Exclusive Interview
with LTG Robert Rasch Jr


  • In your opinion, how will the LRHW propulsion system be designed to achieve the desired range and speed?
  • The LRHW Missile, which is a common all up round with the Navy, is already designed to be hypersonic and maneuverable for increased survivability in threat airspaces. The Army and Navy team continue to optimize system performance.

  • For Operational Effectiveness, how will the LRHW be integrated into existing Army command and control systems?
  • The LRHW system is integrated into existing Army C2 systems.

  • At Army RCCTO, what is the projected unit cost of the LRHW and how does it compare to other existing missile systems?
  • We prefer not to share the costs in our models as we are approaching negotiations. The system is in low-rate production currently building test assets and early production assets. As quantities increase costs will reduce.

  • Finally, what are the potential countermeasures that adversaries could employ against the LRHW and how is the Army planning to mitigate the effectiveness of potential countermeasures?
  • In general, the system uses a combination of speed, maneuverability and other countermeasures to counter threat systems.
