The US Army's Precision Strike Missile (PrSM) completed its shortest ever trip during a production qualification test on 13 November, according to a service announcement on 16 November.

Fired from an M142 High-Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), the missile demonstrated “successful target engagements” at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, according to the army release. The test announcement comes as PrSM is expected to reach early operational capability (EOC) before the end of the year.

The test “satisfies the criteria” for the acceptance of PrSM Increment 1 (PrSM Inc 1) EOC missiles in the first quarter of fiscal year (FY) 2024, according to the army release.

The army declined to provide the exact distance PrSM travelled but said it “performed nominally” on expected flight trajectory, lethality, near-vertical engagement angle, and height of burst. The test range was shorter than the 85 km test performed in 2020, according to a 16 November Lockheed Martin press release.
