Story by Brandon J. Weichert • 8h •
Summary and Key Points: Lockheed Martin's Mako hypersonic missile is a promising development in America's effort to catch up in the global hypersonic weapons race. Capable of speeds over Mach 5, the Mako can be deployed from various U.S. aircraft, including the F-35, F-22, and F/A-18.
-With advanced in-flight maneuverability and multi-mission capability, it can target both land and sea assets, making it a key tool for countering China's anti-access/area-denial (A2/AD) strategies.
-Utilizing digital engineering and additive manufacturing, Lockheed aims to mass-produce the Mako efficiently, offering a critical boost to U.S. military power projection in the Indo-Pacific.
