Technologies for counter-battery capabilities
Funds research into detecting and neutralising enemy artillery fast enough to catch mobile 'shoot-and-scoot' batteries.
This call funds EDF Research Actions as actual-cost grants, reimbursing verified project spending rather than paying a fixed lump sum, and applicants must file a specific actual-indirect-cost methodology declaration alongside the standard application form and budget table. Of the nine activity types the EDF Regulation recognises, only three are mandatory here -- generating knowledge, integrating k…
This topic wants research into counter-battery capabilities — detecting, locating, identifying and communicating enemy artillery positions fast enough to strike before mobile 'shoot-and-scoot' batteries relocate, particularly at longer range and tactical depth. It may also cover detecting other enemy assets such as headquarters, air-defence and logistics sites as a secondary opportunity.
