The ability to strike strategic and military targets with exceptional precision from extended stand-off ranges has become a key operational requirement. MBDA's experience in this aera has already been proven with the STORM SHADOW / SCALP air-launched cruise missile. This combat-proven missile system, with its unmatched capabilities, was the result of a multi-national European programme (France, Italy and UK).

Bringing together these European skills, MBDA has developped NCM (Naval Cruise Missile) to meet the requirement issued by the French Ministry of Defence for a long-range cruise missile capable of being launched from surface and below surface vessels. This French programme is knonw as MdCN or Missile de Croisière Naval, intended for the French Navy's FREMM frigates and the Barracuda submarine.

NCM provides a unique operational capability, with very long range high-precision strike against High Value sensitive targets.

The missile hass been designed for vertical launch from the compact A70 SYLVER vertical launcher which is also capable of housing other MBDA missiles such as the ASTER family of air defence missiles.

NCM has also been designed to be launched from the 21 inch torpedo tubes of a submerged submarine.
