Lockheed 2 foot long missiles for protecting a battalion from rocket, artillery and mortars

http://nextbigfuture.com/2016/04/lockheed-2-foot-long-missiles-for.html

For the in-development Multi-mission launchers for US Army C-RAM/C-UAV/SAMs.

Lockheed Martin-built Miniature Hit-to-Kill (MHTK) interceptor was successfully launched from a Multi-Mission Launcher (MML) in an engineering demonstration on April 4 at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico.

The launch demonstrated the agility and aerodynamic capability of the MHTK missile, which is designed to defeat rocket, artillery and mortar (RAM) targets at ranges greatly exceeding those of current and interim systems. Today’s launch advances the program, increasing the level of MHTK integration maturity with the MML

Yep, Navy MiG-31s based there with unit #69262 of the 7060 Airbase. Still wondering if all the Navy's Mig-31Bs and BMs are based here.

(Edit: Mentioned unit is the only known Russian Navy unit to operate the MiG-31. All MiG-31B/BMs are probably based there.)

Raytheon's SeaRAM System Bringing Enhanced Improvements to Ships Layered Self-Defense
quote:

Last month , the US Navy successfully tested the SeaRAM weapon system from an Arleigh Burke class (DDG 51) destroyer for the first time. During DIMDEX 2016 maritime defense exhibition held in Qatar last week, Navy Recognition sat down with the Program Director at Raytheon to learn more about SeaRAM.
...
Talking about the specific case of USS Porter, the Raytheon Program Manager said "We removed the Phalanx system and installed the SeaRAM system with Block II missiles. It gives us some enhanced improvements in terms of the layered defense. Phalanx is traditionally a close in, last layer of defense system and RAM extends that capability in terms of ship self defense".

Finally Gerard Hueber (Rear Admiral, USN, Retired), VP of Business Development for Naval and Area Mission Defense at Raytheon concluded by telling us "There has been a number of forums where senior US Navy leadership have addressed the SeaRAM capability as a defensive solution that contributes to the Navy's warfighting initiative of distributed lethality. The Navy has advertised opportunities across the force from combatants to logistics and auxiliary ships that the SeaRAM capability would add to the warfighting readiness of the fleet".

Welp, the media done goofed on the picture.

I searched "RIM-162D" and came up with...



I took one look at the picture and knew that the missile was way too small to be effective for ASuW.

I wish journos wouldn't be so damn lazy.

EDIT: Looked at the caption below and apparently the photo is alleged to have come from the Pakistani Navy.

Seeing as this is obviously not true, this smells suspicious.

This got limited coverage in the News and Snooze cycles approximate My understanding is this incident Happened around approximate time frame as when the media was abuzz with the buzzing of the USN Ship in the Baltic.
