The budget committee of the Bundestag (the German parliament) has approved the procurement of 600 RAM Block 2B missiles for the German Navy fleet.
All German Navy surface combatants are fitted with the RAM guided missile weapon system, K130 corvettes (Batch 1 and Batch 2), F123, F124, F125 frigates as well as the future F126 vessels displacing 10,400 tonnes.
The 600 RAM missiles are set to be delivered between 2024 and 2029.
According to Raytheon, the Block 2 variant, the latest evolution in the development of the RAM missile, has a larger rocket motor, advanced control section and an enhanced RF receiver capable of detecting the quietest of threat emitters. The improvements make the missile two and a half times more maneuverable, with one and a half times the effective intercept range. This provides the Block 2 variant with the capability to defeat highly stressing threats, increasing the survivability of the defended ship.
