The development of the ground-launched system took 50 days, using Internal Research and Development (IRAD) funds, according to Jon Norman, vice-president of requirements and capabilities for Air & Space Defense Systems at Raytheon.
Rapid development was enabled through digital engineering and computer modelling.
