The Air Force is moving ahead with a revolutionary high-speed missile that will be tested in the coming weeks, according to officials.
An air-launched test of the booster for the AGM-183A Air-Launched Rapid Response Weapon, or ARRW, is expected in the near future, said Air Force spokesman Maj.
Ethan Stoker. “We’re still under preparation for the booster flight test,” he told Inside the Ring.
An Air Force spokesman said the ARRW is a high-priority arms program being developed under 2017 legislation that gives the military the power to do rapid prototyping of weapons systems.
