With ADVENT, BAHA and shooting simulator references in Nigeria, HAVELSAN will participate in AFRIDEX 2026 to present its solutions and meet military delegations, government representatives and industry partners.
HAVELSAN will participate in AFRIDEX 2026, taking place on 26–29 October at Eko Atlantic in Lagos, Nigeria.

HAVELSAN’s references in Nigeria include exports of the ADVENT Combat Management System, BAHA autonomous unmanned aerial vehicle and shooting simulators.

The company combines surveillance, detection and response coordination capabilities to support border protection and critical infrastructure security. Its integration expertise enables platforms, sensors and systems from different suppliers to work together, helping customers build on existing investments.

ADVENT enables the integrated management of naval sensors and weapons, while the DOOB command-and-control family supports information sharing and operational coordination at different command levels.
