Officials from the United States Army’s Program Executive Office Missiles and Space (PEO MS) and Army Contracting Command (ACC)– Redstone Arsenal executed an Undefinitized contract award for Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System (GMLRS) rocket production. The contract awarded to Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control is worth $4.1 billion and will procure GMLRS, Extended-Range (ER) GMLRS missiles, and associated hardware.
The interesting bit is the mention of ER-GMLRS. It’s evident that the ER variant is now getting into serious serial production.
The systems are expected to be produced at the company’s Precision Fires Center of Excellence in Camden, Arkansas.
In this video, Defense Updates analyzes how new ER-GMLRS would elevate the lethality of HIMARS & M270 MLRS ?
