🇺🇸👀 An unknown launcher has reportedly been installed on the Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS Carl M. Levin, with its purpose still unclear, according to The War Zone.
▪️ The system is visible on the upper deck near the stern section of the ship.
▪️ Its design resembles the White Spike interceptor launcher developed by Zone 5 Technologies.
▪️ The unit is positioned between the port-side torpedo tubes and the Mk 41 vertical launch system, featuring multiple cells and likely a rotating base for targeting.
▪️ However, its appearance does not fully match any known public systems.
▪️ Another possibility is that it could be a launcher for AGM-179 JAGM missiles, for which Lockheed Martin has previously proposed four-cell modules for installation on Arleigh Burke destroyers.
▪️ JAGM missiles, equipped with radar and infrared guidance, are effective against drones and fast attack boats.
▪️ Beyond combat roles, the system may also be used to deploy decoys or drone countermeasures.
