The Martlet missile, a state-of-the-art lightweight multirole missile, has now given the Royal Navy's Wildcat helicopters a proven air-to-air capability. This trial demonstrates the effectiveness of the Martlet missile in intercepting high-speed aerial targets, significantly enhancing the Royal Navy's operational capabilities.
