  • Defence

    Thales is trusted at the highest levels to help armed forces prepare for, achieve and maintain tactical superiority and strategic independence over any form of threat. In todays highly complex military scenarios, far-reaching decisions must be made correctly and in no time.

    We support this with innovative and integrated solutions for surveillance, reconnaissance and operations. Our comprehensive international portfolio offers the widest possible range of combat-proven solutions for the domains land, sea, air and cyber (impact dimensions).

    From intelligent sensors, to advanced defense systems for joint combat, to connecting and equipping soldiers on the digital battlefield, our systems ensure information superiority and full freedom of action - whether for the commander of a situation and operations center, the commander of a submarine, or even the leader of a troop of snipers.

  • Partner of the German Armed Forces for 50 years

    Thales Germany has been supporting the German Armed Forces ever since they were installed to fulfil their important mission with command and control and reconnaissance equipment - in national defence as well as in foreign missions.

    Our solutions range from individual sensors to combined radar and optronics systems to complex command and control information and reconnaissance systems as well as equipment for electronic warfare. Today's extremely complex and diverse requirements for the various protection and security solutions  for military solutions  with dynamically changing threat scenarios call for a strong and reliable technology partner like Thales, who takes technological development steps together with its customer, the Bundeswehr, and actively incorporates their needs into the products and prioritises the user.

    Today, we protect field camps of the German Armed Forces and their allies against a variety of different threats, even in the most demanding operational areas – permanently, effectively and around the clock.

    However uncertain the situation may appear to be the future: we will continue to help the German Armed Forces to make the right decision at the right time.

  • Security

    Thales develops and delivers solutions that enables states, cities institutions and international corporations to protect their critical infrastructure in an increasingly unpredictable world, with emerging threats through the cyberspace.

    Accelerated by the global trend of digitalisation, it is not only digital data traffic, mobility and the networking of people that are growing worldwide. At the same time, cybercrime is on the rise,  against companies, institutions and states and their infrastructure.

    Against this background, physical and virtual security is of utmost importance for the protection of people, economic assets, financial markets, public infrastructures and sensitive data. The systems used must be scalable and available around the clock. Thales networked security technologies enable effective management of critical scenarios. At any time.

    In normal situations for police forces as well as in unforeseeable exceptional circumstances - from local incidents to crises on a national scale. Thales solutions are always a decisive step ahead of the digital threats.
