The US Army used the latest PrSM ballistic missiles against Iran.

March 1 2026 10 899 27

During Operation Epic Fury, the United States used the latest high-precision, solid-fuel Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) short- and medium-range ballistic missiles, developed by Lockheed Martin to replace the MGM-140 ATACMS, in strikes against Iranian territory for the first time. This was announced by US Central Command (USCENTCOM), which released new footage of strikes on targets in Iran following the first 24 hours of the operation.

The PrSM missiles are capable of striking targets at a range of 500 km, with a smaller warhead (91 kg) than the ATACMS (which has a range of up to 300 km), but with increased accuracy. In July 2025, Lockheed Martin began serial production of the PrSM family of missiles. The first contract called for the delivery of 282 Increment One missiles (which lack a multi-mode homing head) to the US Army by the end of 2025, and the second contract called for the delivery of 1296 of these missiles by the end of 2029.

Currently, this missile can only be launched from the M142 HIMARS launcher. According to the US military, the new US defense industry product has made a successful debut.

The President has ordered decisive action, and our brave soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines, National Guard and Coast Guardsmen are answering that call.

– Admiral Brad Cooper, commander of USCENTCOM, reported on the start of the operation against Iran.

That's how it is. They just went and did it.
Without any noise.
We applied it and got results.
But they could have done the same as with Armata.

That's how, unexpectedly and without prior notice, we learned about the new American high-precision medium- and short-range missiles!
Large-scale production of which has already been established (it is no wonder that, with enormous benefit for the growth of its military power, the United States abandoned the "Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces" treaty signed by Judas Gorby)!
This is what happened here in the USSR with the new military "Soviet galoshes" - our citizens and enemies only learned of their existence as a result of unexpected combat use - surprise!
And not the current, perennial, pompous (with puffed-up, Botoxed cheeks and meaningful "eye-making") "stories" of all sorts of "their own bourgeois" anti-Soviet "galoshes" about some kind of "superweapon" that, in their personal opinion, the whole world should fear?!
A striking example is the "advertising epic" with the mega-costly experimental "Armata supertank"!
Even with the recently trumpeted "nut tree" the Kremlinites got a "splash in the water" - "a swing for a ruble, but a blow for a kopeck"!!!

  Dude, don't fuss around with your moans.
  The issue isn't about weapons (there are plenty of them in Russia), but about the determination of some to use them for real instead of snot!

    Listen, "man", don't shut me up with your pathetic "prohibitions" under 100% copy-pasta versions of my comments!
    Judging by all your plagiarist "habits," you're like a jaded dermidont or his clone, the same dull internet bot!
    You're clearly dyslexic - you can't comprehend what you read (or even without reading, you're trying to put in your two cents?! ), because he only repeated in other words what I have been constantly writing about on Reporter in all the post-Euromaidan years!
    But for me, a living man, these words about being a sniveler are usually replaced with an ellipsis, but for you, a computer network bot, look at the freedom you are allowed.
    Regarding "there are enough weapons in Russia" - you, my dear fellow, clearly don't know which ones are in short supply and which ones are missing!
    Otherwise, Putin's Shoigin supporters wouldn't have to beg in Iran and North Korea, asking for not only drones, shells and missiles, artillery and rocket launchers, but even machine guns!
    So, open up and don’t bother me!

    Michel_2, I'm so tired of imported "hat-throwing" types like you (with the characteristic "markings" of "security" network bots), who can't see the forest for the trees!
    If you actually read my comment, to which you deigned to express your brainless "fie", then you should have understood that I was "giving an example" of the differences between the "wunderwaffle" pompous demagoguery (with the premature disclosure of all military secrets even at the stage of creating experimental weapons) of "their bourgeois" Kremlin and the real deeds of secretly deploying large-scale production of ultra-precise missiles and maintaining military secrets right up until the moment of their sudden for mass use!
    And not the Kremlin’s long-term “fuff” with “Armatas”, then with “Poseidons” in single quantities, then with single use "Oreshnik", which only caused ridicule among the enemies due to their obvious "exclusivity", which did not pose any danger to them due to their quantity and pre-known (long before the start of serial production and, especially, use) performance characteristics!
    Regarding the "Iskander analogue" - you clearly don't know the performance characteristics of the Iskander-M, and you're not very knowledgeable about everything else, but I'm not interested in that - your gaps in ignorance, and I'm not interested in talking to you, Michel_2.

