The LRMP is designed to enhance the range and accuracy of 155mm artillery by incorporating aerodynamic control surfaces and onboard guidance, allowing for active in-flight manoeuvring even in GPS-denied environments. The flight data from the test aligned with predictive models and will support upcoming demonstrations at greater distances.
“This milestone reflects our commitment to delivering disruptive technologies for precision artillery,” said Scott Forney, president of GA-EMS. “As the U.S. faces rising threats from near-peer adversaries and increasingly contested environments, affordable, mass-produced artillery is critical. LRMP meets that need while proving its ability to perform in extreme conditions and reshape long-range firepower.”
GA-EMS is a leader in the development of electromagnetic systems, hypersonics, and precision-guided munitions, with the LRMP contributing to modernisation goals across multiple military services. The platform offers a scalable and field-proven solution to meet the evolving demands of future combat operations.
