From 15 to 19 June, Paris will host another edition of Eurosatory 2026, the international exhibition of defence and security technologies and military equipment, the largest event of its kind in Europe. Among the traditional participants of this prestigious exhibition will be companies from the CSG Group, which will showcase their products, projects, and technological solutions at a joint exhibition in Hall 5a, booths K246 and K256.
This will be one of the largest exhibitions at the trade fair and, at the same time, the largest exhibition by companies from the Czech Republic. Exhibitors will include Tatra Defence, Tatra Export, Excalibur International, Excalibur Army, MSM Land Systems, MSM Group, Retia, Eldis, AviaNera Technologies, as well as the brands Fiocchi Munizioni, Federal, Speer, and CCI, which are part of the CSG Ammo+ division.
On the opening day of the exhibition, Tatra Defence will unveil the Tadeas 4×4 command vehicle in its world premiere. The new model complements the already-produced Tadeas 6×6 version. Its welded armoured hull provides a high level of protection and can be fitted with additional armour up to STANAG 4569 Level 4 ballistic protection. Depending on customer requirements, the roof can be equipped with hatches, weapon mounts, or remote-controlled weapon stations. A key advantage is the sharing of chassis and electronic components with the third generation of the Tatra Force series.
Tatra Export, representing the Tatra Trucks vehicle manufacturer, will showcase the complete portfolio of Tatra medium and heavy logistics vehicles at Eurosatory 2026. The main exhibit at the joint CSG Group stand will be the previously mentioned third-generation Tatra Force 8×8 hook-loader vehicle equipped with an armoured cab.The third generation of the Force military series features modern engines, advanced onboard electronics, and offers a high level of safety, ergonomics, and operational control. The chassis is based on Tatra’s proven design concept, incorporating a central backbone tube and independently suspended swinging half-axles with air suspension. Multi-axle configurations with various numbers of driven and steered axles are available.The Tatra chassis platform is also used by the Tadeas 4×4 vehicle, which will be unveiled in its world premiere at the exhibition. In addition, several international exhibitors will present weapon systems, electronic systems, and other specialised solutions built on Tatra chassis platforms.
MSM GROUP, within the CSG, brings together companies primarily specialized in the production of medium- and large-caliber ammunition. These include the Slovak companies ZVS and VOP Nováky, the Czech company ZVI, and the Spanish company Fábrica de Municiones de Granada. Visitors will be able to view 105 mm and 120 mm tank ammunition compliant with NATO standards. Also on display will be 105 mm and 155 mm NATO-standard artillery ammunition, as well as training ammunition for tanks and artillery systems. The medium-caliber ammunition portfolio will be represented by 30×173 mm, 30×165 mm, 20×102 mm, and 30×113 mm cartridges, suitable for applications including infantry fighting vehicles and light armored vehicles. 122 mm unguided rockets will also be showcased. The portfolio of companies within MSM Group further includes pyrotechnic components and fuzes, energetic materials, propellants, and powder charges for tank and artillery ammunition. In addition, products related to the production of TNT and nitrocellulose from the portfolio of the German company MSM Walsrode will be presented.
During the exhibition, Excalibur International will officially unveil the Trident air defence system – a modular solution designed for short-, medium-, and long-range air defence missions, whose final configuration can be tailored to the customer’s operational requirements. Excalibur International serves as the system integrator, finances its development and customization according to customer needs, and markets the solution worldwide. In addition to guided missiles, the system can integrate gun-based weapon systems, counter-drone and counter-unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) capabilities, electronic warfare assets, and jamming systems. For the Trident system, the Czech company Retia develops and manufactures radar systems and supplies the command-and-control system. Tatra Trucks provides the chassis platforms, Tatra Defence is responsible for the development and production of armoured cabins, superstructures, and launcher platforms, while the Turkish company Roketsan supplies the guided missiles, including transport-launch containers. The company will also display a model of the Korkut air defence system, developed in cooperation with the Turkish company Aselsan. A model of the Deep Strike unmanned system will also be presented, while additional projects will be showcased through electronic presentations.
Within the CSG Group exhibition area, Excalibur Army will present its DITA 155 mm and MORANA 155 mm artillery systems through digital presentations. These are modern NATO-standard systems; DITA has already secured customers, while MORANA is currently undergoing a series of demanding live-fire trials. Visitors will also be able to learn more about the TREVA-30 recovery and evacuation vehicle based on the Tatra Force 8×8 chassis, the Patriot 4×4 armored vehicle, the RM-70 Vampire multiple rocket launcher system, and the AM-70EX and AM-50EX bridge-laying vehicles.
Eurosatory 2026 will also feature the new CFL-120 Karpat vehicle, a medium tank resulting from cooperation between CSG Group and the Turkish company FNSS. The CFL-120 Karpat is a versatile tracked combat platform in the medium-weight category designed for both European and international customers. It combines tank-level firepower, high mobility, modular protection, and reduced operational and logistical requirements. The project brings together FNSS’s expertise in tracked armored platforms, the industrial capabilities of CSG Group’s Slovak company MSM Land Systems, and Leonardo’s Hitfact MkII turret armed with a 120 mm gun.
Retia, based in Pardubice, will present four systems designed for modern ground forces, air defence, and combat vehicles at Eurosatory. Among them is the ReCUBE GBAD system, a command-and-control center for ground-based air defence housed in a mobile standardized container transported on a Tatra Force 8×8 vehicle. It provides integrated real-time control of sensors and effectors, enables the rapid deployment of air defence batteries in the field, and utilizes optical, radio, and terrestrial data links. Another exhibit will be the SAAV system, presented in model form and also designed for installation in a mobile container. SAAV is a situational awareness system for ground vehicles that provides an automated 360-degree view of the surrounding environment. It employs artificial intelligence, day and night cameras, integrated GPU units, and centralized data processing. A further system on display will be Clear Sky, which extends SAAV’s capabilities into the air domain. This AI-powered application delivers real-time 360-degree situational awareness, focusing on the detection, identification, classification, and tracking of aerial threats, particularly unmanned aerial systems (UAS). The fourth exhibited system will be ReINS, a highly accurate autonomous inertial navigation system with GPS support. It ensures reliable determination of position, heading, tilt, and orientation for ground platforms, even under challenging operating conditions.
As part of the CSG Group exhibition at Eurosatory 2026, Eldis Pardubice will display models of its flagship airport radar systems. These will include the latest RL-3000 primary 3D surveillance radar and the PAR-NG precision approach radar, which builds on the commercial success of the PAR-E system. Both new products are based on a software-defined architecture that significantly simplifies maintenance and lifecycle support. Also exhibiting within the CSG Group stand will be AviaNera Technologies, a company closely linked to Excalibur International. In Paris, it will showcase its compact turbojet and turbofan engines designed for modern weapon platforms, including cruise missiles, aerial target systems, and anti-ship missiles. Company representatives will also introduce additional propulsion units currently under development, as well as the company’s strategic development projects.
Companies belonging to the CSG Ammo+ division, which brings together small-caliber ammunition manufacturers, will also be represented at the joint CSG stand. These include Fiocchi Munizioni, Federal, Speer, and CCI, which will present a broad portfolio of ammunition for pistols, revolvers, rifles, and shotguns. Thanks to the combined production capacities of these companies and brands, CSG ranks among the global leaders in the small-caliber ammunition industry.
