The call funds industrial reinforcement of EU production capacity across land, air, naval and underwater defence platforms, including artillery systems, armoured vehicles, fixed and rotary wing aircraft, counter-UxS systems, missile systems, radars, mine warfare systems, naval platforms, firearms and satellite payloads and terminals. Proposals must target specific production bottlenecks such as forging and machining, key sub-systems, composite materials, assembly and integration, manufacturing-as-a-service, or dual-use industry conversion for defence surge, and must show why reinforcing supply of the chosen product is urgent.
