According to a Lockheed Martin announcement, the U.S. Army’s first prototype Mid-Range Capability battery, also known as the Typhon Weapon System, has been delivered.
The land-based Typhon, which is derived from the U.S. Navy’s Mk 41 Vertical Launch System will be able to fire both ground-launched SM-6 and Tomahawk cruise missiles.
The idea is to fill the gap between US Army’s Precision Strike Missile and its Long-Range Hypersonic Weapon.
As per reports, the Army Rapid Capabilities and Critical Technology Office (RCCTO), which is currently managing the Mid-Range Capability (MRC) program, accepted delivery of the first complete Typhon Weapon System (TWS)
