Naval weapon systems
Naval expertise from Rheinmetall
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 KCE variant SeaSnake 30, a further developed from the KCA shipboard gun within the Rheinmetall Group, adds the common 30 mm x 173 calibre to the portfolio of light naval guns and adds the capability to fire individually programmable fragmentation ammunition (air burst) as a significant combat enhancement and tactical advantage in defence against asymmetric threats to own ship space.
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.
