The U.S. Army awarded Lockheed Martin a $1.2 billion contract for its short-range ballistic missiles.The indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract covers initial production and future orders of Increment 2 of the Precision Strike Missile, or PrSM, according to a Lockheed Martin announcement.“This award marks an important step in delivering PrSM Increment 2 to the warfighter,” Dave Griser, Lockheed Martin vice president for precision fires, said in the announcement. “We’re ready to move from flight testing into production and provide the Army with an expanded long-range precision fires capability.”PrSM is intended to replace the Army Tactical Missile System, first fielded in the early 1990s.

It can also hit ships moving at sea, giving land-based launchers a maritime strike capability.Lockheed Martin is currently conducting flight testing of the new PrSM version.“PrSM Increment 2 completed its first flight test in March and its second flight test in August — obtaining critical data during flight, launching from…

Editor’s Note: In this Osight R red dot sight review, Ryan Domke evaluates the new rifle optic on a Springfield Armory SAINT Victor and a Kuna 9mm pistol. Prior to the product’s launch, the author received a sample Osight R from Osight for testing. Osight is relatively new in the marketplace and has been making a name for itself with compact pistol optics. With the new Osight R, however, the company is throwing its name into a completely different category. The Osight R is the company’s first rifle optic, bringing a larger viewing window, multiple reticle options and night vision compatibility, to name a few of the standout features. The Osight R marks the company’s first step beyond pistol optics and into the rifle market. For this review, it was tested on a Springfield Armory SAINT Victor in 5.56mm in addition to the Kuna 9mm. Admittedly, this was my first experience with any Osight optic, so I wasn’t quite sure where to set my expectations, especially with the relatively low price point that the R comes in at. That said, after spending time with it and putting it through its paces on the range, I walked away impressed. First Impressions…

After a Mississippi grand jury found that Nolan Wells’ death was “consistent with drowning” and turned up no evidence of a crime or racial motive, an attorney for one of the men wrongly targeted online said his client intends to hold the accusers accountable.Wells, 19, disappeared July 4 after taking a boat trip to Horn Island, a barrier island along Mississippi’s Gulf Coast, with a group of friends.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin distanced his party from far-left streamer Hasan Piker, calling his past remarks “disgusting and deplorable” while defending Democrats as a “big tent” that encompasses a wide range of political views.”Let me just say that I think it’s absolutely disgusting and deplorable the things that Hasan Piker has said,” Martin said. “But he does not represent the Democratic Party and he certainly doesn’t represent the viewpoints of almost every one of our candidates and our elected officials.”Martin made the remarks after Fox News Digital asked how the party is navigating divisions among Democrats as socialist candidates gain prominence, including Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed.RASKIN CALLS PIKER’S RHETORIC ‘IRRELEVANT DISTRACTION’ AFTER THE STREAMER SAID HE’D VOTE FOR HAMAS OVER ISRAEL “Look, no one should confuse unity with unanimity in the Democratic Party, right?” Martin said. “We are a big tent party. We have lots of different viewpoints and ideas and all sorts of issues.”Piker has been scrutinized for a slew of past comments critical of Israel — one of his most controversial comments was claiming that the U.S. “deserved 9/11.”Martin previously joined other party leaders and prominent…

We are only two games into the NFL season and already multiple teams need to be in full-on panic alert.That’s because the season offers only 17 games and losing the first two is, well, a major problem. Forty teams have started a season 0-2 since 2021 when the league went to a 17-game schedule.Of those 40 teams, only eight rallied to make the playoffs. That means 20% of the teams starting 0-2 since 2021 made the postseason.This page may contain affiliate links to legal sports betting partners.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! FIRST ON FOX: A new study commissioned by Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America found that messages highlighting North Carolina Democratic Senate candidate and former Gov. Roy Cooper’s abortion record shifted support, according to the study, toward Republican candidate Michael Whatley among voters in the state, with a message focused on federal abortion legislation producing the largest movement.The group said it has reached more than 770,000 homes across North Carolina as it deploys a new voter-contact strategy targeting what is expected to be one of the nation’s most competitive Senate races as Republicans attempt to hold onto their majority in the Upper Chamber and fill the seat currently held by retiring Republican Sen. Thom Tillis.Canvassers are targeting persuadable and low-turnout voters with messages focused on abortion and Cooper’s record on the issue, including his support for federal abortion legislation that the group says could override state limits and his actions as governor to veto state-level restrictions.Cooper vetoed North Carolina’s 2023 law banning most abortions after 12 weeks of pregnancy, arguing it would harm women and families. The Republican-controlled General Assembly later overrode his veto, allowing the law to take effect.”When it comes to the…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A federal proposal that could change meal and rest-break rules for flight attendants is drawing opposition from major airline unions even as aviation experts applaud the plan.The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing a nationwide rule that would prevent state and local governments from setting their own meal and rest-break requirements for flight attendants and pilots. Instead, federal aviation rules would apply — according to the agency’s proposed rule document.HIGHER FARES COULD SLAM FLIGHT PASSENGERS TO POPULAR REGION AS AIRLINES SHIFT COSTS: ‘NOT A FAN’The proposal would affect existing state protections, including meal and rest requirements that have applied to some California-based flight attendants, the document states.Under California law, employees generally must receive a 30-minute meal break when working more than five hours, according to the California Department of Industrial Relations. Employees generally must be relieved of all duties during that period for it to qualify as an off-duty meal break. In its proposal, the FAA argues that different state requirements could interfere with airline operations and conflict with the safety responsibilities of flight attendants.Flight attendants are responsible for handling emergency situations, including fires, medical incidents, evacuations and unruly passengers, according to the…
