French Forces Expand MX-10 DAMOCLES Arsenal

The French Defence Procurement Agency has expanded its order of MX-10 DAMOCLES loitering munitions from KNDS and DELAIR. The additional order signifies trust in the munitions, initially contracted in 2024, with the first deliveries made in December 2025. This expansion will enhance production capabilities, supporting both the French Army and Navy.

These loitering munitions are crucial in modern warfare, offering high safety levels and quick deployment under five minutes. With a 10 km range and advanced electronic warfare resilience, they engage diverse targets, including armored vehicles. Developed rapidly under the MTO-CP program, MX-10 DAMOCLES is integral to France's defense strategy, with ongoing export initiatives.

As part of the MATARIS family, it addresses all land threats, representing KNDS and DELAIR’s significant role in advancing European defense capabilities.
