| #3 Russia and French naval research to team up. Russia's state arms exporter and a French defense company signed a cooperation document during an international arms show in France, a RIA Novosti correspondent said Friday. Rosoboronexport and DCN signed a letter of intent aimed at establishing and developing export and technical cooperation in the naval sphere, particularly in R&D and the design of combat ships and submarines. Vladimir Pakhomov, deputy general director of Rosoboronexport, said the signing of the document paves the way for the development of business contacts between the French manufacturer of advanced naval systems and leading Russian shipbuilding companies. As a result of the cooperation, Russian and French partners will be able to develop a competitive edge on old and new markets of modern naval technology, the Russian official said. DCN is one of the few naval defense companies in the world to propose an integrated approach to the construction of warships and their servicing. As a prime contractor, shipbuilder and systems integrator, the company offers resources and expertise spanning the entire naval defense value chain and product lifecycle, from design concept to decommissioning. The 20th International Naval Defense and Maritime Exhibition and Conference is being held at the Paris-Le-Bourget exhibition center October 23-27. |
