U.S. Army Completes Successful PrSM Test

Lockheed Martin and the U.S. Army have successfully tested the Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) at White Sands Missile Range, marking a key milestone in its production qualification. The test involved firing two missiles in succession from a HIMARS launcher, demonstrating their capability to accurately engage targets up to 400 kilometers away. This dual-shot approach aligns with Army doctrine to enhance operational effectiveness against threats. The PrSM, designed to replace the Army Tactical Missile System, showcases advanced features that allow it to be used across various platforms, enhancing its versatility in modern warfare. Additionally, India's successful test of a long-range hypersonic missile signifies its entry into the elite club of nations with such technology, bolstering its defense capabilities and strategic preparedness in the Indo-Pacific region. These developments highlight the growing importance of advanced missile systems amid escalating geopolitical tensions.
