It's June 18, 2024, and
It's June 18, 2024, and the eyes of multiple nations' armies are fixed on the soldiers of the Tennessee National Guard.
From the shores of the Mariana Islands, the guardsmen manning the Army's Autonomous Multi-Domain Launcher unleash two Precision Strike Missiles, PrSM, a next-generation weapon boasting extended range, superior precision, and all-weather striking capabilities.
The missiles hurtle across the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean, their target locked: the retired USS Cleveland, a decommissioned amphibious transport dock, cruising 40 nautical miles away, and, with pinpoint accuracy, strike the moving vessel.
This successful sinking exercise, known as SINKEX, is a powerful reminder of the Army's roots in coastal defense, a role renounced in the Cold War. Now, as tensions rise in the Indo-Pacific region, the Army is once again stepping up to the plate, adapting to the latest challenge of modern warfare: range.
With the success of the PrSM in this exercise, not too far away from the heavily contested South China Sea, an unmistakable message is sent to potential adversaries: the U.S. Army is ready to defend America's interests on any front in any domain at any time.
