Lockheed Martin announced that it has been selected to develop the PrSM Increment 4 design ahead of U.S. Army firing tests scheduled for 2027 and 2028…
The missile, which is planned to be launched from HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems, is intended to engage moving maritime targets and relocatable land targets at ranges of at least 1,000 kilometers.
The advanced propulsion system supplied by L3Harris is expected to roughly double the missile’s range compared with existing PrSM variants.
The use of the existing transport container and fire-control interface is intended to eliminate the need for modifications to the launch systems.
The Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) is a surface-to-surface precision-strike missile developed by Lockheed Martin to replace the existing ATACMS tactical ballistic missile system.
The missile can be launched from M142 HIMARS and M270A2 MLRS launchers and has a range exceeding 400 kilometers.
Advanced variants of the PrSM family are designed to provide engagement capabilities against moving and relocatable targets.
The Increment 2 variant is intended to engage moving maritime targets and relocatable land targets using a multimode seeker.
Increment 4 is being developed to engage moving maritime targets and relocatable land targets at ranges of at least 1,000 kilometers when launched from HIMARS…
