MARTE ER represents the third generation within the MARTE family of missile systems, and is derived from MARTE MK2, which is already in service with the Italian Navy and overseas countries.

MARTE ER is a lightweight, long range ASuW missile designed to be deployed from a wide range of platforms:

  • Helicopters (eg. NH-90)
  • Maritime Patrol Aircraft
  • Fast jets (eg. Eurofighter Typhoon)
  • Coastal batteries
  • Large to small naval crafts

The weapon is designed to operate in all weather conditions and to deliver its highly effective lethal effect at ranges over 100km. Its highly flexible mission profile allows for automatic and manual waypoints, salvo firing and attacks on land coordinates, with specific methods of countering ship hard and soft defences.

MARTE ER's multi-platform capability allows customers to maximise the system's benefits with a very flexible and efficient logistics package.
