At

to supply an Indirect Precision Attack capability for land and naval artillery
in 2035 and beyond. This represents the fourth and latest of MBDA’s
annual Concept Visions projects, demonstrating once again the company’s

The HOPLITE system consists of a mission control system,
and two missile variants, HOPLITE-S and HOPLITE- L both of which can
fly 70km in under two minutes at low altitude or up to 160km at high
altitude in under four minutes when the way is clear. The system is
able to quickly and safely traverse contested airspaces, and closely
coordinate salvo firings to provide an exceptional fire support capability
to the front line. HOPLITE’s one shot one kill precision simplifies
operations while reducing collateral damage risk and mission cost. HOPLITE
offers a true step change in indirect precision effects at range for
2035 and beyond. |
