The Miniature Hit-to-Kill Missile (MHTK) is a small air defense missile developed by Lockheed Martin for the short range air defense (SHORAD) and Counter Rocket, Artillery, and Mortar (C-RAM).
[1] Like the Israeli Tamir and Stunner the MHTK uses hit-to-kill for the terminal phase of interception.
[2] The MHTK was first tested by the US Army in April 2016 as part of an engineering demonstration for the Indirect Fire Protection Capability Increment 2-Intercept program.
In 2018 the US Army awarded Lockheed Martin US$2.6 million to begin formal development of the missile as part of the Extended Mission Area Missile (EMAM) program.
[4] Both active and semi-active radar homing versions have been developed, as of 2018 they share a common configuration.
