Faster, farther and ready for the future: Built with feedback straight from soldiers, Raytheon’s replacement for the Stinger missile will fight drones and deliver new capabilities. “The legacy Stinger is still the best portable air defense system in the world,” said Brenda Ortiz, Raytheon’s vice president for short-and medium-range ground-based air defense, “but what we can do with NGSRI is really going to take it to the next level.” In less than two years, Raytheon designed a prototype, incorporated soldier feedback and successfully completed 10 subsystem demonstrations. By the end of 2025, its creators plan to fly the full missile system for the first time. Learn more: https://rtxcorp.co/4nHTmgE
