to foster a competitive and innovative European defense industrial base. 🔗 Are you part of an SME, startup, or an innovator in the defense sector looking to get involved?

In the security and defense sector, it is widely recognized that enhancing the European defense industry is essential to ensure the continent's security and stability. Collaboration among European countries, supported by the European Defense Funds, is crucial to this endeavor. These funds facilitate knowledge sharing, resource optimization, and the efficient development of advanced technologies. As a company specializing in unmanned technology, Aurea Avionics is actively involved in significant projects and consortia across Europe, driven by our strong conviction in the importance of strengthening joint defense capabilities within the EU framework. By uniting efforts, Europe can bolster its defense capabilities—an imperative underscored by the onset of the war in Ukraine—advance technological development, reduce costs, and enhance global competitiveness, thereby ensuring the collective deterrent capability of the European project.
