AKERON MP is the only 5th generation missile in service combat proven in the world. It has been operationally tested and proven in extreme climates (desert and sub-arctic conditions). The system’s design includes the growth potential necessary for future modern land combat systems.

At Eurosatory 2024, MBDA unveiled for the first time, alongside Safran, a long-range guided rocket concept, the FLP-T Thundart. The FLP-T must be able to accurately strike fixed targets up to a distance of around 150 km. Future evolutions of the rocket would give it a range of 500 km along with the ability to strike moving targets at sea (in a coastal defence role) thanks to an IIR seeker.

MBDA also unveiled the Land Cruise Missile (LCM) system, a new ground-launched Deep Precision Strike capability, to meet the needs of the new strategic environment on the battlefield. The Land Cruise Missile (LCM) builds on all of MBDA’s expertise in the field of Deep Precision Strike and is based on the combat-proven Naval Cruise Missile (NCM) in-service on French Navy frigates and attack submarines.
