Surprised not up more

[primarch1] 29/9/2023 08:30

Great times ahead for shareholders

[johndoe23] 28/9/2023 15:24

Judging by delayed trades, could be right

[gswredland] 28/9/2023 15:21

MM's need to fill an order?

[universalmind] 28/9/2023 14:11

Who's shaking it and why?

[harrywilliam] 28/9/2023 11:12

Looks like a tree shake to me

[gswredland] 28/9/2023 11:06

That's what I thought!

[johndoe23] 28/9/2023 10:47

What on earth

[harrywilliam] 15/9/2023 15:23

I'm assuming they must have asked permission to say that so looks odds on to me

"The Company has yet to be awarded a production and supply contract related to the US Navy Mk38 MOD4 weapon system but the awarding of this maintenance supply and service contract substantially increases our confidence that we shall also be awarded such a production contract from "NAVSEA", shortly."

[johndoe23] 08/9/2023 15:32

Until today ha

[gswredland] 08/9/2023 08:31

The spread used to be really wide on these but now much more acceptable

[johndoe23] 08/9/2023 08:13

See NT has added one of his largest positions

[westofengland] 05/9/2023 17:13

This was raised at the AGM and they are very comfortable this situation will be resolved favourably.

[norbert colon] 05/9/2023 15:42

I can only suggest it's possible given improved communication with the market from mgt over the last 2 years and the known materiality of the news. Either way we will find out on or before early Dec.

On 22 June, MSI said that they were confident that the delayed virtually complete and ready for dispatch VSHORAD order would be fully resolved shortly. MSI are not renowned for RNS releases, but are people expecting them to issue one when this matter is resolved? (either positively or negatively).

Yes a useful historical article Nick - the military love their use of acronyms and various nomenclatures - gets a little confusing at times.


Quoted Mk44 ‘cannon’ numbers likely to be higher than Mk38 Mod4 ‘mount’ numbers as spare cannons are often required/ordered for a single mount.

[tudes100] 04/9/2023 05:38

Article a little out of date but provides a little more detail on possible broader roll out of Mark 44's (on MSI mounts) than just DDG's & USCG.

My interpretation of the Coast Guard budgets for FY24 suggested funds allocated for 10 x Mk38 Mod3 (the BAE 25mm system) OPC, FRC & WMEC. And 2x Mk38 Mod 4 systems for the PSC's.

[norbert colon] 03/9/2023 13:58

Yes correct although as you say it's a little unclear on what the current plans are here albeit the most recent budget alludes to the coastguard getting some Mod4's.Just one or two a year would be good!

[fft] 03/9/2023 13:47

Hi Norbert, there is also the US coastguard. It was unclear last year as too how many would be equipped with the mod4. Unfortunately it looked like no plans to upgrade the BAE mod3 to MSI mod4.https://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2022/04/usgcs-cutters-to-receive-30mm-mark-44/Have you any info on how the USGC orders are progressing?.
