Composites

Falck Schmidt Defence Systems competences within composites are based on the capability for modeling advanced finite elements as well as in-house prototyping and testing. Our capabilities provide products within:

• Structural composite and hybrid components for vehicles and other platforms.
• Add-on Armor components and systems for existing and new platforms.

Falck Schmidt Defence Systems capabilities within composites supports our own product range as well as a number of the larger defence ORM's product lines worldwide.

Add-on Armor

Falck Schmidt Defence Systems has developed, manufactured and supported several add-on armor systems i.e. for the LAV/PIRANHA III and the fire support vehicle PNMK M/92.

Falck Schmidt Defence Systems continues development in order to optimize the solutions in respect of especially the adaptability, weight, cost, and the overall protection - in terms of minimizing the ballistic windows.
