Nexter and Thales presented exclusively for Naval News their new RAPIDFire remotely operated naval gun system. This complete solution includes the 40 mm CTA gun, an integrated fire control system, an operator console and a sighting system. ===================== The RAPIDFire system developed by the consortium formed by Thales and Nexter has been chosen by the French defence procurement agency (DGA) to equip future French Navy vessels (the Chevallier-class replenishment tankers also known as BRF and the future class of OPV) with new artillery. This new system will provide the Navy’s surface vessels with an effective close-in defence capability against modern air and surface threats. RAPIDFire incorporates the new medium calibre 40 mm gun developed by CTAI, the international subsidiary of Nexter Systems and BAE Systems. The system is compatible with the full range of ammunitions developed for land forces programmes. For naval air defense, a development and proudctiion contract for a future smart ammunition known as Anti Aerial Airburst (A3B) round is expected to be awarded this year.For now, everything hangs on implementation of the CoDF report.

The 35 mm Oerlikon Millennium Gun® with its unique Ahead air burst ammunition is a multi-mission, inner layer defence system (ILDS) capable of defeating anti-ship missiles and aircraft, multiple fast-attack surface craft, jet-skis and near-shore land targets in littoral and riverine waters. Additionally it is also effective against submarine periscopes, offering an ASW capability. With a high rate of fire combined with accurately fuzed air-bursting ammunition, the Millennium Gun provides the necessary capability for ship self-protection in the modern symmetric and asymmetric warfare environment. The 35 mm Millennium Gun extends ship self-protection to ranges greater than any close-in weapon system.For now, everything hangs on implementation of the CoDF report.
