Euronaval- 2008 (16)


From: 30 November 1999    To: 30 November 1999

Euronaval's 21st event will be held at the Paris-Le-Bourget exhibition center from 27 to 31 October 2008, under the joint auspices of the French Ministry of Defense, and the Secretariat General to the Sea. Euronaval, the leading international trade fair for naval defense has, since 2002, expanded its scope to the maritime sector and those industrial activities associated with State actions at sea.

TEWKSBURY, Mass., (July 14, 2008) -- Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN) has completed the first delivery of its open architecture Ship Self Defense System (SSDS) Mk 2 hardware configuration for installation onboard the U.S. Navy’s aircraft carrier USS Nimitz (CVN 68). Following warfare system integration and interoperability testing, Raytheon delivered the hardware two weeks ahead of schedule
The MK 29 SEASPARROW Guided Missile Launching System (GMLS) delivers effective protection against airborne and surface threats using the proven RIM-7 NATO SEASPARROW missile. As the latest upgrade to the MK 29 GMLS, the MK 29 MOD 4 allows the launcher to launch the RIM-162 Evolved SEASPARROW Missile (ESSM). The RIM-162 ESSM has proven itself against a broad spectrum of airborne and surface threats
Standard Missile-6 (SM-6) is an evolutionary U.S. Navy upgrade to the Standard Missile family that provides a transformational long-range, over-the-horizon integrated fire control capability to counter the ever-evolving threat well into the 21st century. SM-6 firepower contributes significantly to assuring joint access to swiftly defeat the enemy.
The Pavewayâ„¢ family of precision guided bombs has been the leader in precision guided weapons for more than a quarter century. Pavewayâ„¢ bombs have been put to the test in every major conflict and proved themselves, time and again, as the weapon of choice by the end-users.

SeaRAM Evolved Ship Defense

The SeaRAM Anti-ship Missile Defense System is an evolved MK15 Close-In Weapon System (CIWS) comprising key attributes of both the Phalanx CIWS and the Rolling Airframe Missile (RAM) Guided Weapon System. The MK15 Mod 31 SeaRAM extends the inner layer battlespace and enables the ship to effectively engage future high-performance, supersonic, and subsonic threats at greater distances. The system provides the highest level of ship self-protection with extended keep-out range capability and the ability to engage multiple targets. These important features strengthen the ship’s ability to sustain its mission in the most challenging littoral environments.
The MK 57 Vertical Launching System (VLS) is a versatile, open architecture solution that delivers significant warfighting and lifecycle advantages, making this launcher an ideal candidate for use in a wide variety of maritime and shorebased installations. The first shipboard deployment of the MK 57 VLS is planned for Zumwalt, the U.S. Navy’s next generation multimission destroyer
Tomahawk is the U.S. Navy’s surface- and submarinelaunched, precision strike long-range standoff weapon. At launch, a solid-propellant rocket motor accelerates the missile until the cruise engine takes over for the remainder of the flight. Radar detection is difficult because of the missile’s small size and low-altitude flight that ensures high probability of survival en route to highly defended targets. Tomahawk is launched vertically from surface ships and vertically and horizontally from submarines
