Next Generation Missile

The Next Generation Missile (NGM), formerly the Joint Dual Role Air Dominance Missile (JDRADM), was a proposed Beyond-visual-range (BVR) air-to-air missile (AAM) capable of all-weather day and night performance, to replace the AIM-120 AMRAAM and AGM-88 HARM. It was proposed to be cancelled in the Obama Administration's 2013 budget request. A parallel project, the T-3 program has continued. The T-3 missile is aimed at three major targets — enemy aircraft, cruise missiles and air defence networks.
