The '''RBS 15''' (Robotsystem 15) is a long-range [[fire-and-forget]] [[surface-to-surface missile|surface-to-surface]] and [[air-to-surface missile|air-to-surface]] [[anti-ship missile]]. The later version '''Mk. IV''' has the ability to attack land targets as well. The missile was developed by the Swedish company [[Saab Bofors Dynamics]].

==History==
The [[Swedish Navy]] earlier made the [[Saab Rb 08|RB 08]] anti-ship missiles with the [[Halland-class destroyer]]s in the early 1960s.  The main effect of Sweden's defence resolution of 1958 for the Swedish navy was restructuring into a lighter force consisting of [[fast attack craft]] (FAC) vessels and a halt to destroyer procurement.  This posed a problem as the existing RB 08 missile required launch rails and a missile magazine in the destroyers, taking up space that was not available in smaller ships. Adding to the problems, each missile had to be individually prepared for launch and only two missiles could be on the launch rails at the same time. In comparison, the [[P-15 Termit]] (NATO codename Styx) missile used by the Soviet Union from the late 1950s (which was the expected adversary of RBS 15) stored the missiles in individual containers on deck with the missiles immediately available for launch.  Tests were carried out on Plejad class FACs with a single bow-mounted RB 08 in the late 1960s, but they came to nothing.

Saab's next attempt at anti-ship missiles to equip the Norrköping class FACs of the Swedish navy was in 1978 under the project name "RB 04 Turbo", a development of the air force [[RB 04]]E missile with a turbofan engine, changed wing configuration and start rockets to take off from land.  The initial proposal was rejected as inferior to the [[Harpoon missile]].  The project, under the leadership of Hans Ahlinder, then worked out a proposal for a missile with greater capabilities than the Harpoon, and superior performance to the American missile.  To indicate that it was a new weapon the project name was changed from "RB 04 Turbo" to "RBS 15".<ref>{{Citation | url = http://www.robotmuseum.se/Mappar/Robothistorik/AMF_rb_04.htm | publisher = Arboga Missile Museum | title = How the RB 04 Turbo became RBS-15 | language = sv | url-status = dead | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20100814170148/http://www.robotmuseum.se/Mappar/Robothistorik/AMF_rb_04.htm | archive-date = 14 August 2010 }}.</ref>
[[File:Robot 04 Lansen.jpg|thumb|left|RB 04 missile]]

The first weapon contract was signed in 1979; at the last minute the Swedish government did not buy the Harpoon anti-ship missile, opting for an indigenous design. The first missiles were delivered to the Navy in June 1984, and the ship version '''RBS 15 Mk. I''' was introduced.

[[File:Robotbåt.jpeg|thumb|left|''RBS 15 Mk 1'' on Swedish missile boat {{HSwMS|Västervik}}]]

The [[Swedish Navy]] ordered the missile in 1984 to develop a coastal defense version of the RBS 15F. The missile was taken into Swedish Navy service as the 'Rb 15 by the Swedish Navy and became operational in 1985. The [[Swedish Air Force]] received their missiles a couple of years later. The original '''RBS 15 Mk. I''' was produced from 1985 to 1990.

Work on a further developed version, the '''RBS 15 Mk. II''', began in the early 1980s, but it took until 1994 to get a development contract for the upgraded anti-ship missile. The Mk. II has the same range (70+ km), but the mid-course and terminal guidance system, as well as the radar and IR signature were upgraded.  The Mk. II has been produced since 1998.

Development of the '''RBS 15 Mk. III''' began in the mid-1990s. It is produced by Saab in co-operation with [[Diehl Defence]] of Germany.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.defense-aerospace.com/articles-view/release/3/3799/diehl,-saab-team-on-anti_ship-missiles-(dec.-6).html |title=Alliance Between German Diehl CorporationAnd Swedish SAAB Group on Anti-Ship Missiles |author=Diehl Group |date=5 December 2000 |website=defense-aerospace.com |publisher=Briganti et Associés |access-date=16 March 2017 }}</ref> Emphasis was put on increased range (due to larger fuel capacity and new fuel the range has been increased to some 200&nbsp;km), improved accuracy (integrated GPS) and selectable priority targeting, which improved the weapon system's flexibility. The Mk. III was selected for the [[German Navy]]'s {{sclass|Braunschweig|corvette}}s. Finnish truck maker [[Sisu Auto|Sisu]] produces missile launch trucks for RBS 15. The Mk. III has been in production since 2004.

