The South African government reaffirmed its commitment to the African Aerospace and Defense (AAD) 2024 event by endorsing it as a national showcase. This was made clear with high-level visits to OTT Solutions’ stand in Hangar 5, where President and Commander-in-Chief Cyril Ramaphosa, the Minister of Defense, two Deputy Ministers of Defense, members of the Portfolio Committee for Defense and Military Veterans, the Chief of the South African National Defense Force (SANDF), and a number of senior officers and foreign dignitaries were in attendance.
OTT Solutions is a strategic asset in support and aligning with the SANDF broader development goals.
OTT Solutions is part of the South African Defense Industry (SADI) and an active member of the AMD board, and continues to be a strategic asset in supporting SANDF's broader development objectives. The successful completion of the Ratel Service Life Extension Programme (SLEP) underscored this role, highlighting the cost-effective and internationally benchmarked modernization of military equipment, including the Ratel Infantry Fighting Vehicle.
