On 5 January 2023, Rheinmetall introduced that they’d enhance their partnership with blackned GmbH, a software program firm based mostly in Germany, by taking a 40% stake within the firm. The aim of this partnership is to help the digitisation of armed forces and to strengthen Rheinmetall’s place within the growth of tactical info and communication networks and system networks. Blackned GmbH will retain its independence regardless of the partnership with Rheinmetall.
Blackned makes a speciality of communications methods and has developed a product referred to as TacticalCore. This product might be built-in into Rheinmetall’s present methods as a part of their efforts to digitise land-based operations for the Bundeswehr. The purpose of this challenge is to modernise and equip the Bundeswehr for motion by 2025 as a part of the “Division 2025” challenge.
Rheinmetall is concerned in tasks associated to the digitisation of armed forces in nations resembling Australia, Nice Britain, and Hungary.
