National Guard Ministry wins excellence award for military industry localization

Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of National Guard has received the Excellence Award for Military Industry Localization, recognizing its efforts to localize technical support contracts for helicopters under government procurement agreements.

The award was presented during the Military Industries Forum, organized by the General Authority for Military Industries.

The award is one of the authority’s initiatives to honor military and security entities, as well as companies in the sector, highlighting their effective contributions toward achieving Saudi Vision 2030’s goal of localizing more than 50% of military spending by 2030.

This achievement reflects the ministry’s efforts to strengthen reliance on national capabilities in maintenance and technical support, supporting supply sustainability and enhancing the efficiency of the military system.

The recognition also builds on the ongoing support from the country’s leadership for military industry localization, and the commitment of Prince Abdullah bin Bandar bin Abdulaziz, Minister of National Guard, to developing the ministry’s capabilities and advancing its contribution to Vision 2030 targets.
