EuroTorp's role is to develop, manufacture and market the MU90 and associated torpedo launching systems. As the designated contractor for lightweight torpedoes, it was initially also responsible for Italy's remaining A244-S torpedoes,[2][4] which are now no longer used by France and Italy. EuroTorp is also responsible for logistical support, achieving compliance with operational specifications, integration on launching platforms, and the development of new systems such as the "Hard Kill" and submarine-launched versions of the MU90.
