Anduril unveils Steelfin interceptor pitched as cheaper PAC-3 alternative

Anduril announced a new interceptor concept, Steelfin, marketed as a lower-cost option compared to PAC-3 missiles and described as reconfigurable for defeating both low-cost and high-end threats. If fielded, it could change air-defense cost-exchange dynamics by enabling more affordable intercepts against massed or inexpensive attackers.
