<p>RTX Corporation announced successful results from a company-funded ballistic test of its Next Generation Short Range Interceptor (NGSRI), designed to replace the Stinger® surface-to-air missile for the U.S. Army. The test demonstrated the interceptor’s ability to track drone targets and be fired from a man-portable launcher, highlighting technical maturity ahead of a future flight test demonstration. The results have already been achieved and announced by the company. Additionally, in 2025, Raytheon, an RTX business, collaborated with Northrop Grumman to conduct successful tests of Highly Loaded Grain solid rocket motors, which are expected to extend the NGSRI’s range compared to other missiles.
