Toutatis Loitering Munitions
Loitering munitions capable of operating in multiple environments, industrialised with Renault Group for high-intensity operations.
Our loitering munitions equipped with interchangeable warheads, designed by Thales, are manufactured by Renault Group. This enables rapid scaling-up, thanks to proven serial industrial processes mastered in France, ensuring responsiveness and sovereignty for the armed forces.
Strategic Advantages of TOUTATIS
-
Multi-mission versatility
The TOUTATIS munition integrates easily with various platforms (dismounted soldier, vehicle, drone, helicopter, ship), providing an effective response for all types of operational environments and missions.
-
Resistant to jamming
Designed to operate effectively even in highly contested environments (jamming, absence of GNSS), TOUTATIS ensures mission continuity and operational success without relying on external signals.
-
100% sovereign production
Produced in France as part of a partnership with Renault Group, TOUTATIS offers optimal responsiveness, enhanced supply security, and national industrial control throughout the entire value chain.
TOUTATIS: Multi-Platform Tactical Superiority, Enhanced Operator Safety
The TOUTATIS short-range multi-environment loitering munition (LM) can be deployed by an infantryman, launched from a vehicle, or from an air or naval carrier. Equipped with a latest-generation 1 kg warhead, interchangeable depending on the desired military effect, TOUTATIS is capable of neutralising targets such as infantry fighting vehicles, while keeping the user in the decision loop until the end of the mission. Its large-scale production, made possible through a partnership with Renault Group, a historic automotive giant and a pioneer in industrialisation processes, ensures sovereignty and responsiveness for armed forces.
Designed for high-intensity operations, TOUTATIS remains effective even under jamming conditions and without GNSS signals. It offers a range of over 30 km and 30 minutes of endurance. Equipped with an interchangeable warhead, it can be launched from a tube, drone, helicopter, or naval platform. Its mass production, secured through partnership with Renault Group, strengthens French sovereignty.
