The Austrian Armed Forces continue to receive new equipment: After Defense Minister Klaudia Tanner recently presented the Embraer C-390M, the successor to the Armed Forces’ Hercules fleet, together with Chief of Procurement Major General Harald Vodosektoday in Korneuburg, the Minister handed over a second train set of the NBC simulation system Argon to the NBC Defense Center of the Austrian Armed Forces (-> here you can find the latest army news).
The NBC simulation system Argon can realistically simulate the release of radiological and chemical hazardous substances that occur, for example, when toxic industrial chemicals escape or when nuclear weapons are used, for the training of explosive ordnance experts. https://militaeraktuell.at/elbit-praesentierte-crossbow-moerserturm/ This makes the use of simulation substances that may be hazardous to the environment or health during training obsolete.
