CoAspire
RAACM
The Rapidly Adaptable Affordable Cruise Missile, CoAspire's low-cost, mass-producible long-range strike weapon. Its fuselage is additively manufactured to maximize internal fuel volume, and the missile is offered in air-, surface- and ground-launched variants, with submarine launch being explored for maritime-strike missions. The baseline weapon is designed to fly hundreds of miles and to engage stationary and moving targets in demanding electronic-warfare environments; an extended-range RAACM-ER roughly doubles the baseline range. Unveiled at Sea-Air-Space 2026, RAACM was selected under the U.S. Air Force Family of Affordable Mass Missiles (FAMM) framework and is designed so production can be stood up quickly and by allied partners.
