RENK Group AG, a supplier of propulsion solutions for the military sector, has received further orders to deliver transmissions for several German Armed Forces vehicle programmes.

 

The contracts, valued at more than EUR 45 million, cover HSWL 256, HSWL 354 and AGB300 transmissions for the Puma infantry fighting vehicle, the Büffel armoured recovery vehicle and the Boxer armoured transport vehicle.

 

 

Michael Masur, CEO Vehicle Mobility Solutions at RENK GmbH, said: “In light of the new NATO capability requirements and the initiated expansion of armed forces, we are focusing on reliably meeting our customers’ growing demand for vehicle platforms with high-quality propulsion components.” He added: “Our field-tested propulsion solutions form the backbone of military mobility and are a key element of European operational capability, making us all the more proud to make a vital contribution to the safety and effectiveness of the German Federal Armed Forces.”

 

 

According to the company, the orders form part of the ongoing expansion of the Bundeswehr and contribute to strengthening the armed forces’ operational capability. The transmissions will be manufactured at RENK’s headquarters in Augsburg.
