Weapon Systems

Precision actuation and control for guided defence systems

We are a European center of excellence in missile actuation and control

Weapon systems today must meet increasingly demanding requirements in terms of accuracy, responsiveness and survivability. At Sener, we bring more than 25 years of experience delivering high-performance actuation and control systems for European missile programs. We specialize in aerodynamic control surfaces, stabilization systems and deployment mechanisms for guided weapons. All our developments are qualified to operate under extreme mechanical, thermal and vibrational conditions, ensuring mission success in the most complex operational theatres.

We are recognized across Europe as a key industrial partner in the design, development and production of AOCS and GNC systems for defence. Our solutions have been successfully integrated into programs like METEOR, RBS 70 NG, PAC 3 SME, IRIS-T and Taurus KEPD 350, where our electromechanical subsystems provide the backbone for guidance and aerodynamic stability

Why choose us

We offer end-to-end capabilities across the full system lifecycle — from initial design to serial production, qualification and in-service support. Our facilities are equipped to carry out in-house integration, testing and environmental validation. This means we can deliver weapon systems with faster time-to-market, greater reliability and full compliance with NATO and national defence standards.

We’ve delivered more than 1,000 subsystems for air, land and naval platforms

Our extensive manufacturing capacity allows us to produce and support high volumes of actuators and mechanisms. We work closely with final assembly lines, offering logistical and technical support through final customer qualification. This makes us a strategic supplier for large-scale defence programs that require scalable, certifiable and exportable technology.

How we work

We follow a modular and certifiable development model, with strong design and integration capabilities in electromechanics, navigation and embedded control. We are involved in key European strategic initiatives, such as the SMS consortium (Spanish Missile Systems), which seeks to consolidate sovereign capacity in precision-guided weaponry. Our role goes beyond the component: we act as technological partners with shared long-term goals.

We strengthen European sovereignty in precision-guided weapons

By participating in major international programs and national initiatives, we contribute to Europe’s strategic autonomy in defence. Our qualified products are ITAR-free, exportable and adaptable to different mission profiles — ensuring not only operational success, but also industrial independence.

Expertise

We provide advanced weapon systems technologies, including actuation systems, deployment mechanisms, optical pointing, and full series production. Our in-house capabilities ensure scalable manufacturing, quality assurance, and lifecycle support — delivering certified solutions for missile control and guided platform integration in high-performance defence environments.

Precision control system for guided weapons

We are a European leader in precision actuation and control systems for guided weapon systems, with over 25 years of experience. Our ITAR-free, scalable solutions support major missile programmes across air, land, and naval domains — ensuring operational reliability, fast integration, and long-term lifecycle support.