        Well, I, an old Soviet tank officer, suddenly had a young "son" - a volunteer adjutant and "explainer of my comments" in the form of a border guard officer (I can see by the officer's cap, although even the demobilized privates liked to hang themselves with "officer's trinkets" and all sorts of badges on their way home like New Year's trees, but it's unclear how someone born in 1981 could serve in the Border Troops of the KGB of the USSR - is this dad's cap, the son/daughter of a Soviet border officer, or a young foreigner, a sympathizer of our USSR, who puts Soviet symbols in his avatar, there are even those in the USA?!)?!
        From your, Grencer81, subjectively biased and rather primitive "explanation" of my comments on the Reporter, it is absolutely obvious to me that you did not read them, but you wanted to "wittily" make fun of them and "funnily twist the meanings"?!
        And after all It was you who stupidly projected your own burning desire to "look smart and handsome" (and so that "the authorities would ask your opinion") onto me (here, hand on heart, admit it to yourself) )!

        Well, you see, Grencer81, you, so "inspired" (by inflated self-esteem??? ) It was very easy to provoke the "woodpecker" and get him to open up, and then there was the Soviet border guard (although we all know and often see one talkative "find for spies", also from the "KGB", albeit with some "periods of disappearance from the radar")!
        How do you know what I really "thought" about before writing what I wrote to you earlier?!
        Our funny "communication" with all of you, the primitive, predictable internet bots who have piled on me, somehow vividly reminded me of the first "Cars" cartoon, about their "innocent fun" with sleeping tractors, remember?! And who do you see yourself as in our case—a "car" or a "tractor" (be honest with yourself? ) ?!
        You, a rather grown-up "smart and handsome idiot" Grencer81, didn't write anything on the topic of the news under this news about a missile attack, but just cheaply "played up the witty" in an attempt to offend another reader-commentator you "don't like"?!
        So, Grencer81, you essentially "sprayed into the water," but didn't produce anything worthwhile in terms of news, you just showed yourself to be a Ringing Void and a complete "woodpecker"!
        Although, to be fair, I admit that in other news you sometimes write sensible comments that I agree with and always give my plus in such cases (since I rarely leave anyone without an assessment, this only happens when the pros and cons are approximately equal in the comment and I doubt which to give preference to, often my assessments are the first and only for all of you, and the pluses then attract pluses, minuses-minuses, such is the paradox of mass consciousness) , and it’s hard to offend me with rudeness and rudeness, and this nickname of mine, which, just like you, my ill-wishers on VO and Reporter have “played on” more than once, I chose it for fun, from a book I was reading about Afghanistan. I later found out that the wrong name for a cat was in that book, and that the word “squeaker” is also in criminal slang, but I didn’t change it, because in such “ridicule from half a turn” the stupidity of every “woodpecker” is immediately visible - my favorite technique, since childhood, then in boxing, and in life, was “drawing fire on yourself”, so that the enemy would open up, act stupid, like you, border guard, publicly acted stupid here )!
        I don't need you as my "adjutant explainer" - you're as useless as a goat's milk.
        Write intelligently about the essence of the Site's materials, and don't be stupid "about the personalities of the wrong commentators"!
        All the best to you, Grencer81!

      It's not the missiles that decide, but the infantry. And until the infantry sets foot on American soil, these bullet-proof guns will be useless.
      The Iskander has many modifications. And this American missile is one of the Iskander's analogues. It's just lighter. Admit it and stop the demagoguery.

      No one has an equivalent to the Kinzhal. Otherwise, they would have used it long ago. Russia currently has a de facto monopoly on hypersonic missiles. Israeli knockoffs aren't Kinzhal. And the Americans and Chinese don't have one either.

        Israel has two types of similar aerial munitions - Blue Sparrow and Air Lora.
        Blue Sparrow - a converted munition from the Silver Sparrow air-launched ballistic missile simulator. It has a range of 300 km, and two of these missiles can be carried by F-16s and F-15s.
        They write that Khamenei's residence was bombed by them.
        Air Lora - designed for aerial munitions based on the Israeli equivalent of the Iskander
        It has a range of 400 km, the F-16 carries one, the F-15 carries two.

  500 km is not an average range at all. Learn the basics, and don't just follow every piece of nonsense you read. And, as the speaker in the post below said, stop moaning! You're yelling at every branch like a market woman.
