I was doing a little research tonight looking for some good information to write about when I came across some formation about a program that the Navy is currently working on. The Archlight Missile Program seeks to upgrade the Navies missile capability annd if it does what they are saying it will it will be lights out for the Chinese in their current Naval buildup. This missile system is so bad that it will give us the capability to put a missile anywhere in the world. They are saying that the range of the system will be 2,300 miles. This means that we will be ale to use a few strategically places ships to reach out and touch anyone, in any place, at any time. This will effectively negate just about every offensive weapon that the Chinese are working on now although they say that their new weapons are defensive.
The new misse will carry a 100 to 200 pound payload, and will be launched from a Mark 41 Vertical Launch System Tube. It can be mounted on just about every type of ship that the Navy has. It can also be launched from under the sea by submarines and from aircraft as well.
This missile will travel at hypersonic speed which will make it more of a surprise to the enemy forces that it will be used against. As far as the custom military ring man is concerned it will be extremely difficult to top this. Our Navy ring customers must be proud of this marvel of upcoming technology.
