Oshkosh Defense Europe B.V. is the European Arm of Oshkosh Defense, a US military-vehicle maker. Its role is to support the company’s European defence business and vehicle programmes.
On 29 September, Kongsberg named Oshkosh Defense Europe in its plan to fit counter-drone weapon stations to Dutch Army vehicles. That makes the Dutch entity a commercial link between a vehicle maker and a weapons-system supplier.
The arrangement shows why the European Arm matters beyond vehicle delivery. It can connect Oshkosh platforms with locally relevant defence equipment for European customers.
