French
Procurement Agency (DGA) on July 9, 2012 successfully completed the
first full sequence test (from launch to target) of a SCALP Naval,
French Navy's future naval cruise missile.
This was the third development test firing of the missile, conducted at the DGA site of Biscarrosse (South West France) where the "DGA missile test center" is located. This test is representative of a shot from a frigate. All objectives were met, including the validation of the terminal phase with autonomous guidance by infrared scene recognition, which provides highly accurate impacts. SCALP Naval cruise missiles will be deployed onboard multi-mission frigates (FREMM) in 2014 and Barracuda SSN submarines in 2017. |
