Note: The '''Antenne Linéaire Remorquée à technologie Optique''' (ALRO) under development by Thales for the [[SNLE 3G]] is expected to replace the ETBF DSUV 62C towed array sonar on the Barracuda-class submarines. The Exocet SM39 submarine-launched anti-ship missile was initially expected to be replaced via the [[Future Cruise/Anti-Ship Weapon|FMAN/FMC]] led by [[MBDA]]. However, the programme is no longer expected to produce any missile capable of being [[submarine-launched cruise missile|launched from submarines]] as their dimensions will not be compatible with torpedo tubes. MBDA is therefore pitching its Exocet SM40 under development as a successor to the SM39 post-2030.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Lamigeon |first=Vincent |date=13 November 2024 |title=FMAN-FMC : menace sur les futurs missiles de MBDA ? |url=https://www.challenges.fr/entreprise/defense/fman-fmc-menace-sur-les-futurs-missiles-de-mbda_911003 |access-date=13 November 2024 |website=Challenges |language=FR}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Tanguy |first=Jean-Marc |date=5 November 2024 |title=Missiles : MBDA détaille les avancées du programme franco-britannique FMAN-FMC |url=https://air-cosmos.com/article/missiles-mbda-detaille-les-avancees-du-programme-franco-britannique-fman-fmc-69575 |access-date=6 November 2024 |website=Air & Cosmos |language=FR}}</ref>
