Lockheed Martin and Rheinmetall signed a new cooperation memorandum (MoU) during the ILA 2024 exhibition in Berlin.
MBDA has signed a contract with Romanian IAR Brasov to support the integration of the Marte ER onto Airbus H215M helicopter for the Romanian Navy.
According to a relevant announcement, Marte ER will provide a state-of-the-art capability to carry out anti-surface warfare missions. This contract marks a major step of cooperation between MBDA and the Romanian Armed Forces.
MBDA will work in partnership with IAR Brasov and Airbus as well as with the other partners involved to achieve the integration of Marte ER and a full integration at the mission system level.
This contract is a new success for the multiplatform Marte family of missiles, which is already integrated, among others, on a number of platforms for the Italian Armed Forces.
Marte ER represents the latest generation of the family and it is designed to operate in all weather conditions at ranges over 100km.
The missile features a highly flexible mission profile allowing for automatic and manual waypoints, salvo firing and attacks on land coordinates, with specific methods of countering ships’ hard- and soft-kill defences.
