The new version of the Precision Strike Missile fits two to a launch pod where the old ATACMS fit one, doubling what a single HIMARS truck can fire, and adds guidance to chase moving targets on land and at sea.
The older ATACMS was already used against Iranian submarines sitting in port this year.
A missile that can track a moving boat from a truck on shore is exactly what a fight around Hormuz demands, but $1.2 billion only starts production, and after seven months of draining stockpiles, the Army needs these by the thousands, and SOON.