In March 2017 Saab received an order for a new generation anti-ship missile to replace the RBS 15, valued at 3.2 billion SEK.<ref name=c2229060/> The following year, SAAB unveiled the '''RBS 15 Mk. IV [[Gungnir]]''', again produced with Diehl. Unlike Mk. III, the Mk. IV Gungnir can be fired from a [[truck]], making it capable of launching from air, sea, or land.<ref>{{cite web |title=The RBS15 family |url=https://www.saab.com/products/the-rbs15-family |website=SAAB |access-date=27 April 2021}}</ref> Gungnir missiles have been ordered for the Swedish Navy, with the first weapons scheduled for delivery in the mid-2020s.<ref>{{cite web |title=Saab Unveils RBS15 Gungnir Anti-ship Missile at Farnborough Air Show |url=https://www.defenseworld.net/news/22959/Saab_Unveils_RBS15_Gungnir_Anti_ship_Missile_at_Farnborough_Air_Show |website=Defence World |access-date=27 April 2021 |date=17 July 2018}}</ref>

===Development phase===
The missile was developed from the [[RB 04]] missile that was used by the Swedish air force. The front of the missile was retained, including the warhead, but the rear received new wings and a turbofan engine replaced the rocket previously used. The RBS 15 underwent trials on the missile FAC {{HSwMS|Piteå}} from 1983 and became operational with the Swedish Navy in 1985. The {{sclass|Västergötland|submarine}}s were to have four vertical missile launch tubes for RBS 15 missiles in an extended hull, canceled due to budget constraints and to not fitting the way Swedish submarines operated.

Primary weapon of the [[Croatian Navy]] for its five guided missile boats and three coastal systems mounted on [[Tatra (company)|Tatra]] trucks. In total, 48 Mk.I units are in service. Plans for upgrading 21 missiles to a standard incorporating elements from both the Mk.II and the Mk.III versions was cancelled in 2009 due to budget restraints but light software upgrades were continuously executed and have improved the missiles' navigation, precision and electronic defence. The latest of this upgrades was conducted in 2010 as part of usual service works. Unexpectedly though, in August 2014 the Croatian government decided to send at least 20 Croatian RBS 15 missiles through an overhaul program so as to keep them operational and current for another 10 years. The missiles are to receive upgrades to increase their range to about 90–100&nbsp;km as well as to improve their guidance, precision and survivability against jamming. The missiles were successfully launched and destroyed their targets in live fire naval exercises in 2015, 2016 and 2018.<ref>{{Cite web |title=RBS15 Successfully Test-Fired by the Croatian Navy |url=https://soff.se/en/medlemsnyhet/rbs15-successfully-test-fired-by-the-croatian-navy-2/ |access-date=2022-09-19 |website=SOFF}}</ref>

The first ship is under construction and will be commissioned in 2025. Bulgaria may also be arming its Coastal Artillery with RBS 15 Mk.III, but it has competition from the [[Naval Strike Missile]] and the [[Exocet]]<ref>{{Cite web |title=Björn Bengtsson on LinkedIn: #allweathercapability #thepowertoactthepowertowin |url=https://hr.linkedin.com/posts/bj%C3%B6rn-bengtsson-8629bb1_allweathercapability-thepowertoactthepowertowin-activity-6987131035540951040-B27e |access-date=2022-11-27 |website=hr.linkedin.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Спешно купуваме ракети за брегова артилерия заради руската опасност в Черно море (Обзор) |url=https://www.24chasa.bg/bulgaria/article/15428049 |access-date=2023-09-08 |website=24chasa.bg}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Milev |first=Momchil |date=7 June 2024 |title=Затишие пред "буря" в българските въоръжени сили |url=https://www.capital.bg/politika_i_ikonomika/voinata-v-ukraina/2024/06/07/4629793_zatishie_pred_buria_v_bulgarskite_vuorujeni_sili/ |website=capital,bg}}</ref>

Some RBS 15s were delivered during the late 1980s for the new [[SFR Yugoslav Navy|Yugoslavian Navy]] FACs to replace existing Russian-built missiles, but the project was never finalized due to the [[Croatian War of Independence]]. Missiles were captured by the [[Croatian Navy]].
