Raytheon AI3 missile intercepts first cruise missile target

Raytheon’s Accelerated Improved Intercept Initiative (AI3) missile has destroyed its first cruise missile.

During the test, conducted in tandem with the U.S. Army, another AI3 missile also destroyed a UAV.

Both intercepts occurred at low altitude over water and in a high-clutter marine environment.
