05.07.2024
Between 17th to 21st of June, 2024, INTRACOM DEFENSE participated in the International Defense and Security Exhibition EUROSATORY 2024, in Paris, where among its other exhibits, IDE had the pleasure to present the European Defense Fund (EDF 2022) Project PROTEAS.
PROTEAS, with the ultimate goal to create the first of its kind Special Operations Forces (SOF) Command Post and Command & Control System (SOFCPC2), to support EU-led SOF Small Joint Operations, is part of EU’s efforts to boost the cooperation among EU member states to enhance Europe’s strategic autonomy and strengthen its defense capabilities.
The IDE’s executives engaged with visitors during the exhibition, discussing the innovative PROTEAS system-of-systems that the Project will deliver for the benefit of the European military forces, as PROTEAS aims to upgrade the role of SOF, reducing not only the time for operational readiness but also the cost of EU SOF Small Joint Operations.
IDE coordinates the consortium of the project PROTEAS, comprising of 14 partners from Belgium, Cyprus, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, and Norway, with the significant contribution of the Hellenic Ministry of Defence which is the Project Manager and co-funds the Project, along with the French, Italian, Belgian and Norwegian MoDs. Within the project’s scope, IDE focuses mainly on the development of the PROTEAS Energy System, the Intelligence and sensing SW Platform and the PROTEAS manned/unmanned sea and aerial assets. Moreover, IDE leads the prototyping and testing PROTEAS activities.
