LGD: Raytheon Completes First Flight Test of New AMRAAM-ER Variant

Raytheon has successfully completed the first flight test of its new AMRAAM-ER missile, an extended-range variant designed to enhance air defense capabilities. This new missile offers increased range and improved accuracy, making it a formidable tool against advanced aerial threats, including drones and cruise missiles. However, as Raytheon looks to expand production for the AMRAAM-ER, it may encounter bottlenecks due to the ongoing global semiconductor shortages that are impacting defense manufacturing. This challenge underscores the need for strategic planning in supply chain management to meet the growing demand for advanced defense technologies. The introduction of the AMRAAM-ER missile is expected to significantly boost both U.S. and allied air defense systems, providing a stronger defense mechanism that enhances national and international security against evolving aerial threats.
