Lockheed Martin Increases PAC-3 MSE Output to Meet Growing Global Demand
Lockheed Martin’s production of the Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) Missile Segment Enhancements (MSE) grew by over 30% in 2024, with plans for an additional 20% increase in 2025 to address rising international demand.
The U.S. Army recently awarded a contract to Lockheed Martin to increase the PAC-3 MSE production capacity to 650 units per year.
Lockheed Martin began expanding production over a year ago, investing in lean manufacturing processes to enhance delivery efficiency. The recent production boost also includes reaching a key milestone in the program, with Lockheed Martin exceeding 500 PAC-3 MSE missiles produced in 2024 and completing its 2,000th missile overall.
