AM General Features Proven Protected Mobility at DSEI 2025 in Anticipation of the UK Ministry of Defence’s Land Mobility Programme Solicitation

Friday, September 5th, 2025

SOUTH BEND, Ind., Sept. 5, 2025 — Innovating today for tomorrow’s mission, leading global military mobility solutions provider, AMG General, will showcase the revolutionary HUMVEE Saber and the next generation Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV A2) protected mobility platforms at the Defence Security and Equipment International (DSEI) tradeshow held at the ExCel London Exhibition Centre September 09 – 12, 2025, booth S4-310 in the U.S. Pavilion. This comes as the Company prepares to finalize a partnership selection with a leading UK defense contractor in anticipation of the upcoming United Kingdom Land Mobility Programme (LMP) solicitation.

“We are extremely excited to attend DSEI this year as we announce our intent to participate in the UK’s LMP solicitation,” said Jim Cannon, AM General President and CEO. “We have the extraordinary opportunity to showcase our robust mobility portfolio and convey how AM General can support the UK’s defense readiness and operational safety for their troops. As we move to finalize our UK collaboration, we aim to demonstrate our commitment to long-term UK defense alignment through industrial, operational, and capability partnerships.”

On display will be the JLTV A2, a next generation light tactical vehicle that features over 200 improvements over the previous model, including better corrosion protection, significantly reduced exterior and interior operational noise, and a simplified electrical architecture for easier accessibility and maintenance. AM General will also showcase the Saber light tactical vehicle – built on the battle-proven HUMVEE platform that is transforming survivability with increased levels of protection from its patented cab design. The company’s proprietary technology allows the Saber to have 360-degree kinetic energy threat protection as well as blast threat protection with improved ride quality to excel in any terrain. Both vehicles along with the iconic and still-in-demand HUMVEE trucks will be a part of a demonstration for the UK MoD happening in October 2025.

NP Aerospace Launches New Specialist Women’s Body Armour Range

Friday, September 5th, 2025

NP Aerospace, a global armour manufacturer and vehicle integrator, has launched a new specialist women’s body armour range, at DSEI 2025. Designed and manufactured in UK, this new product has been approached from the ground up to meet the distinct needs of women operating in high-risk environments. At the same time, NP Aerospace is pleased to announce the placement of an order for their new product by a currently undisclosed customer, for 2000 sets in a range of women-specific sizes. The product will be on display at NP’s booth N2-410, at DSEI 9-12 September 2025.

Up until now, women across the defence and security environments, globally, have had to wear body armour that has been designed and validated for men. The resultant poor fit can compromise the protection offered and can be extremely uncomfortable for many women. For some time, NP Aerospace has been investing in an internal R&D project to assess the size and complexity of this challenge, to develop solutions to address the anatomical and operational needs of servicewomen and others in need of such protection.

The outcome of this programme is an optimised curved hard armour plate, that comes in a range of sizes and delivers an increase in both protection and comfort. Development and testing have confirmed that placing a curved plate in a standard men’s sized and configured carrier is not sufficient. The ‘system’ requires an integrated solution with a curved hard armour plate and a women’s specific soft armour insert, all worn within a women’s specific carrier – developed with NP’s partner, Logistik Unicorp. NP’s new product comes in a range of sizes with varying curvature and coverage. This ensures vital organs remain protected from all possible angles, irrespective of body shape. Being ‘comfortable’ also vastly increases effectiveness and endurance when worn for extended periods and in high stress scenarios.

James Kempston, CEO of NP Aerospace, commented: “feedback from women in combat and on security related duties has clearly identified a growing need for specially designed armour that enhances survivability, reduces injury and improves endurance. We’re delighted to be leading the way with our fully developed women’s body armour solution and pleased that we have also received the first order for 2000 sets.” He added: “NP Aerospace is a trusted supplier of body armour products globally, so it’s important that we remain at the forefront of development, maximising the effectiveness and operability of our protection products, for every type of user. This new product is particularly important as the number of women serving within armed forces and wider security services is increasing on a global scale.”

