RESTON, Va., Feb. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Leidos (NYSE: LDOS) Small Cruise Missile (SCM) has been officially designated as the AGM-190A by the U.S. Air Force, recognizing the SCM's role in addressing the Department of War's critical need for affordable, adaptable stand-off strike capabilities.
The AGM-190A is a 200-pound class mission-adaptable weapon system that, during testing from a C-130 aircraft, demonstrated a standoff range of more than 400 nautical miles. Its modular hardware design and open system software enable the AGM-190A to rapidly evolve for changing mission requirements.
"This capability will provide warfighters with the operational flexibility they need for today's missions, and help them counter emerging threats in the future," said Leidos Defense Sector President Cindy Gruensfelder. "The Air Force's designation of the AGM-190A underscores its confidence in Leidos as a provider of proven, affordable stand-off strike solutions."
The AGM-190A's mission versatility and affordability reflect Leidos' NorthStar 2030 strategic focus on innovative, scalable solutions designed to meet evolving customer requirements.
