On December 17, the Brazilian Navy carried out the first launch of the MANSUP anti-ship missile from the ASTROS ground installation, which is in service with the Marine Corps. The corresponding frames are shown online.

These weapons give us autonomy and independence, strengthening the country's technological self-sufficiency, and reduce the need for imported weapons, strengthening our defense industrial base.

- said the developer, SIATT company.

The fleet command indicated that the missile has a range of up to 70 km and high accuracy. The flight speed reaches 300 m/s (1000 km/h). Targeting is carried out using an ANN and an on-board radar at the final stage. It is equipped with a solid-fuel engine that allows for low-altitude flight, similar to other anti-ship missiles such as Exocet or Harpoon.

The anti-ship missile system is designed to be launched from marine carriers and land-based mobile platforms such as CFN launchers. Initially, MANSUP was developed to enhance the anti-ship capabilities of promising Tamandare-class frigates and was first tested from the Barroso corvette in 2018.

The UAE has already shown interest in the new anti-ship missile system, expressing in November a desire to equip RABDAN FA-400 patrol ships with them.
