The WB Group signed a contract with PCO S.A. for the transportation of optoelectronic warheads GOD-1 and GOC-1 to the distant control tower strategy ZSSW-30. The unmanned tower will be equipped with the Rosomak 8×8.
On 21 November there was a solemn signing of the agreement of the WB Group (represented by WB Electronics S.A.) with the company PCO S.A. (member of the Polish Armed Forces Group) for the transportation of optical heads GOD-1 and GOC-1. The value of the four-year contract is over PLN 206 million.
– Today we signed an crucial agreement, which is the consequence of many years of large cooperation between the WB Group and PCO S.A. It is simply a contract of advanced value, highlighting the importance of cooperation in the Polish defence industry.If we look at the unmanned tower, a very crucial PCO contribution is visible. The optoelectronic instruments manufactured by the company are purchased by the WB Group and then implemented into ZSSW-30 – said Piotr Wojciechowski, president of the WB Group.
– Today's deal is 1 of the key issues for PCO S.A. As a company with experience, we hope that thanks to the contract in the future, together with the another participants of the consortium under the aegis of the Polish Armed Forces Group, we will receive much larger orders. shortly the Badger Infantry Truck will enter mass production and we want to be part of this program – said Witold Słowik, president of PCO S.A.
Ordered by WB Electronics S.A. Optoelectronic Head of the Commander (GOD-1) and Optoelectronic Head of the Departmental Head (GOC-1) are part of the developed by the WB Group and HSW S.A. (a company of PGZ) distant controlled tower strategy ZSSW-30.
The unmanned module is equipped with an advanced fire control strategy developed by the WB Group with independent commander and cannon heads from PCO S.A. Each head has a regular camera, a thermal camera and a laser rangefinder.
– It is worth noting that this year is simply a 4th of a century from the establishment of WB Electronics S.A., a leading company in the WB Group. Over the past 25 years, we have developed a immense level of assurance in decision-makers, but since the beginning, we have been working powerfully with conventional arms producers. These include HSW, Rosomak, WZM, PIT-RADWAR and others present associated with the Polish Armed Forces Group. It is worth remembering that these companies were not always in the PGZ. The process of change has taken place over many years – added Wojciechowski.
– A 4th of a century of cooperation has caused cooperation to be not only permanent, but besides built on solid foundations. It is based on the trust, benefits and common success of the entities of the PGZ and the WB Group, conducting joint R & D projects, and then starting mass production together. A good example is Cancer, Crab, ZSSW, or in the close future Titan, which is besides developed in close cooperation and under the aegis of PCO S.A.Cooperation is very beneficial for both parties. On the 1 hand, the WB Group conducts its own projects and implements its own deliveries for the needs of the Polish Armed Forces. On the another hand, it provides a large contribution of substance and technology to products offered by the Polish Armed Forces Group. Another example of specified feedback is Huta Stalowa Wola, which will produce and supply a immense number of vehicles for the GLADIUS system – stressed the president of the WB Group.
Today we can see that this is not a one-sided direction of cooperation in which the WB Group is simply a sub-supplier of PGZ. In the increasing business space, WB is the recipient of products of the Polish Armed Forces Group, not from 1 company, but from many associated companies. – concluded the president of the WB Group.
– Today's celebration is simply a confirmation that we are doing our occupation well. The top successes are achieved together. specified an example is the ZSSW-30 tower system, which is simply a model example of cooperation between private and state entities, which besides proves that we are able to supply the highest quality solutions, which in a leap increase our army's ability to effectively defend our NATO borders and borders – said Jakub Roszkowski, a associate of the PGZ Board present during the signing of the contract.
The stabilized Optoelectronic Head of the Commander (GOD-1) is simply a technologically advanced reflection system. It is characterized by solutions for easy integration of GOD-1 into any combat platforms. The plan allows the usage of a head for various types of land vehicles intended to detect, identify, identify ground and air purposes.
The Stabilized Optoelectronic Heading Head (GOC-1) is designed to operate in detection, observation, tracking and aiming systems for ground and air purposes in daylight and night lighting conditions. GOC-1 consists of an integrated optoelectronic module placed on a biaxially stabilized carrier platform.
