OREANDA-NEWS The Pentagon wants to increase the cost of purchasing the latest high-precision PrSM missiles by 3.5 times, RIA Novosti found out after studying the recently published budget documents of the US Department of War.

For the first time, the US military used these weapons in combat conditions during an operation against Iran a month ago. These projectiles were developed to replace the aging ATACMS systems. They have increased range and accuracy.

According to documents reviewed by the agency, in fiscal year 2027, the US Armed Forces plan to spend $ 1.92 billion on the purchase of PrSM missiles.
