Slovenian Defence Products www.mo.gov.si Photo: Bruno Toič FOREWORD LONG INDUSTRIAL TRADITION, QUALITY AND INNOVATION The Slovenian defence industry is based on a long Slovenian industrial tradition, engineering knowledge and mastery of craft. Strong export orientation, investments in knowledge, new technologies and the implementation of international standards have all shaped Slovenian industry in the last few decades. The country’s main export markets are the EU, SouthEast Europe and other world markets. The production of military weapons and equipment is part of a tradition lasting several hundred years in the territory of Slovenia. The well-renowned Slovenian precision and craftsmanship are reflected in Slovenian defence products that are distinguished by the inclusion of their own know-how, highest quality, innovation and optimal performance-to-cost ratio. Since joining NATO in 2004, interoperability and compliance with NATO standards have become the guiding principle of the development of new defence production programs in Slovenia. The cooperation among Slovenian enterprises, universities and research institutes records a constant growth. The close collaboration of the companies with the Standardisation, codification and quality assurance department of the Ministry of defence of Slovenia keeps the production of armaments and military equipment in accordance with up to date NATO AQAP series standards and manages product quality assurance during their life cycle. The catalogue presents diverse products and services. From solder equipment, handguns and light arm parts, ammunition, explosives storage and manipulation, CBRN defence, battlefield management, border control, telecommunication, unmanned systems, to diverse special technologies and engineering. Trading in defence equipment in Slovenia is regulated by the Law on Defence and other legal acts requiring the producers of military weapons and equipment to register with the Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Slovenia. There are several ways potential customers can contact the Slovenian producers of defence equipment, including by contacting the national defence industry association Slovenian Defence Industry Cluster. This publication was prepared by the Slovenian Defence Industry Cluster (GOIS) in cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia and the Ministry of Defence of Slovenia. It represents Slovenian companies which provide high quality products and services in the areas of defence, security and protection.

Trgovska ulica 3 SI-6310 Izola T: +386 5 64 00 150 F: +386 5 64 00 151 E: info@anthron.si Anthron is a small family owned company specialized in producing quality rope access and rescue equipment. The idea for the company sparkled in the wake of the 1977 earthquake when the founder Mr Jože Lorbek pondered about efficient rescue systems for safe mass evacuations from high-elevation buildings. The original idea still represents the stance of the company’s orientation and rope access and rescue be it at work, sport or combat are at the heart of its strategic orientation. On one hand it supplies the global market with its standard products that span the range from descenders, rope clamps to an array of pulleys. On the other hand being small makes the company more flexible in responding to the needs of customers seeking equipment tailored for their specific applications. The company holds representation for a number of worldwide sectorial producers such as: CMC Rescue, Bornack, Act Safe, Climbing Technology, Honeywell, Rock Exotica, Singing rock, Cresto and others. 8 In collaboration with special forces an intervention-centred descender DSDpro was developed and offered along with carefully chosen materials in a kit. It is the only descender on the market that can be fully operated with one hand only. Contrary to most double stop descenders the press-stop function is emphasized making it operationally more intuitive and its gentle yet extremely strong grip on the rope means no creep. These features coupled with a strudy design, abrasion resistance and a ruberized finish make it virtually indestructible and make stealthy movement possible.

