America unveils secret sky weapon
Lockheed Martin has revealed the development of a next-generation air-to-air missile, known as the "Advanced Tactical Joint AIM-260." The missile aims to counter long-range Chinese threats. It features a greater range and combat capability than current air-to-air missiles, and is expected to give American fighter jets—including the F-22 Raptor and F-35—an edge in engaging advanced Chinese aircraft like the J-20. Its design was carried out in complete secrecy over the years, and it is anticipated that American fifth-generation fighters will be armed with it. Australia is also planning to purchase this missile as part of a $521 million deal to bolster stockpiles and develop advanced defense capabilities, as the U.S. seeks to accelerate the production of precision-guided munitions and reduce its stock depletion.
