I think that's what the 30mm cannon are for.

Aster missiles and the 30 mm canon should be able to handle the Exocet.

Oh it could shoot those down with Standards. But this is comparable to a US Kidd and has only half the firepower of a US Arleigh Burke. Which we have 50 of, incidentally.

In the first test an Aster 15 successfully intercepted a sea-skimming target in a very high electronic countermeasures environment.