Army Awards TurbineOne Contract for AI-Powered Edge Target Recognition

Friday, September 5th, 2025

SAN FRANCISCO–TurbineOne announced today it has been awarded a five-year, IDIQ contract with a $98.9M ceiling from the U.S. Army to deliver and demonstrate its Frontline Perception System (FPS) as part of the Army’s Intelligence Enterprise modernization.

With FPS, warfighters can build, retrain, and deploy custom machine learning models at the edge without coding, leveraging multiple sensor feeds in degraded communications environments.

Founded in 2021, TurbineOne successfully completed a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract which led to this SBIR Phase III IDIQ, a milestone reached by only a fraction of small businesses. In addition to successful completion of a Phase II SBIR, TurbineOne earned a Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) “success memo” for prototype performance, a key factor in the Army’s decision to award this contract.

TurbineOne will deliver AI/ML-driven automated target recognition, counter-UAS, and collaborative autonomy capabilities to accelerate intelligence and targeting cycles, including processing, exploitation, and dissemination (PED) to Army units. With FPS, warfighters can build, retrain, and deploy custom machine learning models at the edge without coding, leveraging multiple sensor feeds in degraded communications environments.

“We are grateful to partner with innovative Army units that pushed us through years of iterative exercises to deliver a software-first, hardware-agnostic capability ready for global distribution and rapid scale,” said Ian Kalin, CEO of TurbineOne. “We look forward to supporting the Army’s Transformation Initiative in collaboration with the innovative intelligence leaders in the Army G-2 and Program Executive Office-Intelligence, Electronic Warfare & Sensors.”

Allen-Vanguard Launches SECURIS a Mobile Counter Drone Trailer as Part of a New Counter Drone Collaboration with Metis, Blighter, Openworks and EdeyFX

Thursday, September 4th, 2025

Allen-Vanguard, a global leader in providing customised solutions for defeating Radio Frequency (RF) based terrorist and extremist threats, is launching a new mobile counter drone trailer at DSEi 25 in collaboration with Metis, Blighter, Openworks and EdeyFX. This collaboration has been established to leverage the respective expertise (detect and defeat) and proven product capabilities (RF detection, radar detection, optical recognition and RF jamming) from each company to address the increasing threat to people, infrastructure and key locations from the nefarious use of drones.

Details on SECURIS, the new mobile counter uncrewed air systems (C-UAS) trailer system will be available at the Allen-Vanguard stand S5-540 at DSEi 25, Excel, London (9-12 September 2025).

The SECURIS C-UAS trailer is a rapidly deployable, mobile counter drone capability that has a best in class, multi-faceted detection suite combining the advanced RF detection capabilities of SKYPERION from Metis which is used globally by NATO allies in various integrated systems, the unique radar target acquisition capabilities of Blighter’s A400 series, which is also operationally proven globally and the advanced optical recognition system Vision Flex from Openworks; again sector leading for its long-range imagers, dynamic slew-to-cue capability, and twin-AI modules for detection, tracking and identification.

These aspects, along with Allen-Vanguard’s own operationally proven range of C-UAS RF Effectors (ANCILE), have been cleverly integrated onto a bespoke trailer chassis produced by EdeyFX accommodating operational input on design and layout coupled with the highest level of mobility. SECURIS delivers a scalable, fully integrated, comprehensive, easy to use, reliable and future proofed counter drone capability on an extremely mobile and robust platform. Its open architecture and modular nature also makes it highly suitable for the provision of Protection-as-a-Service (PaaS) where customers are provided the latest updates and technology innovations as part of a package rather than just purchasing a one-shot capability.

Bobby Strawbridge, President of Allen-Vanguard said: “I am delighted to formally launch our new fully integrated and scalable mobile counter drone trailer system SECURIS at DSEi 25. We have worked closely with our partners at Metis, Blighter, Openworks and EdeyFX all of whom are agile SMEs like ourselves, and who are acknowledged Domain Knowledge Experts (DKEs) in their respective fields. As specialists, with operationally proven products within our own areas of expertise, we have come together to produce exactly what the customer base has been demanding, a best of breed collaboration of capable systems packaged into a scalable and highly mobile package. SECURIS will help counter the rapidly evolving threat posed by drones and its modularity ensures future adaptability and therefore enables provision of Protection-as-a-Service rather than just product manufacture.”
