The US Army has placed a $66.2 million order with Raytheon Technologies for an undisclosed number of M982 Excalibur GPS-guided heavy artillery projectiles.
A next-generation artillery precision munition, the Excalibur is a 155-millimeter extended-range shell that provides superior fire support.
It uses a jam-resistant internal GPS receiver to update the navigation system and provide precision in-flight guidance to strike targets within two meters, regardless of range.
The weapon system features first-round effects-on-target capabilities for increased lethality while minimizing collateral damage and can be deployed in all weather conditions.
