Military vehicle batteries and beyond

Customer-driven design

Each military program is unique with a different set of power and energy requirements. A combination of extensive program experience, electrochemical expertise, world class manufacturing, and close working relationships with our customers allows Saft the capability to design each energy storage system to handle the most stringent requirements.

High-energy systems offer a combination of power and energy for military battery applications that need the benefit of high rate charge and discharge with significant energy requirements.

  • Forward Operating Bases
  • Military Ground Vehicles
  • Underwater Vehicles

High-power systems are designed for military battery applications requiring longer operation times, combined with high power levels.

  • Weapons Systems
  • Navy Ships
  • Control Stations
  • Military Satellites

Very-high-power systems are offered for applications requiring either high discharge power, low temperature power or good regen capability.

  • Directed Energy Weapons
  • High Power Microwaves
  • Military Aircraft
