CNIM Systèmes Industriels to equip the Polish armed forces with Motorized Floating Bridges for wet gap crossing.
La Seyne-sur-Mer, 15th June 2022 CNIM Systèmes Industriels has been awarded a contract to equip the Polish Army with the latest generation of gap crossing capabilities.
On Wednesday 15th June, the signing ceremony of the contract between the Polish Armament Agency and CNIM Systèmes Industriels was held in Warsaw for the supply of several hundred meters of Motorized Floating Bridge.
“The latest generation of PFM “Motorized Floating Bridge” meets the needs of today’s modern armed forces in both a continual floating bridge configuration and a ferry configuration supporting the latest heaviest vehicles. Winning this international tender reasserts CNIM Systèmes Industriels ‘s status as leader for the supplier of high-performance gap crossing equipment” notes Xavier Montazel Systems Business Unit Director.
The PFM has been operational for many years in the forces (more than 5500 meters of bridges in operation around the world). Highly mobile and quick to build, the PFM will offer its Polish users a safe and fast crossing capability.
The PFM will thus ensure the mobility of the Polish armed forces, including the safe crossing of the new Abrams M1A2 SEPV3.
