The Army is getting serious about a future interceptor for its next-generation Integrated Air-and-Missile Defense System that is more capable of defeating complex threats like hypersonic weapons, according to a review of FY23 budget documents.
The U.S. Army has awarded Northrop Grumman a contract to produce its next-generation battle command system that will tie critical sensors and shooters together on the battlefield.
During a major test of the Army's Integrated Battle Command System, a Patriot Advanced Capability-3 Missile Segment Enhancement missile misfired when attempting to intercept a tactical ballistic missile target.
