Tiberius Aerospace's Sceptre TRBM 155HG 155mm artillery round has a ramjet in its nose that allows it to fly at supersonic speeds and gives it over four times the range of a conventional round.

Boeing and defense company Nammo partnering with the US Army have set a new range record during an indirect fire test of a ramjet-powered artillery shell when a Ramjet 155-mm round was fired from a 58-caliber Extended Range Cannon Artillery (ERCA).

As the age of the smart weapon continues, Northrop Grumman has been awarded a US Navy contract to develop a new self-guided 57-mm artillery shell for the Navy's Mk110 Naval Gun Mount medium-sized gun used on Littoral Combat Ships.

BAE Systems and the US Army have successfully test fired a Sub-Caliber Artillery Long-Range Projectile with Enhanced Lethality from a 155 mm XM907E2 cannon at the White Sands Missile Range with double the range of current precision guided munitions.

The ongoing war in Ukraine is rewriting the playbook on infantry tactics and strategy in a paradoxical way as the conflict has devolved from high-tech 21st century warfare into an old-fashioned artillery duel.

Northrop Grumman has carried out successful ground tests of a Solid Fuel RamJet (SFRJ) tactical engine that the company is developing for the US Army to boost the effective range of a 155 mm artillery shell to over 62 miles.

Raytheon Missiles & Defense is developing a ramjet-propelled shell that will double the range of US military artillery to over 62 miles. The tactical 155mm XM1155 is designed to combine increased range with precision targeting technology.

Raytheon and the US Navy have successfully fired a precision-guided munition that can be fired from a howitzer and zero in on a moving object. The test demonstrated its ability to find its target and withstand the shock of being fired out of a gun.
