DSEI 2021 day 4: MBDA missiles, TKMS XLUUV, MSI Defence Seahawk, IAI Sea Serpent anti-ship missile

Final day at DSEI 2021 in London, UK. Naval News' Editor-in-Chief, Xavier Vavasseur, takes you around the show floor and comments some of the new systems on display. We start with MBDA who was showcasing its future missile concepts (related to FCASW) as well as current portfolio of anti-ship missiles (SPEAR, SPEAR EW, Exocet, Marte, Sea Venom and Maritime Brimstone) and naval air defense solutions (Dragonfire, Aster B1 NT and CAMM / Sea Ceptor). We then take a close look at a scale model of the XLUUV on the TKMS stand and the MSI Defence Systems' Seahawk 30mm naval gun system which was recently selected by the US Navy. Finally we talked to IAI's Malcolm McKenzie to learn more details about Sea Serpent.

MBDA is probably one of the most successful European military and civilian partnership that works well.

[@MostlyPennyCat]

When you compare what they can get done for a fraction of the budget spent over in America, it's pretty amazing stuff.

[@sergarlantyrell7847]

FCAS W... Because we need a 3rd FCAS acronym to make things more confusing. It would be interesting to know what they class as a "smart" missile.

[@baremetalmafia]

Could that guy word salad any better about sea serpent?? That was top level “talk for 5 mins and say nothin”

[@Max-lf3tx]

He'll fit right in at the MOD, I've never heard people talk about so much but deliver so little.

[@phooogle]

Is the hypersonic version discontinued?

[@AB-gi3qy]

Sea Serpent certainly looks like a strong contender for the RN's I-SSGW requirement. Hopefully a decision is made soon.

[@AB-gi3qy]

@Varangian Guard I think all the options look pretty good and at this point any of them would be a big upgrade over the current harpoon. The NSM does have a much shorter range and warhead than the some of the other choices so it'll be interesting to see what the RN go for.

[@AB-gi3qy]

@Varangian Guard That is true but I can't see the MOD fitting it to any other platforms than the Frigates. So one question I do have is if the missiles are sea skimming and fly very low level, is there actually any benefit to having stealth?

[@MardukTheSunGodInsideMe]

Where's Lockheed Martin with the Sea Dragon?

[@fisophia1734]

I like spear 3 then exocet, she look more elegant.😊👍🥰 Aster also look beautiful

[@WWeronko]

As far as I know the SPEAR 3 (1:41) is still in development and will not be operational until 2025.

[@davidhouseman4328]

Not sure how far through development it is but it's definitely not integrated on the F35 yet.

[@dogsnads5634]

@@davidhouseman4328 Drop tests on Typhoon so far, no powered firings yet.

[@jackseaward2330]

F-35 shouldnt be getting it until Block IV in 2027...

[@sergarlantyrell7847]

Interesting though that the "Sea Ceptor" (which I thought was just a Royal Navy term) is displayed in a quad-packed configuration from what looks to be a representation of a mk 41 VLS cell. I wonder if this is a reference to how the missiles will be carried on Royal Navy ships...

[@davidhouseman4328]

More likely representative of it being a sales event so showing different possibilities. 26 and 31 plans are to have them in there own cells.

[@sergarlantyrell7847]

@@davidhouseman4328 I was mostly thinking about the Type 45s but I've been trying to find official confirmation that that's the case for some time, but the best I've found are renders & the only one of those that depict individual cells is for the T31 & that only has 12 cells, not the 24 its meant to have.

[@chandrachurniyogi8394]

so you don't know the name of the new MBDA concept land attack cruise missile . . . that's why your saying future hypersonic missile solution and stealth & smart subsonic missile . . .

[@yamoto1833]

Yea

[@IMAN7THRYLOS]

If I am building a frigate, I want 8 anti ship missiles and I have to pick amongthe Sea Serpent, NSM and the Exocet MM40 Block IIIc, which one should I pick and why?

[@loyalist5736]

Not exocet as it can't attack land targets.

[@IMAN7THRYLOS]

@@loyalist5736 I thought that the latest versions of the Exocet can hit land targets. Regardless, I am building a frigate, not a destroyer. For land attack, the Vulcano is good enough. My focus is on an antiship missile. Which one of these above would be the best choice for ASuW and why?

[@loyalist5736]

@@IMAN7THRYLOS Thats new to me it hitting land targets, which one would I pick and why ...I'd pick none of the above I would go for LRASM and I'd pick this system because it can out reach other systems on the market and it is a very smart missile.

[@keithdouglas7154]

Is this open to the public??

[@possiblyadickhead6653]

I think yes on some days some or all areas are open to the public. I guess if you visit their web page you will know more tho.

[@mrpusser0348]

No

[@loyalist5736]

[@elnesti1890]

Why you don't speak more for that mbda hypersonic one cause none of the eu countries have one so pls more about that man

[@jccalventefotografo853]

I think they are still under development

[@turkeyisnotineurope8123]

France started their tests this year, but it doesn't look at this model. V-Max Missile built by ArianeGroup

[@kingdomkhmer9862]

Build back better lol

[@samburdge9948]

Sorry to hear about you all losing the Aussie sub.....but seriously it was an absolute horrible deal.....you should move away from the child raping pope who launders narco drug money and allow protestant descendants who moved out of France during the wars of religion to regain citizenship......after you do that hopefully USA and France become best friends
