Surface Vessel Weapon System Mk-22 Guided Missile Launching System (GMLS) |
|
The Mark 22 guided missile launching
system (GMLS) is a variation of the
Mark 13 launcher which has only the inner 16 round
storage ring of the Mk-13 launcher. It was deployed on US-designed,
Baleares-class Spanish frigates. and US Navy Brooke class frigates.
Another major difference is that on the Mk-22 the magazine is
non-rotating. The launcher rotates over the desired missile and it
is then hoisted onto the rail. On the Mk-13 the magazine rotates
under the launcher. Used for: RIM-24 Tartar SAM RIM-66 Standard Missile SM-1MR SAM RGM-84 Harpoon SSM Used on: Brooke class FFG Baleares class Frigate (Spain) |
