MBDA has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Romanian defence group Romarm and its subsidiary Electromecanica Ploiesti.

The MoU was signed in response to the operational requirements of the Romanian Armed Forces for land-based air defence systems.

It is in line with the requirements set by the Supreme Council of National Defence, MBDA stated.

All three companies involved in the MoU will be able to define and present the best French proposal for advanced tactical missile systems.

Signed in the framework of the Strategic Agreement between Romania and France, the MoU is expected to support the development of the Romanian defense industry through industrial cooperation, local production and transfer of technology, in line with the European initiative of Permanent Structured Cooperation (PESCO).
