In the German city of Nürnberg, from 23 to 25 February 2026, Enforce Tac is taking place, one of the leading international trade fairs in the fields of internal and external security and the defence industry. It is a specialized B2B event focused on innovation and advanced technologies in security, tactical equipment, communication systems, surveillance, and integrated defence solutions.
More than one thousand exhibitors from over fifty countries are participating in the fair, and the Croatian defence industry is being presented for the first time through a joint national stand. A total of 26 Croatian companies are exhibiting at the stand, collectively showcasing the strength, innovation, and competitiveness of the domestic defence sector.
The national stand covers 400 square meters of exhibition space and significantly contributes to strengthening the international visibility of the Croatian defence industry. This presentation opens up new opportunities for export, production growth, and further technological development.
“Our companies are proven suppliers with top-quality products. They have clear development ambitions, they want to expand capacities, invest in new products, strengthen exports, and digitalize their operations. Trade fairs are a key venue for further growth and development, especially Enforce Tac, which brings together both government institutions and security services. This is a decisive moment, as defence policy is becoming industrial policy forming the basis for innovation, new technologies, and economic growth. In this context, we are active participants, not merely observers,” said Luka Burilović, President of the Croatian Chamber of Economy.
The Shipyard of Special Facilities is presenting projects from the segment of military and patrol vessels at the fair:
- the offshore patrol corvette OOB-C BIS91
- the fast attack vessel FAV250
- the coastal patrol vessels OOB-31 “Omiš” and OOB-32 “Umag,” built for the Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Croatia for the needs of the Croatian Navy.
“Coastal patrol vessels play a key role in protecting internal waters and in carrying out combat and logistical tasks. They have been developed in accordance with NATO standards and are adapted to contemporary maritime security challenges. Growing demand for modern coastal and combat vessels, as well as for dual-use solutions (civilian and military) creates additional opportunities for shipyard’s engagement in strengthening European defence capabilities and security cooperation,” emphasized Darko Pappo, Member of the Management Board of DIV Group.
Enforce Tac is a strictly professional trade fair and is not open to the general public. It is intended for representatives of the police, armed forces, special units, and state security services.
In recent years, attendance has continuously increased, and the event is recognized as a platform where numerous companies premiere new products and technologies, particularly in the fields of police and military applications.
Special emphasis is placed on interoperability and the integration of various security systems, which represents one of the key topics of contemporary European security policy.
