Nova Systems has partnered with Cranfield University in the UK to deliver three Explosive Ordnance and Guided Weapon training courses in Australia.
“This collaboration aims to address the specific needs of the Australian Defence Force and related industry partners supporting Australia’s Guided Weapon and Explosive Ordnance initiatives,” said Claude Daniel, Nova Systems GWEO Portfolio Manager. “Nova Systems is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) and has extensive experience developing and delivering the latest cutting-edge training solutions for complex capabilities.”
Cranfield University Professor of Environmental Science and Risk Management, Tracey Temple, said: “This exciting educational collaboration is enhancing the already strong relationship between the Australian Defence Sector and Cranfield University in the scientific and technical field of explosive ordnance engineering awareness.”
The Explosive Ordnance and Guided Weapon courses are designed to provide participants with contemporary technical content, enhancing their ability to contribute to both current and future acquisition and sustainment projects.
Three courses will be offered:
- Introduction to Explosive Ordnance Awareness and Engineering Principles,
- Propellants, Pyrotechnics, and Rocket Motors,
- Ballistics, Delivery, and Guided Weapons.
They will cover a wide range of topics including the properties and applications of explosives, propellants, pyrotechnics, and guided weapons, as well as the management, handling, classification, and testing of ordnance, munitions, and explosives. Additionally, principles of propulsion systems and explosives risk management will be thoroughly explored. The first course commences in March 2025 and includes both face-to-face and virtual elements.
