Raytheon to produce Antimissile Warheads

Five Warheads are being assembled and work on four others will begin soon.

This group of warheads will be followed by eight assembled in 2015 and nine in 2016, according to Missile Defense Agency data.

It’s the first tangible step in expanding the array of interceptors in Alaska and California intended to protect the U.S. if North Korea or Iran deploy intercontinental ballistic missiles.
