Initially, the RBS-15, like Ukraine's Neptune, was developed exclusively as an anti-ship missile. Today, however, Saab positions it as a universal weapon capable of being launched from virtually all available platforms

The Swedish defense company Saab has released a promotional video showcasing the RBS-15 missile, which, much like the Ukrainian Neptune, has evolved from a purely anti-ship weapon into a versatile system designed to engage a wide range of targets.

Although this capability is not new, as the RBS-15 Mk4 Gungnir was ordered by Sweden’s Ministry of Defence back in 2017 as an upgrade to a missile in service since 1984, the new video clearly demonstrates the types of adversaries the missile is intended to counter.

The video features two representative target sets engaged by a total of six RBS-15 missiles. Two are launched from a Visby-class corvette, two from a notional ground-based launcher, and two from a JAS 39 Gripen fighter.
