Advancements in designing and testing a potential ramjet for the US Army Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) could extend the weapon's range up to 1,000 kilometers, and a prototype could be ready for testing in 2026, according to Major General John Rafferty, head of the service's Long-Range Precision Fires Cross-Functional Team, and budget documents.

Lockheed Martin's PrSM is set to replace the MGM-140 Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) and the army is preparing to deliver an initial version of the weapon (with Northrop Grumman's rocket motor) to soldiers in fiscal year 2023. Although the service has not disclosed the range of this missile, Army Chief of Staff General James McConville told lawmakers on 12 May that it will exceed 500 km.
