Acceptance Testing with the Finnish Ministry of Defence

24 April, 2024

In mid-April, the acceptance testing of our highly acclaimed 122mm artillery rocket G-2000 was conducted during the visit of EDePro’s expert team to Finland. Invited by the Finnish Ministry of Defence, the purpose of this trip was to attend the verification of G-2000’s performances, renowned for its extended range. The successful testing highlights the recognition of our product and signals its integration into Finland's military arsenal, a notable achievement considering the recent accession of this country to the NATO alliance.  

At the Finnish Ministry of Defense's field test, we successfully conducted live-fire exercises, during which MLRS G-2000 122mm demonstrated excellent precision. Furthermore, the testing confirmed the compatibility of our rockets with the existing launchers of the Finnish Defence Forces, as well as the rocket's excellent durability under different environmental conditions. Our 122mm rocket specification provides a unique combination of extended range, precision and compatibility with existing launchers for 122mm GRAD rockets. 

With over 30 years of experience in developing 122mm rocket programmes, EDePro stands as one of the leaders in artillery ammunition production in Europe. Our standout product, MLRS rocket G-2000, boasts enhanced performance and quality. It is among the most precise artillery rockets on the market, with an extended 122mm rocket range of up to 40.2 km. This is the highest range among all rockets of this calibre, with a CEP of less than 1%. Additionally, we have been recognized as one of the TOP 10 companies for artillery ammunition production in Europe by an American magazine Aerospace & Defense Review.

Our collaboration with the Finnish Ministry of Defence (Puolustusministeriö) has been facilitated through our long-standing partner, the Israeli company Elbit Systems Ltd. Shortly, we anticipate the official introduction of the G-2000 rockets into the arsenal of the Finnish Armed Forces, followed by the implementation of the already signed contract with the Finnish government for the delivery of a significant quantity of G-2000 rockets. 

The company looks forward to building upon this success that confirms the overall reliability of the G-2000 rocket and the fact that we can provide an excellent product for a competitive 122mm rocket price. This accomplishment not only reflects our continued growth but paves the way for the acceptance testing of other rockets within EDePro's 122mm artillery programme and possible new partnerships with other Western European countries.
