The Precision Strike Missile (PrSM; PRI-zim) is a series of ballistic missiles, both short- and later medium-range, developed by Lockheed Martin to replace the MGM-140 ATACMS. The early variant of this missile, Increment One, is currently in service with both the United States Army and Australian Army. Increment Two will have an anti-ship targeting capability and later Increment variants will have modular payloads capabilities and an increased range out to 1,000 km (620 mi). Australia is a partner in the program to develop Increments Two, Three and Four.
The Precision Strike Missile is currently only capable of being fired from the M142 HIMARS launcher; plans are being explored to make the missile capable of being fired from surface ships through the Mark 41 vertical launching system. Australia and the United States are currently the only nations that possess the missile: Norway's request for export was denied and the United Kingdom is considering purchasing it.
The PrSM, along with other American and Australian missiles, is planned to be manufactured at a complex in Australia, augmenting domestic production in the United States. The missile was first used in combat by the United States during the 2026 Iran war, though its use was limited because of low inventory.
