US Army is seeking a counter-drone missile under $150K that must be compatible with Raytheon’s Coyote launcher, per an RFI.

Army seeks a next-gen counter-sUAS missile under $150k per round with a 5,000+ unit buy, for 16–25+ km ranges and TRL-7 by late FY2027, interoperable with Coyote/IBCS-M and FS-LIDS/M-LIDS; responses due Aug 20.

B-52 modernization remains on cost and schedule despite a June crash, with two test aircraft planned, a replacement by end-2026, and a prior Nunn-McCurdy cost breach affecting initial upgrade scope.
