Multiple rocket launcher

defensa seguridad industria militar europeo. EDF Development Actions Scope: Due to the changing overall geopolitical context, Member States, EDF associated countries and their land forces need to improve their indirect fire and rocket artillery capabilities in particular, as many have been relying on non-European systems that are already approaching the end of their operational life. Against this background, this topic aims to develop multiple rocket launcher solutions capable of countering the latest threats by increasing the range and precision of indirect fire, maximising interoperability and optimising the cost-effectiveness of operations in a high-intensity and GNSS-contested battle scenario. This topic contributes to the STEP objectives as defined in the STEP Regulation in the target investment area of defence technologies. Targeted types of activities: Studies and design, not excluding upstream and downstream activities eligible for development actions. Indicative budget: EUR 25 000 000 for this topic under the EDF-2026-DA call. Indicative number of proposals to be funded: Several proposals may be funded for this topic.
