about us

At LAHAB Defence Systems, we go beyond transforming the entire ammunition value chain. We leverage ground-breaking technology and deep domain knowledge to create ammunition designs built for continually-evolving mission requirements. 

Operating at the heart of the defence and security supply network, we design, develop, manufacture and test a range of state-of-the-art medium and large calibre munitions – from grenades to artillery shells – ‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬working to the highest safety and environmental standards. We play a vital role in innovating and developing the capabilities of the armed forces and the wider defence sector in the UAE and across the region.

WHAT WE
OFFER

GROUND-BREAKING TECHNOLOGY. DEEP DOMAIN KNOWLEDGE.

what we offer

We offer expert support throughout the ammunition lifecycle — from assembly to decommissioning — by harnessing the latest technologies and advanced manufacturing capabilities. Our Continuous Improvement Programme adopts cutting-edge technologies including process optimisation and, in the future, robotic production using high-precision tools.

Based on the most advanced CNC machinery, our fabrication and production is CE and ISO compliant, and is overseen by a revolutionary, centralised live monitoring web-based platform, capable of taking an instant picture of production and capacity of any calibre, tender, project or delivery schedule. With built-in quality control, it reduces end-of-production cycle rejects to virtually zero.
