RSSIn the context of a wider relationship between Safran and Finmeccanica, 4561 Morpho (Safran group) and Selex 2207 Elsag (Finmeccanica Group) have signed a “Partnership Framework Agreement” for development of commercial and industrial operations in the field of road enforcement and safety equipment which could lead to a joint venture.

The partners say they wish to join their resources to address the fast-growing market of road enforcement and safety, taking advantage of the complementary nature of their products and technologies in the fields of vehicle identification, speed measurement and red light violation.
