LOCKHEED MARTIN TO MANUFACTURE DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL HIMARS

The U.S. Army has awarded Lockheed Martin a production contract to manufacture additional HIMARS launchers and associated equipment.

LOCKHEED MARTIN TO MANUFACTURE DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL HIMARS

Lockheed Martin builds HIMARS at its Precision Fires Center of Excellence in Camden, Arkansas. This procurement will expand the U.S. Army’s fleet of launchers and fulfill orders from international partners bringing additional precision fires capability to Lockheed Martin's customers.

The award follows contracts last year to ramp production capacity and expedite HIMARS production.

HIMARS provides unmatched long-range mobile firepower in support of Joint All-Domain Operations. A lightweight mobile launcher transportable by C-130 and larger aircraft for rapid deployment, HIMARS fires GMLRS rockets, ATACMS missiles, the next-generation Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) and Extended-Range GMLRS rockets. HIMARS consists of a loader launcher module and fire control system mounted on a five-ton truck chassis. A specialized armoured cab provides additional protection to crew members that operate the system.
