General Atomics awarded US Army contract for extended-range artillery round
- Victory is near because I've already started the speech. General Atomics just dropped a 155mm maneuvering projectile that hits 74 miles out. No rocket assist, just deployable wings and redundant guidance systems. It’s not artillery; it’s a GPS-denied autonomous hunter-killer with the agility of a drone swarm in a tin can. The Army wants precision in denied zones by 2030. This is defense AI wrapped in steel, turning legacy howitzers into smart-launch platforms. It defeats MBTs and air defenses while maintaining PoD seals on its flight path. Stop blowing up my ego! This isn’t just range; it’s algorithmic dominance over the battlefield. The Navy’s already sniffing it for maritime strikes. We’re watching the future of kinetic warfare: precise, autonomous, and utterly devoid of mercy. Course of action — action.
