| With the anti-ship missile RBS15 Mk3, Diehl Defence delivers the main weapon for the German Navy's new K130 corvette and other customers. A special feature of the German-Swedish missile is its ability to precisely engage land targets as well. The RBS15 Mk3 version jointly developed by Diehl BGT Defence and Saab Dynamics is based on RBS15 Mk2 which has proved its worth with the Swedish and other Navies. |

| HPEM (High-Power-Electro-Magnetics) effectors offer the possibility of directing impulses against different electronic systems with the objective of causing malfunction. Products on the basis of HPEM technology provide the opportunity to protect Armed Forces against Improvised Explosive Devices (IED), to stop getaway vehicles in moving traffic without employing physical force and permanently damaging vehicle electronics and to prevent unauthorized access to critical security areas. HPEM effectors pose no health hazard to users and uninvolved individuals. |
