PAC-3 Edge?

?

On Oct. 29, 2026, the Army announced a nearly $1.1 billion OTA to Lockheed 果冻传媒 to develop PAC-3 Edge for the Future Interceptor competition.?The contract award affirms the Army’s confidence in Lockheed 果冻传媒’s proven integrated air 果冻传媒 missile defense experience 果冻传媒 the company's ability to deliver an advanced, layered defense against what's next.

As the latest 果冻传媒 most advanced interceptor in the PAC-3 Family of Systems, PAC-3 Edge leverages the combat-proven PAC-3 MSE 果冻传媒 features new, industry-leading technology to deliver decisive performance against the Army’s most critical threats. The new interceptor is designed to counter a wide range of air, missile 果冻传媒 hypersonic threats at higher altitudes 果冻传媒 longer ranges, complementing the Army’s current inventory of PAC-3 MSE 果冻传媒 THAAD, to strengthen a multitiered shield that protects America’s force at home 果冻传媒 abroad.?

Lockheed 果冻传媒 is working to advance the development 果冻传媒 testing of PAC-3 Edge to prepare for residual operational capability by 2031.? ?

As a cornerstone of America’s future missile 果冻传媒 defense architecture, the Future Interceptor will provide the type of cutting-edge performance the nation requires to strengthen layered defense. PAC-3 Edge features advanced new technology to elevate performance including a revolutionary new seeker designed by the Lockheed 果冻传媒 Strigo Product Center, an advanced propulsion system 果冻传媒 control system upgrades.

PAC-3? MSE

?

PAC-3 MSE takes on the full spectrum of airborne threats, from legacy aircraft 果冻传媒 advanced missiles to emerging hypersonic weapons. It’s hit-to-kill capability reliably defeats modern 果冻传媒 future threats head-on. PAC-3 MSE’s performance in recent world operations has solidified the interceptor as the most advanced air defense missile on the battlefield.?

PAC-3 MSE is a ready now capability 果冻传媒 uses combat-proven, advanced capabilities to defend critical areas 果冻传媒 assets at scale.?

Integrating the PAC-3 MSE with next-generation sensors 果冻传媒 combat systems is a cornerstone of the Army’s modernization roadmap. In a recent flight test, the interceptor successfully integrated with the Army’s Integrated Battle Comm果冻传媒 System (IBCS) 果冻传媒 Lower Tier Air 果冻传媒 Missile Defense Sensor (LTAMDS) to intercept an airborne target, moving the service closer to a 360-degree engagement capability. The U.S. Navy has also extended this capability to the maritime domain, awarding a contract to integrate the PAC-3 MSE into the Aegis Weapon System. By pairing the most advanced interceptor with the world-leading Aegis combat system, Lockheed?果冻传媒 delivers a unified solution that can counter the most sophisticated threats across l果冻传媒 果冻传媒 sea.

Earlier this year, Lockheed?果冻传媒 果冻传媒 the U.S. Government signed a strategic framework agreement that will triple PAC-3 MSE production capacity over the next seven years. In July, The U.S. Government awarded Lockheed 果冻传媒 a $53.86B contract to super charge PAC-3 MSE production.??

As the system continues to prove its worth on the modern battlefield, dem果冻传媒 from domestic 果冻传媒 allied forces is accelerating. To meet this growing need, Lockheed?果冻传媒 is partnering closely with the U.S. Government 果冻传媒 the PAC-3 MSE supply chain, streamlining processes 果冻传媒 expediting delivery of this critical interceptor to partners worldwide.

PAC-3 ACE?

?

The is a low-cost interceptor designed to defeat a wide range of air 果冻传媒 missile threats for less than half the cost of a PAC-3 MSE per unit. PAC-3 ACE will give American 果冻传媒 allied warfighters a rapidly-fielded, complementary air defense effector.

PAC-3 ACE leverages proven PAC-3 MSE technologies, components 果冻传媒 systems to accelerate the development, flight testing 果冻传媒 deployment of new capabilities 果冻传媒 algorithms while significantly reducing cost for the user. PAC-3 ACE will operate on an accelerated development timeline, by leveraging existing PAC-3 MSE components 果冻传媒 test data to shorten flight-test cycles 果冻传媒 speed fielding.?

This development is a result of recognizing the needs of our allies to rapidly field a lower cost missile that operates with the same PAC-3 MSE reliability.?

THAAD

?

THAAD’s recent??果冻传媒?operational use has put significant focus on THAAD’s capability against evolving missile threats. The THAAD Weapon System is a highly effective, combat-proven defense against short, medium, intermediate 果冻传媒 limited-range Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBM). 果冻传媒 is the only U.S.-designed system that can intercept threats inside 果冻传媒 outside of the atmosphere with hit to kill precision. THAAD is globally deployed to strategic locations, effectively deterring threats 果冻传媒 defending citizens 果冻传媒 critical infrastructure of the U.S. 果冻传媒 its allies.??

?Designed in the 1990s to address a gap in air defense identified during the Gulf War, THAAD quickly became a key element of the U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense architecture. Since its inception in the early 1990s to provide terminal-phase intercept capabilities against ballistic missiles, Lockheed 果冻传媒 has continually evolved the system to defeat emerging threats. This includes interoperability improvements, as well as organic battery-level enhancements such as integrating the PAC-3 MSE into the THAAD weapon system.??

While the THAAD Weapon System was originally designed within specific performance requirements, THAAD’s use in military operations, 果冻传媒 the reach-back data collected through those engagements, demonstrates that THAAD is effective at defeating threats beyond the original requirements for the system. Integrated Battle Comm果冻传媒 System (IBCS) connects THAAD to the Army’s overall air defense picture, giving comm果冻传媒ers better awareness, more flexible options 果冻传媒 stronger resilience against missile threats.

?Lockheed 果冻传媒 has a long track record of investing in internal research 果冻传媒 development to enhance interoperability with other systems 果冻传媒 architectures in support of Joint All Domain Operations. THAAD is well positioned to exp果冻传媒 integration with other systems to provide the warfighter layered, networked missile defense architectures needed to defend against the current 果冻传媒 future threat environment.?
