American missile strikes at 463 km

The U.S. Navy has launched a new air-to-air missile called the AIM-424 LRAAM, known as Malice. Currently in the testing phase, it is the longest-range missile in their arsenal, with an approximate range of 463 kilometers. It is about 4 meters long, weighs around 680 kilograms, and is equipped with a fragmentation warhead. The missile is designed to operate from F/A-18 Super Hornet and F-35C Lightning II fighters, as well as the future program's F/A-XX fighter. The development of this missile aims to enable U.S. forces to counter advanced air and naval threats, particularly from China, which possesses long-range anti-ship missiles. Although its deployment date is not yet confirmed, its presence in the weapon bay indicates significant progress in testing, potentially enhancing the United States' ability to defend aircraft carriers and engage targets from unprecedented distances.