In some cases, very strict safety requirements and additional governmental permissions are needed, making the numerical approach the only reasonable and valuable tool for examination. Blast response of structures is of great importance in military applications. However, civil and governmental structures are becoming more exposed to blast loads as a result of increased possibility of terrorist attacks, especially in the last two decades. Whatever the structure under investigation, a blast loading model should be verified first in order to be successfully used for examination. For that purpose, we have developed very powerful and sophisticated numerical models for advanced analyses, which can be used for examination of mechanical as well as civil structures. Finite element analyses of bullet plate perforation We also have experience in modeling advanced higly nonlinear processes involving fracture initiation, its development and final size. FEM response analyses of light armored vehicle (LAV) Valuk 6x6 under 6 kg TNT blast 22 Precise and accurate finite element (FE) analyses require precise material models as well as parameters of the materials involved in the process. Therefore, we also specialize in static, dynamic as well as fatigue material characterization for which advanced techniques such as acoustic emission as well as image analyses are used. FAKULTETA ZA STROJNIŠTVO Material characterization using image analyses technique With the use of high-speed video cameras (FASTCAM Ultima 512), recording and comparison of many highspeed processes is possible. FASTCAM ultima 512 – Instrumented Charpy test Commercial as well as our own software tools enable formulation and application of mechanical and mathematical models of vehicles and assemblies thereof. Such models are applicable for simulations at different levels of complexity and speed of computation. We have developed a software tool i3Drive, which enables simulation of a wheeled vehicle ride on an arbitrary terrain. The i3Drive software tool is connectable to a haptic interface (active seat, active steering wheel) which provides the user with the feedback through the displacement of the seat or the force/moment applied on the steering wheel. Geometrical and simulation model of a 6-wheel military vehicle (Valuk 6x6) We also specialize in building and implementing detailed geometric, mechanical (MBS) and mathematical models of wheeled vehicles. Additionally, we carry out experimental validation of these simulation results. Instrumented Charpy test vs. numerical result comparison 23 FAKULTETA ZA STROJNIŠTVO We have also developed a module for the simulation of system dynamics based on the multi-rigid-body system approach which shall be widely applicable for the simulation of all elements of the human-vehicle-roadway system. Analysis of the cervical spine dynamics at rear-end impact on a sled test device Geometrical models of the Slovene Military vehicles Geometrical models of various vehicle types have been produced for the purpose of display in a virtual 3D environment. They are applicable for display in various software tools (commercial and our own developed ones). Numerical simulations based on the multi-body system (MBS) and the finite element method (FEM) are two types of computational methods used for simulating the human body response during traffic accidents or other mechanics loadings. Using these techniques, our research group has developed a MBS model of a human body that consists of interconnected body segments the relative movements of which are limited by resistive joint properties. Geometrical and mass properties of individual segments are determined through a CT scan with CAD reconstruction. FEM of Human Neck and Torso with cervical vertebrae and intervertebral disc 24 Model verification and optimization were performed based on impact tests on a purpose-built sled test device. The model is robust and computationally efficient and hence appropriate for parametric analyses of critical traffic situations. Based on the determined load flow and injury criteria, the model can predict injuries to vehicle occupants and other road users for different traffic accident scenarios.

Sand/Shot blasting of tubular forms Modern day gun barrels are sophisticated in their construction and makeup. Specials materials and structures are needed for withstanding high pressures and stresses. For this kind of product to have a long life cycle and in order to withstand severe conditions of use, special outer coatings and surface preparation must be applied. • External Sand/Shot blasting of tubular forms • Closed cabinet or trough-feed design • Workpiece rotation • Automatic nozzle manipulation • Parametric blast programming External Sandblasting of gun components As we see in other segments of defence equipment, the same growing trend of high demands can be noticed with modern guns and similar types of equipment and components. Meaning that alongside quality prepared surface and achieved required standards of roughness for better adhesion of coating, it is also of great importance to achieve the appropriate final visual effect of parts in order to satisfy more and more demanding needs of the end-user, who is putting a lot of pressure on the industry so as to constantly achieve a better aesthetic look. Shot peening is a well-known technology with which the surface of a part is bombarded with small spherical media called shot. Each piece of shot striking the metal acts as a tiny peening hammer imparting a small indentation or dimple on the surface, thus hardening the surface. This technology offers significant increases in part life, while protecting it against fatigue and stress corrosion. It is the most economical and practical method of ensuring surface residual compressive stresses. Our company employs four certified shot peening specialists, ensuring our esteemed business partners that we are always one step ahead. 26 Manual surface blasting in order to achieve correct roughness of the particular gun component • Simple design closed cabinet • Manual or Semi-automatic blasting • Ergonomic design for everyday T: +386 7 39 31 400 F: +386 7 39 31 440 E: info@iskra-pio.si W: www.iskra-pio.si Iskra PIO is a progressive European company active in the clean and cleaning technology. safely and effectively with chemical, biological or radiological hazardous materials.

