As a recognised world leader in ammunition handling systems, we provide fast, safe and reliable hardware. Many of our systems deliver 300,000 rounds of ammunition — about four years of typical mission activity — before any maintenance is needed.
Mission critical electronics generate significant heat and require an efficient thermal management system. Our thermodynamic expertise ensures that we design and manufacture systems and components including fans, pumps and compressors, that are extremely reliable, even at extreme temperatures.
Our weapon training scoring systems for air, land and sea, can identify and locate projectiles of any size with extreme accuracy. Meggitt Defense Systems has been the leader in this market for over 35 years.
