NATO Army Armaments Group (NAAG) / Groupe OTAN Sur l' Armement des Forces Terrestres (NAAG)
The NATO Army Armaments Group (AC/225-NAAG) is one of the three Main Armaments Groups (MAG) subordinate to NATO's Conference of National Armaments Directors (CNAD).
The mission of
the NAAG is to support nations achieving the objectives of
NATO
Land
Forces'
armaments cooperation
to ensure SACEUR has the capabilities necessary to fight and win wars.
Through the NAAG’s formal and informal subordinate
groups, the NAAG promotes interoperability of Alliance, as well as
Partner, Armed Forces by means of information exchange, materiel
standardization, and cooperative activities.
NAAG meets twice a year, normally in Summer (June) and in Winter (December or January) at NATO Headquarters in Brussels. Senior National Representatives - with their supporting National Delegations, representatives of NATO Military Authorities, representatives of other related NATO and external bodies and, when appropriate, Chairmen of Subordinate Groups participate.
Le Groupe OTAN sur l'armement des forces terrestres, ou en abrégé NAAG, est un des trois groupes principaux sur l'armement relevant de la Conférence des Directeurs nationaux des armements (CDNA). La CDNA, quant à elle, relève directement du Conseil de l'Atlantique Nord (CN), l'autorité suprême de l'OTAN.
La responsabilité du NAAG consiste à promouvoir, par l'intermédiaire de ses groupes subordonnés de niveau 2, la coopération et la normalisation par l'échange d'informations et au moyen d'activités collectives dans le domaine des armements terrestres.
