Naval weapon systems
Naval expertise from Rheinmetall
Oerlikon Millennium gun®
The weapon system is ideally suited for engaging multiple, fast-moving surface targets in an asymmetric environment (swarm attacks). It exceeds the U.S. Navy's defined holding distance requirements for defence against multi-axis approaching attack boats.
In its traditional air defence role, the Millennium gun covers a wide range of air targets, from small, low radar cross-section targets such as anti-ship guided missiles to fighter jets and helicopters.
SeaSnake 30
The remote-controlled SeaSnake 30 weapon station is the first choice when it comes to fast, precise and effective response to asymmetric threats within near and nearest perimeter of naval surface vessels. As one of the most modern carbon-based weapon stations available on the market, with an aviation-derived, high-performance KCE-30 revolver cannon, it enables both – rapid response capability through high pointing dynamics and high assertiveness in combat through enormous firepower and intelligent assistance systems. The truly modular system approach allows for individual system combinations for a customized configuration even in harsh environmental conditions. The SeaSnake 30 weapon station is ideally suited for the main armament of smaller patrol boats and supply vessels or as a secondary caliber gun for corvettes or frigates.
SeaSnake 27
The proven BK 27 on-board gun from the Eurofighter/"Typhoon" or Saab JAS 39 "Gripen" was navalised and integrated into the newly designed light naval gun (MLG-27 4.0) / SeaSnake 27 due to its precision and effectiveness.
The achieved balance between calibre size, firing cadence and effect of the combat ammunition make the BK 27 M a reliable effector and "all-rounder" for naval applications in the defence of own surface units.

SeaSnake 20
Oerlikon Searanger 20 – remote controlled gun station
The Oerlikon Searanger® 20 is the ideal primary armament for small Coast Guard and maritime police boats for anti-piracy and anti-smuggling operations. It can also be used as a secondary armament on larger vessels for important tasks in close-range defence.
Natter 12.7
The Natter 12.7 weapon station in maritime application serves a wide range of missions from self-securing larger vessels as secondary armament to the main armament of smaller surface units such as command boats or RHIBs.
The integrated FlexEye sensor gives the system its all-weather deployability and supports even highly agile and dynamic
Natter 7.62
Like the Natter 12.7 mm, the lighter version also features the all-weather FlexEye transmitter system.
SeaVision – sensor system platform
The sensor platform can be positioned separately from the weapon, while retaining full functionality, and thus has clear advantages in both individual flexible application and ship integration.
