- Several media outlets reported this month that the US Navy intends to award Lockheed Martin a sole-source contract.
- The planned integration would allow up to 20 LRASMs from internal launchers and wing pylons.
- CSIS estimates that 450 to 1,000 LRASMs could be expended during the first week of a Taiwan conflict, costing roughly $3 million each.
- Analyses also warn that attacks on Pacific airbases, tanker links, and targeting networks could disrupt B-52 missions.
