At Euronaval 2024, Naval Group shared the latest with its "Multi-purpose and Modular Launching System" (MPLS), a RAM-like close-in weapon system (CIWS) which takes the concept a step further: By being Multi-purpose and Modular, the launcher brings revolutionary capabilities and is particularly relevant in today's context. First introduced at the Naval Innovation Days (NID) a year ago, Naval Group’s MPLS marks a significant technological advancement. The launcher is being developed in partnership with experts from the French Navy and the French defense procurement agency (DGA), in order to offer 100% user-centered innovation and to meet the new operational challenges of navies and their budgetary constraints. It involves several ammunition partners (such as KNDS and Thales) and suggests other future collaborations for next generation ammunition. My story for Naval News, here.
