Global Precision Attack Weapon: features, Price, Range

The Global Precision Attack Weapon is a ground attack munition, a small proposed but highly effective weapon against hard or deep buried targets. The main benefit of the GPAW is its capability to reach deeply buried targets, which are difficult to reach using any other conventional weapons. Now the weapon comes with improvement in accuracy and its frequency of collateral damage. It provides strike capability against its designated targets, even against targets that are very well protected and/or located in an environment with challenges. In this article we will discuss the key features and specs of the GPAW.

The Global precision attack weapon was also developed in the US with lockheed Martin and it was officially launched in 2023. Even after its launch, it is still under its development and testing phase. The main purpose of the GPAW is its long range for high-value targets and precision strikes against bunkers, terror caps and ships. Its key benefits include its hypersonic speed with mach 5 plus, GPS and terminal laser guidance, all-weather ready and more collateral damage to the targets. You should know that the Global Precision Attack Weapon Range is very high as compared to others. It now comes with a reduced radar cross-section with ground launchers and the F-35. The estimated price of the global precision attack starts with an estimated price of $1.52 million.
