Raytheon Technologies is ramping up RIM-116 Rolling Airframe Missile (RAM) production as it works on improving operational missile communication capabilities, Roger Bissmeyer, company's RAM programme director, told Janes .

Future missile iterations will likely feature “next level of communication,” Bissmeyer noted. “When missiles talk to the ship and the ship talks to missiles, that's a whole new level of capability,” he added during a 28 March interview in advance of the Navy League Sea-Air-Space 2024 global maritime exposition, starting on 8 April in National Harbor, Maryland.

The RAM 2B airframe was developed with more capability in mind, with “room for additional software-driven capability”, he said, adding that a missile flew in February 2024 with upgraded software.

Raytheon Technologies and its German industrial partners working in collaboration with the United States and German navies have developed a software factory, he said, with expectations for additional missile software upgrades for years to come.
