Defence Forces to procure counter-battery radars to develop capabilities
https://www.defmin.fi/en/topical/press_ ... 588_m=9621The Defence Forces’ Logistic Command has received a mandate, on 11.1.2019, from Minister of Defence Jussi Niinistö to procure counter-battery radars for the Defence Forces. The radar systems, training for the systems and spare parts will be ordered from the Israeli company ELTA Systems.
The new systems will provide the Army with capabilities to locate the opponent’s firing units and launch counter-battery activities. The new capability will develop the Army fires while counter-battery activities restrict the opponent’s freedom to use fire power.
In addition to target acquisition for counter-battery activities, the modern multi-role radars can be used, at the same time, also for fire observing and air surveillance. The Defence Forces invited international tenders and the selected system was tested in Finland in spring 2018. It excelled in the tendering process and in meeting the requirements.
The radar system deliveries are scheduled for 2021; the contract also includes options for further procurements. Millog Oy and Telva Oy will be in charge of systems maintenance services. Millog Oy is the Defence Forces strategic partner in maintenance and Telva Oy represents ELTA Systems in Finland.

Anfang Dezember hat Finnland einen neuen Gefechtskopf für das GMLRS getestet:
Increasingly effective fires by the heavy rocket launcher’s new ammunition
The Finnish Army has successfully conducted test firing to benchmark the effect and precision accuracy of the area effects capability ammunition of the GMLRS AW (Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System Alternative Warhead) in long-range fires. The test firing was conducted into the Rovajärvi training exercise area on Saturday 1 December 2018.
https://maavoimat.fi/artikkeli/-/asset_ ... geId=en_USThe GMLRS ammunition fired by a heavy rocket launcher complement this entity. The area effects capability ammunition of the GMLRS AW blasts fragmentation while exploding above the target. The range of the GPS-guided rockets is approximately 80 kilometres.
– The performance capability of this new ammunition has now become validated. The GMLRS rockets will enhance the Finnish Defence Forces’ readiness for sustained long-range fires. These rockets enable precision fires from increasingly longer distances and thus increase the capability for defending the entire country, Inspector of Artillery, Colonel Pasi Pasivirta explains.
The procurement decision on the GMLRS ammunition of the heavy rocket launcher was made in the year 2016 enabling the Finnish Army’s new long-range area effects capability. This caters for increasingly effective utilisation of the heavy rocket launcher procured in 2006 with access to a more versatile selection of ammunition.
Each GMLRS (Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System) rocket is a rocket to be launched by a heavy rocket launcher
- The ammunition element is packaged in a rocket pod standardised for utilisation by a heavy rocket launcher
- One heavy rocket launcher can be loaded with two pods
- A rocket pod carries six rockets
Each Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System Alternative Warhead rocket features
- The GMLRS ammunition and heavy rocket launcher system are manufactured by Lockheed Martin, USA
- Area effects capability
- Pre-fragmented AW warhead (wolframite blast fragmentation)
- Range 15 – 80+ km
- Guidance and control system by GPS/Inertia