Ultrasonic cleaning equipment It can be deployed/pre-positioned where there is a risk of radiological, biological or chemical terrorism or to support public health missions such us influenza outbreak or natural disaster response. It will provide military units and first responders with a facility for emergency response, where they have the use of laboratory equipment, including Class II and Class III Biological safety cabinets, pass-through containment boxes and analytical equipment essential for working Ultrasonic cleaning technique is an efficient one because of the fact that it sends sound waves through the water in an ultrasonic bath that ignites the cleaning process. A huge amount of minute bubbles, or often known as cavitations at times, are formed and then collapsed because of those sound waves. This creates many small jets moving through the cleaning liquid. These jets are used as a brush to wipe off the dirt from the object you are looking to clean. This results in ultrasonic cleaning of various objects within the cleaner. Ultrasonic is very helpful when it comes to cleaning objects that cannot be cleaned otherwise and you do not need to rub or polish these objects. 27 ISKRA PIO D.O.O. Another field of application is ultrasonic gun and rifle cleaning. Quickly and effortlessly removes dirt, carbon and grease even the most soiled guns. Ultrasonic waves penetrate deep into those hard to reach places for thorough and effortless cleaning. There are many considerations important to ultrasonic cleaning.

Part 4 of this standard explains how to mitigate the effects of lighting by creating safe “protection zones” within the structure and by applying specific measures such as: screening, structural lightning protection, grounding, equipotential bonding and surge protection. The companion IEC 61643 series of standards, provides information on the testing and selection of Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) used for the protection of sensitive electronic systems. Iskra Zascite has technical experts on both these committees, as well as other international bodies such as Cenelec in the EU, and IEEE and UL in the USA. Such active participation by our key technical personnel ensures they remain abreast of the latest know-how and that our products are able to comply with all relevant mandates and norms on safety and performance. Military Systems – A coordinated approach to protection Military Systems - Environmental threats Modern military facilities comprise an array of sophisticated electronic systems which are vital to the nation’s security and the safety of its forces and operating personnel. Such systems, by their very nature, are also becoming increasingly susceptible to damage from transient over-voltages. These transients may eventuate from airborne events such as lightning, EMI or NEMP radiation, or from system level transients induced on the supply and data communications networks. The effects of the natural lightning event are described in the International Electrotechnical series of Lightning Protection Standards, IEC 62305. This four part series provides general information on the natural lightning phenomenon as well as guidance as to 30 Over the last 15 years the company has become recognised as a world leader in its field and a leading manufacturer of SPDs for the protection of electrical and electronic systems. The company is often contracted as a sub-consultant to large industrial projects where a coordinated approach to facility protection is required. The company is capable of providing comprehensive solutions to lightning and surge protection as well as grounding and bonding. These include carrying out risk management assessments, feasibility studies, technical consulting, engineering, commissioning, training and remote monitoring as required. To provide external structural lightning protection to facilities such as: command and control centres, munitions bunkers, radar, navaids and fuel storage depots, it ISKRA ZAŠČITE D.O.O. is licensed to market both conventional and early stream emission lightning terminals, insulated down-conductor systems and grounding solutions. It also produces a line of lightning event and surge event counters. A number of its products are designed for hazardous and explosive environments and are IECEx and ATEX certified for use in such environments. The company adopts a strategic approach to its manufacturing by ensuring the supply of critical components used in the manufacture of SPDs, remains within its control. For example, the company is physically located some few hundred meters from the fabrication of metal oxide varistors (MOV) and has recently commissioned its own state-of-the-art gas discharge tube (GDT) fabrication facility. Both MOVs and GDTs are key components to SPDs. This high degree of vertical integration has allowed our manufacturing to remain world competitive despite the pressures from Asian competitors. To our important customers, this translates to meaning supply security, knowing that the designs and solutions we engineer today, will remain available and supported in the years ahead. The company also prides itself in design excellence and in solving practical challenges. An example of this is our SAFETEC series of SPDs, which employs patented technology to allow the SPD to handle temporary over-voltages of the power network without burning or permanent disconnection. To the customer this means added safety and reliability as well as increased operating service life. Military Systems – Remote monitoring As with many electronics devices connected to the power grid, there is a growing need to provide capabilities for remote monitoring. The utility industry is beginning to talk of a “smart grid” of tomorrow. While this term may means different things to different people, it clearly does imply that equipment connected to the power network will require to be remotely monitored and/or controlled. Iskra Zascite are already working on the new generation of “intelligent SPDs” - SDPs which can be remotely monitored and signal their life-status to a centralized facility management system - for example by flagging that maintenance is required, or that a surge has been diverted to protect the equipment. The new ProGrid series of surge and lightning counters is one such example where a remote communication link via Ethernet or GSM is provided. To better accommodate our future plans to provide a comprehensive and coordinated approach to remote data monitoring, the Iskra Zaščite Group acquired the Slovenian company Solvera Lynx. This addition brings to our business the capability to integrate many aspects of a strategic facility including its: surge and lighting protection systems, tactical communications, air space control, artillery command and its control and communications systems.

