Eviden participated in the inauguration of Belgium’s first national training platform for the Scorpion Combat Information System (SICS) in Bourg-Léopold, and the platform provided the Land Force and the Directorate-General for Material Resources (DGMR) with autonomy to train SICS operators and system administrators.

The commissioning marked a milestone in the CaMo partnership between Belgium and France; the DGMR selected Eviden to create and deploy the SICS training platforms, integrate associated Thales radios, and deliver initial training for the main trainers.

SICS is an integrated communication, coordination and command system that connects vehicles, sensors and units within a single network and provides RTSA, shared tactical maps, geolocation of own and friendly units, and facilitates rapid and consistent information exchange between different levels.

Belgian Defense set up three specialised SICS learning environments and made them operational between June and autumn 2025, with an official commissioning in February 2026. Training for operational personnel took place in Bourg-Léopold and Marche-en-Famenne on validated equipment identical to systems fitted to Scorpion vehicles; Peutie hosted training for system administrators, CIS specialists and other technical profiles focused on configuration, network architecture and radio integration.

“The goal is to transform the Belgian armed forces into an information-enhanced army: an army that optimally uses information to strengthen its combat capabilities. This is essential in modern conflicts, where the speed of information and coordination make the difference.” said Major General Lieven Vanheste.

“We are proud to support the DGMR and the Belgian Army's Land Forces in this key step of enabling their operators to adopt the Scorpion Combat Information System. Close collaboration with the Belgian forces is very important to us. This proximity was one of the key ingredients for the successful deployment and adoption of SICS in France.” said Fabrice Laclef. The infrastructure was designed for a lifespan of 15 to 20 years in the CaMo ecosystem.
