Army Recognition:
In parallel, a number of additional firings were made to test the capacity of the system beyond its normal operating range. These firings, in which the seeker was locked onto the target before firing, confirm the exceptional performance of the MMP acquisition and guidance sequence.
They will contribute to building the confidence of future users, who may have to respond effectively under highly challenging operational conditions.
The MMP programme plans a total inter-force installed base of 400 firing units and 1,950 missiles by 2025. The first hardware to be delivered is currently in use for user training. The weapons system is expected to be deployed for external operations before the end of this year.
