The company will also integrate the TRML-4D radars into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2023\/09\/13\/austria-eyes-german-iris-t-buy-for-nascent-european-sky-shield\/\" target=\"_blank\">IRIS-T<\/a> SLM air defense systems destined for the two customers on behalf of Diehl Defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Estonia and Latvia agreed to purchase the German-made weapons in September in a deal worth more than \u20ac1 billion. For Latvia, the purchase of \u20ac600 million worth of air defense systems was the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2023\/12\/04\/latvia-signs-order-for-german-iris-t-air-defenses\/\" target=\"_blank\">largest military purchase<\/a> in the country\u2019s 30 years of independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The TRML-4D radar enables the detection and tracking of aerial targets within a 250-kilometer (155-mile) radius and are able to simultaneously follow about 1,500 targets, Hensoldt said in a news release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The European Sky Shield Initiative, launched by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in 2022, seeks to strengthen the continent\u2019s air defenses, with a particular aim of countering Russian and Iranian ballistic and cruise missiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The initiative now counts 21 participating countries, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2024\/03\/15\/sweden-and-finland-have-dropped-neutrality-austria-still-fetes-it\/\" target=\"_blank\">neutral non-NATO members<\/a> Austria and Switzerland. The aim is to maintain systems that can form a continuous barrier across the continent, from the Nordic region to Turkey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The latest announcement brings the total number of radars Hensoldt is producing as part of the initiative alone to more than 80, the company said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The German-made IRIS-T is the primary short- and medium-range system used under the scheme. Some participating countries have procured American-made long-range Patriot missiles and the Israeli-made Arrow 3 exo-atmospheric interceptor for longer ranges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">France, which is not part of the initiative, has criticized the approach for relying too heavily on non-European components. Italy and Spain are also not participants. However, the initiative has consistently expanded, notably when Poland dropped its ambiguous stance and announced in April it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2024\/04\/17\/poland-to-join-european-sky-shield-scheme-following-thaw-with-berlin\/\" target=\"_blank\">would join<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The initiative, largely a consequence of Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, has contributed to dramatically accelerating the pace at which European governments are spending funds on air defense. The Baltic states were among the first European nations to kick off the initiative, signing a joint declaration with 12 others in October 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The
