Lockheed Martin Redirects In-Flight GMLRS Rocket to Destroy Moving Target in Army Test

28. Oct 2026

Description

(AWP Alliance News) - Lockheed Martin on Oct. 28, 2026, announced its first successful redirection of an in-flight GMLRS rocket during a test with the U.S. Army at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico. The rocket, launched from a HIMARS launcher, destroyed a moving target following an in-flight targeting update using the Strigo datalink and Remote Interceptor Guidance-360 system.

Internally funded integration connected existing systems without fundamentally changing the missile, demonstrating greater flexibility to adjust preprogrammed strikes. The datalink package is also applicable to Extended Range GMLRS and Precision Strike Missile, potentially extending networked targeting capabilities across other precision munitions.
