Lockheed to build low-cost Patriot interceptor using Hit-to-Kill technology - how it works

Lockheed Martin introduced a new, cheaper interceptor for the Patriot air defence system. This PAC-3 ACE missile costs less than half of current options. It aims to help allies counter growing drone and missile threats affordably. Initial production could begin within thirty-six months with industry partners. This development addresses rising global conflicts and competition from new weapon makers.
