US Army awards Dynetics-Raytheon team IFPC Increment 2 development contract

摘要

The US Army has officially announced that Dynetics' Enduring Shield launcher, paired with Raytheon's ground-launched AIM-9X Sidewinder missile, has won its Indirect Fire Protection Capability Increment 2 (IFPC Inc 2) programme and that the duo will receive an initial USD237 million to continue development. This Dynetics-Raytheon offering, based around a once-abandoned launcher, secured the deal over Rafael Advanced Defense Systems' combat-proven Iron Dome.
