Rheinmetall AG Consolidate Defence Unit

摘要

Rheinmetall has decided to consolidate its defence unit's extensive military vehicle activities in a new division called "Vehicle Systems". As a first step, Rhein- metall Landsysteme GmbH (RLS) and Rheinmetall MAN Military Vehicles GmbH (RMMV) have been placed under joint management effective from Jan 1, 2016. CEO Ben Hudson and CFO Michael Wittlinger leads the new division. Starting on Jan 1, 2016, Hudson has also been appointed to the Executive Board of Rheinmetall Defence where he now represents the new vehicle systems division. The resulting unit is poised to be a comprehensive supplier of tracked and wheeled military vehicles and turret solutions, capable of meeting the complete ground mobility needs of the world's armed forces-all from a single source. Under the new structure, Rheinmetall Defence will consist of the following three divisions: vehicle systems, electronic solutions and weapons and ammunition.
