Anti-ship missile technology and development
Overview
Developments in anti-ship missile technology are focusing on increased precision, autonomous capabilities, and new deployment platforms. Stark Defence and MBDA have partnered to adapt the Sea Venom anti-ship missile for use on the Vanta 12, a 12-metre unmanned surface vehicle (USV). This USV utilizes the Minerva AI platform for autonomous monitoring and threat detection.
Broadly, the anti-ship missile market is evolving toward high-speed propulsion and network-enabled targeting. Within MBDA’s specific programs, there is a transition from the Sea Skua Mk 2 concept toward the FASGW/ANL program, a joint UK and France initiative. This successor weapon is expected to feature electro-optical guidance and a datalink to engage vessels up to 6,000 tonnes.
