KEY INTELLIGENCE TAKEAWAYS & SUMMARY
- The Rampart modular multi-role launcher system was tested for the first time in real sea conditions aboard a Mistral-class LHD.
- The WILDFIRE 26.2 exercise validated the integrated defense concepts of modern naval assets against asymmetric UAV and surface drone threats.
- The system architecture supports a wide range of effectors, including unguided rockets, VSHORAD missiles (including Piorun), and short-range guided munitions.
- Naval Group is preparing to expand Rampart integration tests with international partners such as the UAE and Belgium in the upcoming period.
Rampart Modular Launcher System and Technical Capacity
Naval Flexibility Against Asymmetric Threats
Conclusion and Future Perspective
The successful data obtained during the WILDFIRE 26.2 exercise has paved the way for a new global test schedule for the Rampart system. Following this maiden sea trial, Naval Group plans to conduct 70 mm rocket tests with Edge Group's Sky Knight missile system in the UAE and in cooperation with Thales Belgium in Belgium. In the long term, such modular CIWS solutions, which have the potential to act as a flexible shield for naval forces against asymmetric swarm attacks, will become an indispensable element of future naval warfare concepts.
