The US Army has taken a major step in acquiring a crucial missile system.
On March 28, 2025, the U.S. Army Contracting Command at Redstone Arsenal awarded Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with a ceiling value of $4.9 billion.
This major contract kicks off with a delivery order for 400 Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) Increment 1 systems, representing a significant advancement in strengthening the U.S. Army’s long-range precision strike capabilities.
Carolyn Orzechowski, vice president of Precision Fires Launchers and Missiles at Lockheed Martin stated,
“Lockheed Martin is committed to delivering this deterrent capability in support of the Army’s vision for a lethal and resilient force. Our team remains focused on advancing the production at speed and scale, ensuring the warfighter receives this critical capability to maintain peace through strength."
