SANDF replenishes ammunition - defenceWeb (original) (raw)
State arms acquisition agency Armscor has placed orders worth over R486.3 million since 2007 with various concerns to replenish ammunition stocks. Among the orders are three small contracts placed this month for 7.62x51mm belted ammunition and 5.56x45mm Ball rounds.
Armscor places orders on behalf of the SA National Defence Force, the police and the prison service. Except for one order, worth R1.3 million, it is not clear from the Armscor Bulletin System for which of these the orders were placed. The exception is headed for the South African Army. The context suggests the bulk of the other munitions, worth R486 353 751.84, are also destined for the land service.
The state arsenal Denel has been the major beneficiary of the orders. In its annual report for FY2008/9, released in October 2009, it said under an entry for subsidiary Pretoria Metal Pressings (PMP) that SANDF ammunition stocks were close to depletion. It added that orders from the military were showing a “healthy increase” after 13 years of “insignificant sales”. The report noted the SANDF was currently spending about R60 million on small (5.56-12.7mm) and medium calibre (20-35mm) ammunition, adding that increasing that figure to R125 million a year was a “management focus” in the year ahead. The October 2010 annual report stated the order value from the SANDF on PMP’s products increased to R130 million in the 2009/10 financial year, with the target for the coming financial year increasing to R160 million per annum
PMP employs about 1300 people and serves global defence markets as well as the SANDF, the SA Police Service and the Department of Correctional Services. Revenue for the year to March 201 was R626 million, up from R601 million the year before. Profit was R25 million from a loss of R12 million the year before.
