Modular Joint Strike Weapon

The Modular Joint Strike Weapon (Short: MJSW) is a weapons development program proceeded by the Government of Sannlibo, respictively the Sannlig Air Force and Sannsystems AB. The program as of now consists of four different weapon types, which also contain different subvariants, mostly in weight and size.

Flerbruksbombe 20 "Bifrøst"
The FbB 20 is the baseline variant of the MJSW-Program and uses a complete new frame which initially includes the guidance kit as well as the warhead. This frame is also build in a different shape, to minimalise the radar signature. Despite the new frame, much of the avionics, including the guidance kit, has been reused or adapted from the Flerbruksbombe 97 "Valkyrie" and Flerbruksbombe 07 "Dværgur". This also counts for the warhead, which, altough being adapted and modified to fit the frame, is the same as in the Flerbruksbombe 66.

The FbB 20 also comes in four different weight classes:

Bifrøst 125 (FbB 20/125): 125kg

Bifrøst 250 (FbB 20/250): 250kg

Bifrøst 500 (FbB 20/500): 500kg

Bifrøst 1000 (FbB 20/1000): 1000kg

Bifrøst MLRS
The Bifrøst MLRS is a variant of the Bifrøst 125, which is adapted to be used with the Missilkast 04 and Missilkast 83 Multiple Launch Rocket Systems. Both launch vehicles can acommendate two launch containers, of which each can be fitted with six Bifrøst MLRS Missiles. To be used as artillery missile it also features an additional rocket engine. With the equipped engine and the further retrofits, Bifrøst MLRS can reach a range of up to 150km.

Operators
Ringerike
 * His Majesty's Armed Forces (Ringerike): The ringeriker forces aquired an undisclosed amount of Birfrøst MLRS missiles.

Sannlibo
 * Sannlig Air Force: All four weight classes are in use with the Sannlig Air Force's JA-02 and JA-2000 Fighter Jets.
 * Sannlig Land Forces: The Bifrøst MLRS is the main missile of the Missilkast 04 and Missilkast 83 MLRS-Platforms of the Sannlig Land Forces.

Flerbruksmissil 20 "Yggdrasil"
The FbM 20 is basically a FbB 20 with an additional jet engine. It reuses the avionics and the warhead, as well as most parts of guidance kit and the frame, which have been adapted to acommendate the jet engine.

Unlike the FbB 20, the FbM 20 can also launched by helicopters like the AH-90 as well as the LUH-79 or -80. Depending on the helicopter type either the Yggdrasil 125 or the Yggdrasil 250 can be carried. The integration into the AH-90 is planned to be performed from 2023 onwards. By that the aerial launched variants of the Panservernmissil 85LR and Panservernmissil 90 will be replaced by MJSW as well as the Panservernmissil 20. The integrations on the LUH-79 and -80 helicopters have meanwhile been part of the procurement programms and were performed during the introduction process. While the integration on the LUH-79 was archieved with the Full Operational Capability in 2021, the LUH-80 could acommendate MJSW by archieving the Initial Operational Capability in 2022 already.

To fulfil specialised missions, further variants of this missile, like the "Elding" (Dedicated SEAD/DEAD Variant) and the "Njørd" (Dedicated Anti-Ship Variant) have been developed from this type.

Like the FbB 20, the FbM is produced in four different weight classes:

Yggdrasil 125 (FbM 20/125): 125kg

Yggdrasil 250 (FbM 20/250): 250kg

Yggdrasil 500 (FbM 20/500): 500kg

Yggdrasil 1000 (FbM 20/1000): 1000kg

Yggdrasil SL
The Yggdrasil SL is a specialised variant of the Yggdrasil 1000 and Yggdrasil 500 missiles, developed for the Sannlig Navy to be launched from the Vertical Launch Systems (VLS) of the sannlig Frigates as well as launch pods which can be fitted on special ramps on the decks of the sannlig frigates and corvettes.

Yggdrasil LR


The Yggdrasil LR (Long-Range) is another specialised variant of the Yggdrasil 1000 and Yggdrasil 500 missiles, developed as an air launched cruise missile and featuring and operational range of about 500km.

Yggdrasil SLR
The Yggdrasil SLR (Surface-Launch, Long-Range) is a surface-launched cruise missile which thereby incorporates the roles of the Yggdrasil VL and LR variants. It is as well a variant of the Yggdrasil 1000 and Yggdrasil 500 missiles.

