MBDA at DIMDEX 2022: Qatar's Coastal Defense System, Exocet and Marte ER

Interviews with Captain (Sea) Al Nabit of the Qatar Emiri Naval Forces and Andrea Comite of MBDA regarding the Coastal Defense System protecting Qatar's coastline and territorial waters with the Exocet and Marte anti-ship missiles.
Mr Comite also gives us the latest on the Marte ER including its integration aboard NH90 helicopters.
=====================
MBDA signed in 2016 a contract for the supply of a coastal defense system for the Qatari Emiri Naval Forces (QENF).
This innovative coastal missile system deploys two different munitions, Exocet MM40 Block 3 and Marte ER (the Extended Range version of the Marte missile), and it will be able to work in autonomous mode with its own radar, or alternatively by data-linking to a higher level within a wider coastal surveillance network. The supply of these coastal missile systems will allow the QENF to prevent hostile ships from reaching and threatening their territorial waters.

The fact that this two missiles from the 60's (even if upgraded) are still in widespread service is so impressive and a testament to the genius of their designers.

Exocet is finally reach the end of it's technology, meanwhile Marte still can be upgraded more also, don't forget Gabriel

[@arnaudsurribas2963]

The exocet from the 60's is completly different from the nowadays missile system. The name endured because of its reputation, and being combat proven. Had this system not been famous for its ahcievments, it may have changed of name and be presented as a new product. Basic marketing ;)

Is so different is like said I have the same mop only change 5 broom sticks and 7 heads

[@Nainara32]

Why two kinds of missiles from the same manufacturer? Different mission profile for each one?

[@NavalNews]

Different range, meaning multi-layer defense
