Not just Kaliningrad? NATO eyes new Baltic front as France offers Sweden 1,400-km MdCN missile

France has offered Sweden its MdCN naval cruise missile as part of a $5.1 billion frigate package, potentially giving Stockholm a 1,400-kilometre deep-strike capability. The proposed deal would combine long-range land-attack missiles with Aster 30 air defence as Sweden expands its NATO role amid rising tensions with Russia. Sweden has also tested Taurus missiles from Gripen fighters, strengthening its long-range strike capabilities.
