TESEO MK2/E anti-ship missile production contract
Production contract from Italy's National Directorate of Naval Armaments for MBDA's next-gen TESEO MK2/E anti-ship missiles.
This series-production contract follows a 2021 development/integration/qualification contract and an October 2024 first successful test firing. TESEO MK2/E uses an AESA seeker for enhanced range and precision against long-range naval and land targets, in-flight control via satellite data link, and a secondary deep-strike capability. It will equip FREMM EVO frigates, the new MPCS/PPA multi-purpose combat ships, and future DDX destroyers, alongside the earlier MK2/A already in service on FREMM and Horizon-class ships.
