Lockheed Martin has delivered the 1,000th electronic warfare payload for the Nulka decoy programme, an Australia-US joint programme.

Nulka is a rocket-propelled active missile decoy specifically designed to lure incoming missiles away from the ships for stand-alone ship protection.

As an integral part of the ship’s missile defence system, Nulka provides effective all-weather protection for naval vessels against anti-ship missiles.

Currently, Nulka is fielded on every Australian surface combatant as well as on several classes of US and Canadian navy warships.
