USAF plans ARRW Increment 2 with terminal seeker and datalink for moving targets

The post describes a planned new ARRW hypersonic boost-glide variant (“Increment 2”) adding a terminal seeker and datalink, enabling engagement of moving targets, including ships at sea. This is a notable capability expansion from the current ARRW concept focused on fixed land targets and implies development of long-range maritime kill-chain networking under hypersonic flight conditions.
