- Lockheed Martin and the U.S. Army redirected an airborne GMLRS rocket to a moving target during a White Sands test.
- The Strigo and RIG-360 integration may also support Extended Range GMLRS and Precision Strike Missile applications.
Lockheed Martin stock is trading at EUR 581.10 on 29 October 2026 after the company announced a successful in-flight redirection of a GMLRS rocket during a U.S. Army test on 28 October. The live-fire demonstration at White Sands Missile Range connected the rocket with a moving target through Lockheed Martin's Strigo datalink and Remote Interceptor Guidance-360 system, according to the Lockheed Martin announcement.
What the test demonstrates
The rocket was launched from a HIMARS launcher and received updated target information while airborne before destroying the moving target. The company described the result as a program first and said the integration connects existing sensors, launchers and targeting systems without fundamentally changing the combat-proven GMLRS missile.
Lockheed Martin said the datalink package is also applicable to Extended Range GMLRS and the Precision Strike Missile. That points to a broader networked-precision-fires application, but the announcement described a capability demonstration rather than a contract award, production decision or delivery schedule.
Course context for investors
Lang & Schwarz quoted the stock at EUR 581.10 at 16:30:03 Berlin time on 29 October. This was 2.96% above the Xetra close of EUR 564.40 from 28 October. The quote was also 1.82% above EUR 570.70 in the latest relevant AD HOC NEWS report from 29 October at 11:44 Berlin time; this latter comparison is separate from the Xetra day comparison.
The real-time quote of Lockheed Martin stock provides the continuously updated market reference. The test adds an operational data point to the company's recent financial momentum, but it does not quantify an immediate effect on sales, backlog or cash flow.