Operators
Sannlibo
 * Sannlig Land Forces: The 125 and 250kg variants are deployed with the AH-90 as well as the LUH-79 and -80 helicopters.
 * Sannlig Air Force: All four weight-classes are in use with the Sannlig Air Force's JA-02 and JA-2000 Fighter Jets. The 125 and 250kg variants are as well deployed with the AH-90 as well as the LUH-79 and -80 helicopters.
 * Republic's Navy (Sannlibo): The 125 and 250 variants are used along the AH-90 and LUH-79 and -80 helicopters. Furtherly the navy uses the VL variants on their frigates and corvettes.

Radarvernmissil 20 "Elding"
To replace the RvM.90 anti-radar missile with a domestic model, the RvM 20 was developed from the Yggdrasil. The RvM 20 is either a 125kg or 250kg missile, with a new guidance kit, which is pre-programmed and contains a radar-seeking guidance.

Unlike its predecessor, the RvM 20 can also launched by helicopters like the AH-90 or the LUH-79 or -80. Depending on the helicopter type, either one of the two weight classes can be carried. The helicopter-launched version can also only launch the missile without the assistance of SEAD-Pods, with the AH-90 making an exception by being able to acommendate a podded SEAD solution. Additional assistance can be given from the E-17 Nattøye areal multi-role reconnaissance platform.

The weight classes are as following:

Elding 125 (RvM 20/125): 125kg

Elding 250 (FbM 20/250): 250kg

Operators
Sannlibo
 * Sannlig Land Forces: Both variants are used along the AH-90 and LUH-79 and -80 helicopters.
 * Sannlig Air Force: Both variants in use with the Sannlig Air Forces fighter jets as well as the AH-90 and LUH-79 and -80 helicopters.
 * Republic's Navy (Sannlibo): Both variants are used along the AH-90 and LUH-79 and -80 helicopters.

Skipsvernmissil 20 "Njørd"
The SvM 20 is also derived from the FbM 20 and features mostly similar avionics and guidance, which only have been adapted to acommendate the different conditions of water surfaces. Also the ability of sea-skimming has been added to the missile, while the warhead stayed the same. As of now the missile is availabe in 125kg and 250kg configurations.

The SvM 20 can also launched by helicopters like the AH-90 oder the LUH-79 or -80. Depending on the helicopter type, either one of the two weight classes can be carried. The helicopter-launched variant is primarly in use with the Republic's Navy, altough the Air Force uses the missiles as well. The Land Forces' helicopters could use the missiles, but this option has not considered yet.

The weight classes are as following:

Njørd 125 (SvM 20/125): 125kg

Njørd 250 (SvM 20/250): 250kg

Njørd 500 (SvM 20/500): 500kg

Njørd 1000 (SvM 20/1000): 1000kg

Njørd SL


The Njørd SL is a specialised variant of the Njørd 1000 and Njørd 500 missiles, developed for the Sannlig Navy to be launched from the Vertical Launch Systems (VLS) of the sannlig Frigates as well as launch pods which can be fitted on special ramps on the decks of the sannlig frigates and corvettes.

Operators
Sannlibo
 * Sannlig Air Force: All four variants in use with the Sannlig Air Force's fighter jets as well as the AH-90 and LUH-79 and -80 helicopters.
 * Republic's Navy (Sannlibo): The 125 and 250 variants are used along the AH-90 and LUH-79 and -80 helicopters. Furtherly the navy uses the SL variants on their frigates and corvettes.

Kryssmissil 21 "Gungnir"
The Gungnir is another specialised variant of the MJSW, developed as an air launched cruise missile and featuring and operational range of about 500km. The Gungnir is availabe in two different sizes, namely 1000kg and 500kg. It is based around the Yggdrasil 1000 and Yggdrasil 500, although it uses a larger engine and a different warhead.

Gungnir SL
The Gungnir SL (Surface-Launched) is a specialised surface-launched variant of the Gungnir, which can be launched from special ramps as well as vertical launch systems of frigates and other naval assets. It is as well availabe in the 1000kg and 500kg variants and features an operational range of about 500km, similarily to the baseline variant.

Gungnir M
The Gungnir M (Maritime) is another specialised variant of the Gungnir, developed for use against maritime targets such as warships. It comes as well in 1000kg and 500kg variations and also features a range of 500km.

Gungnir MSL


The Gungnir MSL (Maritime, Surface-launched) is a surface-launched variant of the Gungnir M, using the launchers of the Gungnir SL and also featuring an operational range of 500km. It comes in the 1000kg and 500kg variants as well.
