RBS 15 Mk3 is a multi purpose surface-to-surface missile, designed to operate in all naval warfare scenarios. It has an inherent littoral capability and is equipped with a highly advanced active radar target seeker with all-weather capability and built-in electronic warfare functionality. In combination with the very flexible trajectory, incorporating both unlimited overland flight capability, multiple way-points and sea skimming flight altitude, RBS15 Mk3 has excellent defence penetration capabilities. The target catalogue comprises both ships and land targets. RBS15 Mk3 features a large warhead capable of taking out all intended targets.
The breakthrough order for the missile system came in September 2005 when the German Navy placed its order for the RBS 15 Mk3 to arm its new K130-class corvettes.
