๐บ๐ธ BREAKING: Lockheed Martin just landed a $9.5 billion mega contract to mass-produce two of the U.S. militaryโs most powerful missiles: โ LRASM (anti-ship) โ JASSM (air-to-ground) These stealthy, precision-strike weapons are built to cripple enemy defenses from standoff range โ and dominate future conflicts. The U.S. is rearming fast.

What makes LRASM and JASSM worth $9.5 billion? Hereโs why the U.S. is betting big on them: ๐น LRASM โ Anti-ship missile โ Range: ~580 km โ Stealthy, autonomous, GPS-jamming resistant โ Cost: $3M+ per missile ๐น JASSM-ER โ Air-to-ground cruise missile โ Range: ~1,000 km โ Can destroy bunkers, radars, and command posts โ Cost: $1.5Mโ$2M ๐ฅ Next-gen variants (like JASSM-XR) will push ranges beyond 1,800 km โ giving the U.S. global strike reach without entering enemy airspace. The future of warfare is long-range, precise, and invisible.

China could build 5,000 a month for about 1/100th the cost. The only think unique about American weapons is the obscene amount of money the US govt shovels into MIC coffers.

What does the $9.5 billion Lockheed Martin contract cover? The deal spans production Lots 22โ26 for JASSM and Lots 9โ12 for LRASM, running through 2033. It will fund the estimated production of 4,000โ5,000 missiles over the next 5 to 7 years, including: ๐ญ Production will scale across Lockheed facilities in Troy, Alabama, and Orlando, Florida, supporting high-throughput manufacturing. This reflects a broader U.S. shift toward long-range, precision-guided strike capability in response to evolving global threats.

Basically 9 missiles to be delivered until 2075

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is they reason why the US is forever embroiled in endless wars. Forget terrorism, protection or whatever. It's all about corporate profits for the Bankers and Military Industrial Complex in America.

Better make more than 10 a month

America is BROKE There are 1 million (& growing) homeless in America Over 3 million children are homeless or living in shelters People are challenged to buy food And here's a 9.5 BILLION dollar contract for a system that'll never work & that'll never come in on budget Insane

Do they cost less than $20,000 a piece? Can Lockheed produce 1 million per year? If they canโt then the weapon system is too complex and too expensive for todayโs combat.

Wait till China easily shoots them down. More hyperbole is all our country knows.

Imagine still making non-hypersonic missiles. Maybe next a trebuchet. USA is fighter yesterdays wars with yester years weapons.

Overpriced junk. No wonder the USA is over 36 trillions in debt

Not hypersonics. Very nice missiles though.

LRASM Purpose: Designed to destroy enemy naval vessels Range: Over 300 nautical miles JASSM Purpose: Designed for precision strikes against high-value, heavily defended land targets (e.g., bunkers, command centers). Payload: ~1,000-pound (450 kg)

Another junk overpriced, overrated ๐ฉ

Wet dream. You are short of everything. You are short of engineers, materials, people. Everybody is at the shopping mall, eating expensive sh1t, piles of protoplasma wandering around. Take a look at the boeing. Once the jewel in the crown of the american engineering, now a shame.

Better put some hurry on it to catch up with China.

Everyone should note these are not defensive misiles !!!! What possibly would US want to attack ?!?! 7000 misiles over 8 years ..... that's respectable but barely matches Russian production of Iscanders - and I'm sure it's probably 3 to 5 times more expensive!

Good luck

It's just all about trying to destroy targets for some reasons. The other side is attacking too. If things went all the way, they could ramp up quickly all the way. The in-progress rebuilding areas would be attacked too. The ASI-Singularity(Godsend) is the only Global Solution.

Lockheed Martin is trash ๐๏ธ

9.5 $ bi ๐ณ

Seat down warmongers, without chinese rare earths you will rearm nothing.

@CarloMasala1 @GresselGustav @Bundesheerbauer

Doesn't @anduriltech make these?

They are trying to copy russian tech, world is changing fast :)

Iran can make them for under 500 million

Russia, China & NK need to coordinate pre-emptive global strikes.

10 / year? ๐คฃ

Another American shit.

One word โAvangardโ.

About time and we need better ICBMโs, much better and a mobile option.

If they can manage without a single gram of critical minerals from China ๐

#US is increasing its enemy so increasing the weapons fast as well

@biblulz

Great work!
