BAE Systems sets sights on Vietnam

BVS10 – BAE HADR-solution

BAE Systems is undertaking a project to expand its understanding of Vietnam, with a view to potential market penetration. The move coincides with the United States’ recent decision to lift its long-standing military embargo on the Southeast Asian country.

Nick Glover, BAE Systems’ Southeast Asia vice president, told IHS Jane’s recently that the company is “assessing” Vietnam and potential opportunities, not only in its defence market but in adjacent sectors such as homeland security.

“Vietnam could be an interesting market,” he said. “We have been assessing industrial capability within the country and we are looking at potential opportunities. It could be a market where we look to enter through Applied Intelligence [BAE Systems’ cyber security division] or our HADR [Humanitarian Assistance, Disaster Relief] products.”