VR-elektronika, d.o.o. Pod Hruševco 48 F SI-1360 Vrhnika MEASUREMENT INTERFACE PR-12 GUN STABILIZATION AMPLIFIER AMT-STP2 (T55) The PR12/T-55 measurement interface is intended for quick checking of the voltages and currents on the connector of the AMT_STP2 (AB-T54B) amplifier in the gun stabilizer of the T5* serier main battle tanks. It fits mechanically directly on the amplifier connector. It can measure the input and output voltages of the amplifier, and the supply voltages, currents and frequency. The AMT-STP2 amplifier is a direct replacement for the original tube based servo amplifier used in the stabilizer systems of the T5* series main battle tanks. It is powered by a built-in rechargeable 9V 120mAh NiCd battery. PR-12 is shipped with a suitable battery charger, with a 230VAC power plug. The 14V/AC output includes a connecting cable with the required DC connector that fits PR-12. The PR-12 can measure 15 different electrical quantities in the STP-2 stabilizer, which are accessible on the amplifier connector. In most measurements, the readout is calibrated in % of the nominal value, so that “100.0” on the display corresponds to the nominal value of the measured quantity. 44 E: vr.elektronika@siol.net T: +386 1 750 24 35 F: +386 1 750 24 36 The AMT-STP2 amplifier is 100% mechanically and electrically compatible with the original amplifier, and can be used as a drop-in replacement. The AMT-STP2 amplifier has the following advantages over the original amplifier: • Better lifetime stability -no re-adjustment because of aging tubes • Less maintenance required • Better thermal stability (less change of parameters during warm-up) • Better stability of the amplification • Better calibration sensitivity of the azimuth and elevation potentiometers • better mechanical stability • Lower power consumption (no tube heaters) means cooler operation • With over 150 years of tradition, voluntary membership, and by far the largest number of members, the CCIS is the most influential business association in Slovenia • Offering the collective wisdom and rich experience of more than 100 experts and specialists • Uniting commerce, industry, tourism and service sectors in Slovenia • As a member of Eurochambres and the ICC, as well as other international associations and organisations, the CCIS is part of an extensive international network with innumerable contacts • References and experience in the realisation of EuropeAid programmes such as Asia Invest, AL Invest, Gateway to Japan, Executive Training Programme for Japan and Korea… At Your Service Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia – CCIS Dimičeva 13, SI-1504 Ljubljana, Slovenia T: +386 1 5898 000, F: +386 1 5898 100 E: info@gzs.si W: www.gzs.si/eng Our staff are at your service and will provide you with all the information you need!

In addition to regular training of Slovenian Armed Forces’ units, the school conducted courses for NATO Nations and Partners as part of bilateral military cooperation, as well as in the preparation for the deployment of contingents to crisis response operations. On March 25th 2015 Memorandum of Understanding to establish NATO MW COE has been signed among ACT, Croatia, Germany, Italy and Slovenia in Washington. Austria will participate as a partner nation. The NATO MW COE represents the core with the required professional skills to develop standardized training. Demanding terrain and climate has always been a great challenge to perform all forms of military operations. With the support of the Nations, the proposed NATO MW COE is the tool to achieve this level of standardization and interoperability in mountainous environment, with the intent to support the NATO smart defense approach.
