The '''Brochet-2''', known in [[Yonderian Defence Force|YDF]] inventory as '''AB-B-2''', is a [[Yonderre|Yonderian]]-built anti-ship missile whose versatile design allows it to be launched from ground vehicles, surface vessels, submarines, helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. It is the successor to the previous line of [[AMY]] {{wpl|Anti-ship missile|anti-ship missiles}}, [[Brochet]].

It is the successor to the previous line of [[AMY]] {{wpl|Anti-ship missile|anti-ship missiles}}, [[Brochet]]. The name ''Brochet'' comes from the [[Burgoignesc_lanugage|Burgoignesc]] name for the [[Vandarch pike]]. Designed between 2010-2014, the Brochet-2 is an extensive upgrade on its predecessor with an all-new solid-propellant booster and a turbojet sustainer motor which extends the range of the missile to more than 180 kilometres (110 mi; 97 nmi), far longer than the 70 kilometres (43 mi; 38 nmi) of the previous model. The YDF began taking deliveries of the Brochet-2 in 2014, initially as an upgrade to the ships of the [[Marine Yonderre]] but since 2018 the missiles have seen service with all branches of the YDF. | ||
In [[2016]], through the [[Burgundian Security Forces|Burgoignesc Defense Wide Joint Activities]] Levantine Union Special Technical Relationship Acquisition Agreement (LUSTRAA), the [[Navy of Burgundie]] purchased 50 Brochet-2 for trials and in [[2018]] accepted the missile and began distribution to the [[Burgundian Security Forces]]. The Brochet-2 has been an export success for [[AMY]], with the [[Imperial Armed Forces of Caphiria]] taking delivery of Brochet-2 missiles in 2018, the [[Cape Armed Forces]] placing an order for a significant number of Brochet-2 missiles in 2023 to replace its fleet of aging [[Harpun]] missiles and the [[Pelaxian Armed Forces]] signing a deal with [[AMY]] to take deliveries of the Brochet-2 from 2024, initially in the ground-to-ship role. The [[Cartadanian Armed Forces]] too began taking deliveries of Brochet-2 missiles in 2028. | In [[2016]], through the [[Burgundian Security Forces|Burgoignesc Defense Wide Joint Activities]] Levantine Union Special Technical Relationship Acquisition Agreement (LUSTRAA), the [[Navy of Burgundie]] purchased 50 Brochet-2 for trials and in [[2018]] accepted the missile and began distribution to the [[Burgundian Security Forces]].
