US defence companies have begun competing for the fourth increment of the Precision Strike Missile (PrSM Inc 4), officials said on 27 March.

Lockheed Martin and a team of Raytheon Technologies and Northrop Grumman announced they will participate in the army's science and technology (S&T) effort for an extended-range version of the weapon system, which is a cornerstone of the US Army's long-range fires modernisation effort. Army officials said on 28 March the new weapon – now called the Long Range Manoeuvrable Fires missile – is in the S&T phase that is ahead of Inc 3 in the development schedule.

Commander of Army Futures Command (AFC) General James Rainey said PrSM Inc 1 and its future increments are a part of the “aggressive” pursuit of long-range fires meant to help the service operate across domains. It is one of the 24 systems the army has promised to deliver in fiscal year (FY) 2023, and the Lockheed Martin-designed system will eventually replace the MGM-140 Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS).
