Programme: European Defence Fund
Call: Call for proposals focused on the increase of production capacities for explosives (EDF-ASAP-2023-LS-XPL)
Type of action: EDF-LS EDF Lump Sum Grants
Type of MGA: EDF Lump Sum Grant [EDF-AG-LS]
Deadline model: single-stage
Planned opening date: 18 October 2023
Deadline date: 13 December 2023 17:00:00 Brussels time

Scope:
Any eligible action as defined in Article 8 of Regulation (EU) 2023/1525, that addresses the increase of production capacities in the area of explosives, and that aims at supporting the ramp-up of the production capacity and timely delivery of artillery ammunition, as well as mortars and rockets, with potential positive spill over effects on other ground-to-ground ammunition as well as missiles. Proposed actions should specifically focus on the reduction of lead production time, in order to incentivise rapid adjustments leading to increased responsiveness of the supply chains.
