Raytheon Strengthens Australian Naval Defense with SeaRAM Integration

On May 11, 2026, RTX’s Raytheon has been selected to support Australia’s Sea3000 General Purpose Frigate program by providing SeaRAM ship self-defense systems for the Royal Australian Navy’s new MOGAMI-class frigates.

Awarded by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, the contract marks Australia’s first procurement of the SeaRAM system and supports the transition from the ANZAC-class fleet. Deliveries are expected in 2028.

By integrating the Phalanx Close-In Weapon System with the Rolling Airframe Missile, SeaRAM delivers autonomous terminal defense against cruise missiles and sophisticated airborne threats.
