The K130 Braunschweig class (sometimes Korvette 130) is Germany's newest class of
ocean-going corvettes. They supplement the Gepard-class fast attack craft that are currently
in service.
They feature reduced radar and infra-red signature ("stealth" beyond the Sachsen-class
frigates) and will be equipped with two helicopter UAVs for remote sensing. Recently,
the German Navy ordered a first batch of 6 Camcopter S-100 UAVs for the use on the
Braunschweig-class corvettes. Also the German Army plans to procure the Camcopter S-100
for land-based missions. The hangar is too small for standard helicopters, but the pad is large
enough for Sea Kings, Lynx or NH-90s, the helicopters of the German Navy.
Originally the K130 class was supposed to be armed with the naval version of the Polyphem
missile, an optical fiber-guided missile with a range of 60 kilometres (37 mi), which at the
time was under development. The Polyphem program was canceled in 2003 and instead
the designers chose to equip the class with the RBS-15. While the RBS-15 has a much
greater range (250 kilometres (160 mi)), the current version mounted on the ships, Mk3,
lacks the ECM-resistant video feedback of the Polyphem. The German Navy has ordered
the RBS-15 Mk4 in advance, which will be a future development of the Mk3 with increased
range (400 kilometres (250 mi)) and a dual seeker for increased resistance to electronic
countermeasures.
