US Army solicits new Hellfire-like missile with EW/GPS-denial resilience

The US Army issued a sources-sought for a new short-range precision missile compatible with the M299 launcher across manned/unmanned air, ground, and waterborne platforms, explicitly requiring operation under jamming and GPS denial. While similar to Hellfire/JAGM in range and form factor, the emphasis on EW-resilient employment and very high-rate production (up to 8,000/year) signals a push for a scalable, modernized missile for contested environments and C-UAS/maritime targets.
