BAE Systems accelerates delivery of advanced LRASM missile sensors
BAE Systems announced completion of all Lot 8 deliveries of its advanced radio-frequency sensor to Lockheed Martin for the AGM-158C Long Range Anti-Ship Missile. The sensor provides guidance and target-discrimination capability for maritime engagements in contested electromagnetic environments, and BAE also upgraded its software and completed verification testing without changing hardware. Manufacturing and engineering are distributed across company facilities in Texas, New York and New Hampshire, with increased capacity supporting faster missile production. Existing BAE sensor delivery contracts extend through 2028; the announcement concerns a completed component-production lot and accelerated follow-on supply, not delivery of entire missiles by BAE.
