The Royal Danish Navy (RDN) has completed a first firing of a RIM-66 Standard Missile-2 (SM-2) area air defence missile from an Iver Huitfeldt-class frigate.
The First-of-Class (FOC) firing, undertaken on the evening of 4 May from HDMS Niels Juel on the Andøya test range off Norway, was designed to prove the integration of the SM-2 Block IIIA missile with ship systems and the Mk 41 vertical launcher system (VLS).
Commissioned in 2011, the RDN's three new Iver Huitfeldt-class frigates were conceived to provide an area anti-air warfare (AAW) capability. The ships marry a Thales-supplied AAW system – featuring the Active Phased Array Radar (APAR) X-band multifunction radar, Signal Multibeam Acquisition Radar for Tracking, L band (SMART-L) D-band volume search radar, and an associated fire-control cluster – with Terma's C-Flex combat management system. Four eight-cell strike-length Lockheed Martin Mk 41 VLS silos are fitted amidships.
