FN Herstal is the Defence and Security Division of FN Browning Group.
Headquartered in Belgium, FN Herstal designs and manufactures a complete range of state-of-the-art solutions developed around small calibre firearms and associated ammunition to meet and support its customer base's missions worldwide.
FN Herstal is a partner of choice for both users and OEMs who are looking for a reliable and safe way to arm new or in-service aircraft. Proof of this is the 5,200 systems fitted, and the wide range of aircraft on which they have been certified. Current users include the US and several other NATO and allied armed forces.
Armed forces can be deployed for a wide variety of missions, and aircraft are an important investment.
The FN® airborne weapon systems are designed around FN® machine guns (FN MAG® and world exclusive FN® M3) to guarantee full mission capability while ensuring protection for the carrier and maximum safety for the crew. They can be mounted and dismounted to allow easy reconfiguration of the aircraft to suit mission requirements.
The FN® airborne weapon systems are divided into two categories: fixed axial systems and crew served systems.
Fixed axial systems are forward firing pods with FN® guns and/or rockets operated by the pilot. FN Herstal can also provide a complete package of equipment including control and aiming systems, and equipment for testing and maintenance.
Crew served weapon systems feature an FN® machine gun fitted on a buffered mounting adapted to both the carrier and the position (door, window, ramp or external) on the carrier.
In addition to the design and production of these reliable airborne solutions, FN Herstal provides full support and management of the product integration onto the platform, full operator training, and the highest quality after-sales service.
The company is ISO 9001, AS /EN 9100, ISO 14001 and Nadcap (National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program) certified.
