The US Army wants to order thousands of next-generation missiles to replace its aging Stingers

The US Army plans to procure 11,000 next-generation NGSRI missiles to replace aging Stinger missiles. Lockheed Martin and RTX are competing to build the new shoulder-fired weapon, which will counter aircraft, helicopters, and larger drones. The replacement is driven by modern air defense challenges and depleted Stinger stockpiles from conflicts and transfers to Ukraine.
