The RBS15 Mk3 surface-to surface missile system has been designed to operate in a diverse range of scenarios, from anti-ship engagement in blue to littoral waters, as well as land attack missions.

It is jointly produced and marketed by Saab in Sweden and Diehl BGT Defence in Germany, and allows for true fire-and-forget operability in all weather conditions.

Mesko management board member and production director Dariusz Szlafka said: “This agreement guarantees that both companies are committed to joining together their capabilities to ensure fruitful and effective collaboration within the framework of the Polish Naval Programs, i.e. Czapla, Miecznik, and Slazak or other PNP programmes.

“This action will help fully meet the needs and expectations of the Polish Government and ultimately contribute to the country’s security.”
