Warship Eliminated: A Navy F/A-18F Fired a ‘Stealth Munition’
Summary and Key Points: The AGM-158C Long-Range Anti-Ship Missile (LRASM), recently demonstrated at RIMPAC 24, is a stealthy, long-range missile designed to counter advanced maritime threats.
-Developed to replace aging Harpoon missiles, LRASM features advanced stealth, precision targeting, and autonomy, making it highly effective against modern anti-access threats like China's expanding naval power. With a range of 200 nautical miles, it can operate in electronically contested environments, enhancing U.S. maritime superiority.
-Its integration onto platforms like the F/A-18 and B-1 Lancer underscores America's commitment to Indo-Pacific security, providing a critical edge against Chinese naval ambitions. Mass production, however, remains key to sustaining this advantage.
