Raytheon reposted this
📰 #NEWS: Raytheon was awarded a $333 million contract from the US Navy to produce Standard Missile-6 (SM-6) Block IA missiles. SM-6 is the only weapon that can perform anti-air warfare, anti-surface warfare and ballistic missile defense or sea-based terminal missions, enabling the U.S. and its allies to cost-effectively increase the offensive might of surface forces. "SM-6 has a proven performance, and this contract is an important step for providing this urgently needed weapon to our armed forces," said Barbara Borgonovi, president of Naval Power at Raytheon. "Raytheon continues to work closely with our customers to ensure our military has an unfair advantage at sea and to keep our adversaries guessing."
