Support, Training and Innovation: Arquus Unveils its Solutions at the 2025 Defense Industry Forum
As
a leading provider of support to French and international land forces, Arquus
puts its expertise
and experience at the service
of military vehicle
operational readiness. At the Forum Entreprises Défense (FED) held on 8-9 October 2025 in Satory,
Arquus presented its latest solutions in support, services and technological
innovations, which are central to its commitment to the French armed forces, at
its indoor and outdoor stands.
One of the solutions was Zetros. Combining robustness and
reliability, this vehicle is specifically designed to meet the demands of the most
challenging environments. This range, dedicated to extreme driving conditions, benefits from Arquus’ experience
combined with Daimler’s expertise in severe operational capabilities.
This blend of know-how ensures
a vehicle built for durability and ease of maintenance,
with
a design that facilitates servicing (fixed cab, optimized access to main components
and repairable parts), as well as an extensive dealership network to support
the vehicle.
Arquus
emphasises the valise SERUM, developed and validated in the Scorpion programme
already deployed to the army forces.
Designed to facilitate the field maintenance technicians, this compact and
robust solution is a perfect answer to the army’s operational demands. It
perfectly illustrates Arquus’ approach: providing forces with the means to
detect, locate, and resolve faults more quickly.
This
solution supports technicians throughout the entire diagnostic process, at
every stage: calculators’ interrogation, fault code
detection, troubleshooting trees (ALPs), and
intervention sheets. As such, this tool directly
contributes to reducing
downtime and maximising vehicle
readiness. Additionally, Arquus also showcased the Agueris solution, the
maintenance simulator, and its driving simulator, immersive tools that allow
the reproduction of realistic breakdown, intervention, and driving scenarios. Also on display was the VMT maintenance simulator, developed in partnership with Agueris,
which offers maintenance technicians the opportunity to follow complete
maintenance procedures in an immersive
3D environment.
Campus
Cockerill Commercy, a unique training and experimentation centre serving the
armed forces, is now a major asset in Arquus'
service offering. Beyond
its training mission,
this campus also stands out for its testing and
trialing capabilities.
Arquus also relies on additive manufacturing to strengthen operational autonomy.
In partnership with Vistory, Arquus is
continuing its work to enable the production of spare parts directly in line
with operational needs, reducing
costs and logistics lead times.
Arquus is also continuing the operational development of HUMS (Health
and Usage Monitoring Systems).
Already implemented on the GRIFFON,
these systems enable precise monitoring of critical
parameters such as oil and the transfer
case.
A
French defence company, Arquus is an expert in protected mobility and a
European leader in the design, production,
and maintenance of armored vehicles, integrated into the John Cockerill
industrial group since July 2024.
