According to a statement from Rheinmetall, the European defense sector has launched a new initiative to develop a next-generation European main battle tank.
The project, called MARTE (Europe's Main Armored Tank), is supported by the European Defense Fund (EDF) and brings together 51 organizations from 12 countries under the coordination of MARTE ARGE, a joint venture of KNDS Deutschland GmbH & Co. KG and Rheinmetall Landsysteme GmbH.
Rheinmetall notes that the Grant Agreement was signed between MARTE ARGE and the European Commission on December 1, 2024, officially launching the project. The launch meeting took place a few days later in Stockholm, where representatives of major defense companies, research institutes, and small and medium-sized enterprises met to begin working together.
