Raytheon, an RTX business, test-fired its new Ground-Launched StormBreaker at a private test range in the Mojave Desert in March.
The test was revealed in a statement on 24 September, with a video available on the RTX website.
Jon Norman, vice-president of requirements and capabilities for Air & Space Defense Systems at Raytheon, said rapid development was enabled through digital engineering and computer modelling.
The ground-launched system was developed in 50 days using Internal Research and Development (IRAD) funds.
